The piece was co-authored by Scripps Institution of Oceanography at UC San Diego climate and atmospheric scientist V. Black carbon is produced largely by diesel vehicles and the burning of biomass, including in cookstoves in developing countries like China and India. Besides a danger to breathe, ozone lowers crop yields.

The OPGCI technology is attractive from an ARPA-E point of view as it potentially allows gasoline-fueled engines to operate at diesel-like efficiencies, with the reduced cost benefit of only requiring three-way catalysis and lower pressure (and hence lower cost) fuel injection systems. bar was measured at 2000 rpm, with 17.4
