A study funded by the California Air Resources Board and conducted by UC Berkeley scientist Dr. Robert Harley. demonstrates that mandatory upgrades to diesel truck fleets serving the Port of Oakland are responsible for significant reductions in two major air pollutants. Currently, pre-2007 model year (MY) trucks cannot serve the ports.

Alternative LNG drive systems for ships reduce air pollutant emissions significantly—CO 2 by up to 25% and NO x by up to 30%, particulate matter by up to 60% and SO x by as much as 100%. Emissions will be further reduced by the use of an advanced dual-fuel marine engine with direct injection and exhaust gas treatment.

These clusters are more reactive than the single atoms and, hence, exhaust gases can be much better removed. Among others, they are applied in nearly all combustion processes to reduce pollutant emissions. To convert pollutants, they usually have to react with oxygen in the catalyst.

The alternative-fuel car evolved to reduce exhaust emissions and other problems derived from burning fossil fuels.

It is much more than that.
