Researchers have developed a new catalyst material that could replace chemicals currently derived from petroleum and be the basis for more environmentally friendly products including octane-boosting ...

Solid propellants usually need multiple additives to improve their burning rates, performance and maximise the energy of the fuel. Scientists from the Indian Institute of Technology Gandhinagar (IITGN ...

In 2019, Purify Fuel patented a nanotechnology-based nanO2® Combustion Catalyst that has demonstrated the optimization of fuel combustion to save fuel, reduce emissions and protect engines. “For every ...

Steam did the heavy lifting of the Industrial Revolution. Then, at the beginning of the 20th century, diesel began to take over the load and to expand into uses that steam wouldn’t have reached, from ...

A Chinese research team illustrated in their study published in Carbon Future on June 21 st, 2024, how a series of phosphorous-modified nanocarbon catalysts could improve green DMM manufacturing.

Researchers at the US Dept of Energy's Argonne National Laboratory, working with Northern Illinois University, have discovered a new catalyst that can convert carbon dioxide and water into ethanol ...

This work investigates the effect of a multifunctional diesel fuel additive package used with RapeSeed Oil (RSO) as a fuel in a DI heavy duty diesel engine. The effects on fuel injectors’ cleanliness ...

Take biomass-derived acetone -- common nail polish remover -- use light to upgrade it to higher-mass hydrocarbons, and, voila, you have a domestically generated product that can be blended with ...

He said some petrol additives have “ethanol protection” which can prevent some dangers in classic cars such as corrosion. He added the additives may also prevent a “breakdown in fuel lines” which is a ...
