Acetone–Butanol–Ethanol (ABE) is considered a “green” energy resource because it emits less carbon than many other fuels and is produced from biomass that is non-edible. To simulate the use of ABE fermentation products without dehydration and no addition of surfactants, a series of...

Two alternative fuels, a gas to liquid (GTL) fuel from a low temperature Fischer–Tropsch process and a biodiesel produced from animal fats, have been tested using a light duty diesel engine with road load simulation (RLS) under the New European Driving Cycle (NEDC). The engine used has a...

Diesel engine development for use in light-, medium- and heavy-duty road vehicles is mainly driven by more and more stringent emission standards. Apart from air quality related emissions such as nitrogen oxides and particulates, also greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are likely to become of more...
