ABLabs, represented by Armands Jurjevs participated in the business forum organised by the Luxembourg Chamber of Commerce in close cooperation with the Ministry of the Economy and the Luxembourg embassy in Warsaw (co-accredited in Latvia) on 14 March in Riga. The business forum showcased the ICT and sustainable economy sectors in Luxembourg and had an excellent networking opportunity with potential business partners for ABLabs in the fields of sustainability and transport. During the forum welcome speeches were made by H.R.H Grand Duke Henri of Luxembourg, and H.E. Mr Egils Levits, President of Latvia. The forum was a excellent networking part with specially...

ArtuPower is based on the “Gas ultrasonic transducer system and method for operating a diesel common-rail engine” technology, which allows the use of alkane gases, including - liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), natural gas (CNG) and their bio-equivalents (BioLPG, BioCNG) to replace in part or in full, diesel in diesel engines of different capacities equipped with common-rail technology. The technology is filed under International Application Number PCT/EP2020/064219 and has been granted now Certificate of Registration of Patent in the Federal Republic of Nigeria. ABLabs has been actively implementing its intellectual property strategy and the H2O-CH technology has been protected now in a wide...

ArtuPower is based on the H2O-CH technology (Gas Ultrasonic Transducer System and Method for Operating Diesel Common-Rail Engines) and is designed for vehicles with up to 18-liter engine displacement. ArtuPower is a dual-fuel solution that adds CNG/BioCNG and water vapor into the engine to reduce diesel consumption. The main focus of ArtuPower is on all kind heavy duty vehicles, including trucks, specialized vehicles, agriculture machinery, buses and diesel generators and will be promoted in countries/regions with developed CNG/BioCNG infrastructure. In order to strengthen the ArtuPower brand, ABLabs has protected the ArtuPower trademark and the EUROPEAN UNION INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY OFFICE has respectively...

"ABLabs" Ltd (reg. no. 40203197135) implements the project No JU-L-2022/13 under the European Regional Development Fund project "Technology Transfer Programme" (project identification number 1.2.1. 2/16/I/001) under the Startup Activity Support Act programme for the recruitment of highly qualified workers to monitor the performance of equipment in a real test environment and under planned operating conditions, to prepare equipment for certification and to support the certification process (Verification and Validation) in accordance with ISO standards and United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) regulations.

With the onset of the cold season, the development team is putting additional focus on the design of one of the system's operation in extremely cold climate with air temperatures down to - 40 C. As the system operates using water and a mixture of alkane gas and water vapour, it is important to ensure that even in extremely cold conditions the mixture is formed correctly to ensure that the mixture is optimally fed into the engine air intake manifold and subsequently combusted in the engine combustion chamber. In order to ensure that ArtuPower always operates optimally, it is also planned...

We have started the first tests of ArtuPower on a truck. This marks an important stage in the development of the technology and ArtuPower. The technology has been tested in various modes and applications during its development, but there had been no intensive testing on such a high-power engine and environment. The truck will also serve as a base for the development of the beta prototype of ArtuPower, and testing and demonstration of the technology in a real operating environment. The real operating environment will be particularly important in the development process as it will serve for the development of the...

In reaction to many requests regarding ArtuPower and other products developed by ABLabs, we publish an overview of our H2O-CH technology. Our products specifically target the problem of retrofitting existing common rail diesel engines to diesel and alkane gas (such as liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), natural gas (CNG, LNG) and their bio-equivalents (BioLPG, BioCNG) or mixtures thereof (e.g. LPG, CNG, LNG, bio-LPG, bio-CNG, bio-LNG) dual-fuel. The novelty and the invention are in the method and technology how to retrofit common rail diesel engines, so the fuel mix (diesel plus alkane gas) can be burned simultaneously in the engine's combustions chamber. Our...

ABLabs has been featured in the "Latvijas Avīze" supplement "Latvijas Bizness" and information is the information is also available on the la.lv online media portal.

The article also highlights the support the company receives within the project "Development of a new model of CNG-diesel-water equipment "NordicCNG"" supported by the Norwegian Financial Instrument "Green Innovation and...

In August the Latvian Private Equity and Venture Capital Association" (LVCA) organized the Baltic VCA Summit 2022 in Riga. The event featured many high-level activities, including discussions about cooperation opportunities, the latest trends in private equity and venture capital markets. Participants shared experiences in investing and raising capital, as well as discuss the challenges and opportunities that arise from the current turbulent geopolitical and financial circumstances. On the 2nd day of the summit, ABLabs presented its H2O-CH technology to the participants of the summit. ABLabs had the opportunity to showcase its H2O-CH technology to many high-level stakeholders in the Private Equity and...

The ArtuPower product, which is being developed with the support of Norway Grants is a patented protected as part of the “Gas ultrasonic transducer system and method for operating a diesel common-rail engine” (hereinafter H2O-CH) technology. The advantage of the H2O-CH technology is the addition of water vapor to the fuel mixture, which not only ensures a better combustion process of the fuel mixture in the engine, but also ensures the removal of combustion by-products together with the exhaust gases. Additionally, the addition of water vapor to the fuel mixture precludes detonation of the engine under varying loads. The required...
