The Weichai Westport WP 12 HPDI is China’s first engine featuring Westport HPDI technology, delivering the power and performance of the base diesel engine, while replacing up to 95% of diesel fuel with cleaner burning, less expensive natural gas. The market for natural gas in transportation in China is bourgeoning.

We believe that clean distributed power generation from fuel cells will be one of the key technologies that drive our country toward a cleaner energy future. To produce electricity, carbonate fuel cells take a fuel source, such as natural gas or renewable biogas, and internally reform it to create hydrogen and carbon dioxide.

Since this energy loss is primarily thermal in nature and can be attributed to the exhaust, cooling system, and engine and transmission surfaces, Mazda’s R&D team’s central focus is on improving the engine’s thermal efficiency cost-effectively.

Eleven EEV engines between 230 and 730 hp include one ethanol and two gas/biogas versions. Revisions include improvements on the intake and exhaust manifolds; EGR system; turbochargers; pistons and cylinder liners. The exhaust brake has been revamped with more precise control and better low-speed performance.

At the heart of the Capstone process are microturbines that burn liquid or compressed natural gas, a hydrogen blend with natural gas or 100% hydrogen, all of which can be produced from renewable sources. Renewable natural gas made from organic waste is not a fossil fuel and does not involve drilling, making it appealing.

The SKYACTIV-X combines the benefits of a spark-ignition gasoline engine—expansiveness at high rpms and cleaner exhaust emissions— with those of a compression-ignition diesel engine—superior initial response and fuel economy. The ideal (stoichiometric) air-fuel ratio is 14.7:1 This, in turn, reduces cooling losses.

The efficiency of the intake and exhaust ports, and the fuel injection system, has been optimized to maximise torque. The unit is equipped with a water-cooled Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) system with an EGR cooler bypass function, and also benefits from a swirl control valve in the intake manifold.

In the partial load range between 1250 and 3800 rpm, and depending on the power requirement, the intake and exhaust valves of the second and third cylinder are closed by valve clearance adjustment. Further advantages include the semi-integrated intake and exhaust manifolds, which allow compact construction.

In a net-zero future, a future where petroleum and natural gas production enter terminal decline and never return to their past carbon-spewing heights, sulfur production will fall away, too. The world’s needs are going up—from 246 million tonnes today to 400 million tonnes by 2040—but the supply could be drying out.
