A comparative study on the combustion and emissions of a non-road common rail diesel engine fueled with primary alcohol fuels (methanol, ethanol, and n-butanol)/diesel dual fuel
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of the addition of methanol, ethanol, and n-butanol on the combustion characteristics and performance of a common rail dual fuel engine with diesel direct injection and alcohol fuel port injection are examined, followed by a comparative analysis of the test results.
Journal ArticleDOI
Borrowing Hydrogen for Organic Synthesis.
TL;DR: This outlook highlights the diversity of metal and biocatalysts that are available for this approach, as well as the various transformations that can be performed, focusing on a selection of the most significant and recent advances.
A Review on Alternative Fuels in Future Energy System
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors tried to review alternative fuel characteristics, alongside their utilisation and production opportunities, to come up with the optimal solutions, and compared various proposed alternative fuels, alongside with their advantages and drawbacks with an aim to find the most appropriate role for each fuel.
