Plug-in hybrids (PHEVs) are thought to bring the best of both worlds – a large enough battery to take care of your daily tasks, paired with a gas engine for longer trips or when you can’t find a charger. For this reason, PHEVs have long been thought of as an ideal transitional technology between gas vehicles and electric ones.

Neste Oil has begun trials of Neste Green 100 diesel—a renewable drop-in hydrocarbon replacement for diesel, not biodiesel (fatty acid methyl esters)—in cars in Finland. The fuel’s greenhouse gas emissions over its entire life cycle are 40-80% lower than those of fossil diesel, and its tailpipe emissions are also lower. Earlier post.)

Acetylene black is carbon black derived from acetylene gas. In the process, acetylene gas is exothermally decomposed in a closed system, generating carbon black and hydrogen. The acetylene black and the process gas are cooled from far above the 2000 ?C C reaction temperature to ambient by heat exchangers.
