Basic EGR principle O 2 in the scavenge air is replaced with CO 2. CO 2 has a higher heat capacity thus reducing the peak temperatures. Exhaust gas loop Reduced O 2 content in the scavenge air reduce the combustion speed thus reducing the peak temperatures. Decreased peak temperatures reduces the formation of NO x
