Lifecycle analysis finds Fischer-Tropsch diesel from coal and biomass with CCS can use less fossil energy than petroleum diesel, with GHG close to or below zero

Green Car Congress

A new study by Michael Wang and Jeongwoo Han at Argonne National Laboratory and Xiaomin Xie at Shanghai Jiao Tong University assesses the effects of carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology and cellulosic biomass and coal co-feeding in Fischer-Tropsch (FT) plants on energy use and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of FT diesel (FTD).

Researchers propose low-temperature SOFC unit for reducing NOx and oxidizing HCs in lean-burn engine exhaust

Green Car Congress

The NO x concentration in the exhaust of an automotive gasoline engine with spark ignition can be as high as 4000 ppm. Urea-based ammonia selective catalytic reduction (SCR) is one of the most promising methods for NO x removal from diesel engine exhaust. Therefore, simultaneous HCs emission control is also studied.
