Researchers from France and Germany are proposing a new concept for the dynamic tuning of the structure of platinum nanoparticles on catalytic converters to enhance their performance—especially after cold starts and in urban traffic—and to reduce the consumption of expensive noble metal.

Its turbocharger with variable turbine geometry makes optimal use of the exhaust gas energy for early and harmonious torque development. The cylinder head, injection system, turbocharger and catalytic converter were modified accordingly for the CNG engine. The A3 Sportback 30 g-tron 1.5 lb-ft) of torque between 1,400 and 4,000 rpm.

The water balance of a polymer electrolyte fuel cell significantly affects efficiency and service life. If the diaphragm dries out, this will lead to a gas breakthrough, while surplus water has the undesired effect of allowing the gases to freely enter the catalytic converter. Exhaust pathway. Humidifier.

In addition, Pinnacle will employ high rates of exhaust gas recirculation and a low temperature combustion strategy, which will improve knock tolerance and reduce heat loss, pumping work, and NO x emissions. Novel Polymer-enhanced Rechargeable Aluminum-Alkaline Battery Technology – $2,000,000. Ionic Materials, Inc.

Theoretically, cars operating on higher ethanol blends than the design point could emit greater concentrations of pollutants in exhaust gas. In the cylinder where combustion takes place, the fuel evaporates before it is burned, and this evaporation helps cool off the air/fuel mixture and exhaust gas.

Lignin is a structural bio-polymer which contributes to the rigidity of plants. While bioethanol is not a drop-in fuel, the residual lignin can be converted to a drop-in fuel via thermal treatments such as gasification or solvolysis. Initiatives such as the LEO Coalition are an important catalyst in this process.

Such devices can recover some of the energy embedded in waste heat, such as that produced by exhaust gas from an engine. All currently used thermoelectrics are semiconductors, so our development of polymer-based materials is novel. Earlier post.). Jaime Grunlan. Of particular interest is the use of these devices in military operations.
