Emission History
In 9 years to the market leader in exhaust aftertreatment
Emission partner already exists for 9 years and continues to grow steadily. Not only the number of catalysts has increased, but also the number of employees. Meanwhile a 2-man team has become a stately company with almost 50 employees and it goes even further.
Emission Partner has become the market leader in exhaust aftertreatment in only 9 years and wants to remain so!

Innovation award
Emission Partner receives the German Agriculture Innovation Award for the first 3-way SCR catalyst, which reduces not only NOx but also CO and formaldehyde.
July 2014
Founder Prize Northwest 2014
Emission Partner receives the 2nd prize of the competition “Gründerpreis Nordwest 2014”.
November 2014
2000 biogas catalysts, 1000 emission measurements
Emission Partner coats the two thousandth biogas catalyst and manages the thousandth exhaust gas measurement. The new large exhibition stand and the first product catalogue with an extended product range were presented at the Energy Decentral in Hanover.
December 2014
Jobs are created
Emission Partner creates jobs. In addition to the two managing directors, the company had 14 employees at the end of the year.
January 2015
Symposium biogas
At the symposium Biogas Dirk Goeman gives a presentation on the experiences with the use of the 3-way SCR catalyst for biogas plants.
February 2015
New company building
The new company building in Saterland-Ramsloh is completed. In addition to the large production hall, the company moves into bright offices and modern social rooms.
March 2015
Catalyst winding system
The catalyst winding system developed jointly with Kurre GmbH is put into operation.
April 2015
10,000 biogas catalysts
The 10,000th catalyst is coated.
Oktober 2015
World first: Formaldehyde rapid tester
World first: The formaldehyde rapid tester is developed and launched by Emission Partner.
2016
"Emission Blue"
The SCR system “Emission Blue” is successfully installed on a vegetable oil engine.
End of 2017
Silencer-SCR reactor combination
Emission Partner and Martin Adam GmbH jointly develop a silencer-SCR reactor combination that is particularly convincing in its compact design, which benefits new system builders and retrofitters!
May 2018
30,000 catalysts
The 30,000th catalyst is coated.
June 2018
Further development of the silencer-SCR reactor combination
The silencer-SCR reactor combination developed jointly with Martin Adam GmbH was further developed and perfected. The angular catalyst elements now give way to round catalyst discs and there is only one slot left for them.
October 2018
Introduction of the new AWT sealing: The slip barrier
The engineers in our development department have developed the “slip barrier” to improve the sealing between the catalytic converter and the internal heat exchanger surface.
The individual plates adapt individually to the respective conditions. As a result, the exhaust slip is significantly reduced and the conversion performance increased.
November 2018
SCR exhaust system
No compromises on flexibility.
In cooperation with the companies “Martin Adam GmbH” and “enkotherm” we developed our concept for safe compliance with the 44th BImSchV.
The SCR exhaust system consists of a silencer, SCR catalytic converters, oxidation catalytic converters and an exhaust gas heat exchanger.
