the pollutant emissions discharged at the tailpipe outlet will be so low as to be hardly measurable, and their practical impact on air quality will be negligible. Further development of exhaust gas energy recovery systems with turbo-compounding and possibly chemical reforming should be encouraged. —Reitz et al.

The claim that emissions from diesel engine exhausts from road transport are the main cause of lung cancer in humans thus “ needs to be seriously challenged, ” the paper concluded. —“Diesel Engines Exhausts: Myths and Realities”. Thus to improve the quality of air around us more attention must be given to the primary PM emitters.

The project team’s technology will consist of a novel methane oxidation catalyst (MOC) formulation capable of high conversion efficiencies at the lower exhaust temperatures in ultra-lean burn engines. Typical MOCs have diminished methane conversion efficiency at low temperatures, limiting their synergies with ultra-lean burn NG engines.

The valve train is the “respiratory organ” of combustion engines: it manages the aspiration of fresh air and the discharge of exhaust gases (gas exchange). The basic principle of the valve train—for both intake and exhaust side—is an asymmetric hydraulic pendulum, which can be described as a mass-spring-system. Image: Empa.

It, or a scaled-up version, could also provide a solution for the Asian motor vehicle fleet, in which two-stroke engine vehicles constitute a major share—and contribute significantly to air pollution. This will incur significant extra costs that are proportionally highest yet least tolerable in the lowest power rating segments.

The greatest challenge is the same as that which is plaguing the adoption of fuel cells in the automotive market—the buildout of low-cost green hydrogen infrastructure. Health and safety concerns, like the impact of diesel particulate exhaust emissions on construction worker health, and noise, could be equally important drivers.

Engineers at GM’s R&D Center are developing a new low-cost concept for NO x control from lean-burn spark ignition direct injection (SIDI) engines: passive ammonia SCR. Once the exhaust temperature gets too hot for SCR 1 to work, SCR 2, further away from the engine, picks up the slack. Lean-burn (i.e., Lean-burn (i.e.,

Groundbreaking research in the last 10 years has identified combustion engine strategies that—especially if optimized to run on new fuels—would offer significantly higher efficiency and produce fewer engine-out pollutants than current engines. Fuel research will focus on low-GHG advanced biofuel/petroleum blends.

The alternative-fuel car evolved to reduce exhaust emissions and other problems derived from burning fossil fuels. The convenience and low cost of this concept alone merit attention. For such a low average total energy usage, the PHEV can be charged at a low level of 1 kW to 2 kW from the electric grid.
