In an era where environmental compliance and clean air are at the forefront of industrial operations, AceGet has established itself as a trusted provider of advanced emission control technologies for diesel generator (DG) sets in India. Specializing in Manufacturer RECD for DG Set (Retrofit Emission Control Device) solutions, AceGet offers CPCB-approved systems designed to dramatically reduce harmful emissions from existing diesel generators ensuring regulatory compliance as well as improved air quality.
Why Retrofit Diesel Generators?
Diesel generators are vital for backup and continuous power supply in industries, hospitals, data centers, commercial centers, and residential buildings. However, older generators emit significant amounts of pollutants including particulate matter (PM), nitrogen oxides (NOx), carbon monoxide (CO), and hydrocarbons (HC) which harm air quality and public health. To address this, regulatory bodies in India such as the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) mandate the installation of retrofit emission control solutions on in-use DG sets manufactured between 1 July 2004 and 30 June 2023.
What Is Retrofit Emission Control Device (RECD)?
A Retrofit Emission Control Device (RECD) is an advanced pollution control technology that attaches to the exhaust system of existing diesel generators to reduce harmful emissions significantly. The device uses a combination of Diesel Oxidation Catalysts (DOC) and Diesel Particulate Filters (DPF) to treat exhaust before it reaches the environment capturing soot and harmful particles while converting toxic gases into less-harmful compounds.
By implementing RECD, generators can reduce emissions by up to approximately 96% (depending on engine health, environmental conditions, and fuel quality), helping operations meet stringent CPCB, NGT, and CAQM guidelines without replacing the entire generator set.
AceGet’s Emission Control Solutions
AceGet offers a broad range of RECD systems catering to diesel generators from 25 kVA to 1000 kVA, each designed to handle specific exhaust volumes and pollutant loads. Some of the standout features of AceGet’s RECD Retrofit Emission Control Devices include:
- CPCB & Regulatory Approvals: Devices are compliant with CPCB, NGT, and other environmental norms.
- High Emission Reduction Efficiency: Up to ~96% reduction in PM, HC, CO, and NOx emissions.
- Advanced Technology: Integrated DOC and DPF with regeneration features and catalyst-based filtration.
- Durability & Low Maintenance: Robust stainless-steel housing and automatic regeneration for long service life.
- Compatibility: Suitable for most major DG brands and easy to retrofit on existing units.
- Nationwide Support: AceGet provides installation and technical service across India.
Beyond emission control, AceGet also offers Dual Fuel Kits (DFK) that help reduce fuel consumption and operational costs by enabling diesel generators to run on a mixture of diesel and cleaner fuels such as natural gas.

FAQ: Retrofit Emission Control Device & AceGet Solutions
Q1: What is a Retrofit Emission Control Device (RECD)?
A Retrofit Emission Control Device is a pollution control system installed on existing diesel generator exhausts to reduce emissions of particulate matter (PM), hydrocarbons (HC), carbon monoxide (CO), and nitrogen oxides (NOx). It is designed to help generators meet environmental norms without replacing the entire unit.
Q2: Why is RECD installation required?
In India, regulatory bodies like the CPCB and State Pollution Control Boards require older diesel generators (manufactured between 2004 and 2023) to be retrofitted with emission control devices to comply with emission norms and reduce air pollution.
Q3: Does the RECD affect generator performance?
No when properly designed and installed, a Retrofit Emission Control Device does not negatively impact the performance or efficiency of the DG set.
Q4: How much emission reduction can be expected?
AceGet’s RECD systems can reduce harmful emissions by up to approximately 96%, depending on generator condition, fuel quality, and environmental factors.
Q5: How long does installation take?
Typically, installation of a Retrofit Emission Control Device takes between 2–4 days, depending on the DG set size and configuration.
