A well-to-wheel LCA shows that OME<sub>1</sub>could serve as an almost carbon-neutral blending component in diesel while even also strongly reducing the NOx and soot emissions.
Within the Cluster of Excellence “Tailor-Made Fuels from Biomass”, a new reaction sequence to transform biomass into 2-methylfuran has been developed. In present study, influence this potential biofuel on in-cylinder spray formation and evaporation as well engine performance is studied experimentally using direct-injection spark-ignition single-cylinder research engine. The results obtained for are benchmarked against investigation same conventional octane number (RON) 95 fuel ethanol....
Increasing carbon dioxide accumulation in earth’s atmosphere and the depletion of fossil resources pose huge challenges for our society and, particular, all stakeholders transportation sector. The Cluster Excellence ‘Tailor-Made Fuels from Biomass’ at RWTH Aachen University establishes innovative sustainable processes conversion whole plants into molecularly well-defined fuels exhibiting tailored properties low-temperature combustion engine processes, enabling high efficiency low pollutant...
Hydrogen as carbon-free fuel is a very promising candidate for climate-neutral internal combustion engine operation. In comparison to other renewable fuels, hydrogen does obviously not produce CO2 emissions. this work, two concepts of engines (H2-ICEs) are investigated experimentally. One approach the modification state-of-the-art gasoline passenger car using direct injection. It targets gasoline-like specific power output by mixture enrichment down stoichiometric Another use heavy-duty...
Hydrogen-fueled internal combustion engines are a promising CO2-free and zero-impact emission alternative to battery or fuel cell electric powertrains. Advantages include long service life, robustness against impurities strong infrastructural base with existing production lines workshop stations. In order make hydrogen harmless in terms of pollutant emissions as well, NOX at the tailpipe must be reduced low level. Here, application selective catalytic reduction (SCR) catalysts is solution...
Abstract Clean transport requires tailored energy carriers. For heavy-duty transportation, synthetic fuels are promising but must fulfil the key challenges of achieving carbon neutrality while reducing air pollution and ensuring scalability through compatibility with existing infrastructure. Here we show that hydroformylated Fischer–Tropsch (HyFiT) composed optimized alkane–alcohol blends simultaneously address these challenges. First, design HyFiT fuel process flexibly closes cycle by...
The use of modern biofuels in mobile applications has an enormous potential to reduce greenhouse gases as well engine pollutant emissions, such soot or nitrogen oxides. This beneficial effect is directly related the molecular structure biofuel a product optimized production process. To understand influence and emission reduction large variety different fuel properties, this study aims identify desirable characteristics define components. In first step, literature survey carried out, focusing...
