VENTURA, Calif., April 30, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Clean Diesel Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:CDTI) ("Clean Diesel"), a cleantech emissions control company, announced today that its Heavy Duty Diesel Systems division has won new orders valued at approximately $700,000 for its verified (approved) emission control products.

Clean Diesel's ECS-branded Purifilter® Plus diesel particulate filter (DPF) emissions control system was approved by the NJDEP for retrofitting under the Mandatory Diesel Retrofit Program which requires owners of certain diesel-powered vehicles and equipment, such as dump, recycling and tow trucks, to install control devices to reduce the emissions of fine particulate matter, commonly called "soot." The State is investing in this program, which requires the retrofitting of a variety of vehicles and equipment by established deadlines.
