The Freightliner SuperTruck features a low-back-pressure, next-generation aftertreatment system that efficiently removes NO x from the exhaust stream. The aftertreatment system features additional insulation to retain maximum heat energy in the exhaust. Lightweighting: MSI-ACPT, Maxion Inmagusa, Oregon State University, Strick, Toray.

Researchers at Tsinghua University, along with Professor Rolf Reitz at the Engine Research Center, University of Wisconsin-Madison, have investigated for the first time the the characteristics of homogenous charge compression ignition (HCCI) of polyoxymethylene dimethyl ether (PODE). PODE can be synthesized from methanol.

Five fuel blends (all based on pure components) were designed to test the effect of laminar flame speed (LFS) on the lean and exhaust-gas recirculation (EGR) dilution limits of SI combustion with various constant heats of vaporization (HoV). Co-Optima’s premise is that current fuels constrain engine design—and thus engine efficiency.
