The US Department of Energy (DOE) announced $35 million in funding for twelve projects focused on developing technologies to reduce methane emissions in the oil, gas, and coal industries. Typical MOCs have diminished methane conversion efficiency at low temperatures, limiting their synergies with ultra-lean burn NG engines.

Pocket change, really (although, an early tricked-out “Founder’s Fleet” model with all the options and extras included will cost $322k). The Arc Sport has an adjustable tower which raises and lowers, to offer a higher angle to help pull riders up out of the water, or lower clearance in case that’s needed for navigating around a marina.

Considering today’s oil prices and the efforts being made by the IMO, for example with the coming International Energy Efficiency Certificate (IEE), we believe that this product really has come at exactly the right time. Waste heat is used by a heat exchanger to vaporize a working fluid with a boiling point lower than water.

The deep-skirted, cross-bolted design and one-piece structural aluminum oil sump of the Td6 help the engine to absorb combustion noise effectively which improves refinement. A Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) system uses Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) to reduce NO x emissions, ensuring the Td6 achieves US LEV 3 status.

The oil price shocks of the 1970s led the Brazilian government to address the strain high prices were placing on its fragile economy. Brazil, the largest and most populous country in South America, was importing 80% of its oil and 40% of its foreign exchange was used to pay for that imported oil.

Friction-reducing measures include a variable speed water pump, a clutched air compressor, low-viscosity oil and an improved cylinder kit. The Freightliner SuperTruck features a low-back-pressure, next-generation aftertreatment system that efficiently removes NO x from the exhaust stream. Fleet: Schneider, Walmart.

Maritime traffic on the world’s oceans has increased four-fold over the past 20 years, likely causing more water, air and noise pollution on the open seas, according to a new study quantifying global ship traffic. Ships powered by fossil fuels dump oil, fuel and waste into the water and pump exhaust into the air.

A fraction of lead is retained in the engine, engine oil and/or exhaust system, which EPA currently estimates at 5%. Lead emitted in-flight is expected to disperse widely in the environment because lead is emitted as a small particle and can travel widely before depositing to soil, water, vegetation or other surfaces.

The exhaust side shaft features cast iron gears to reverse rotational direction of the exhaust shaft. The engine retains the proven concept of a turbine-integrated exhaust manifold. For durability, it is water-cooled. The VGT and the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) function were developed as a single, complete system.

liter PowerStroke V8 (475 hp and 1,050 lb-ft) is now supposed to be capable of longer intervals between oil changes, with Ford believing this will be a boon to fleet operators. It's all very clever and designed to help encourage fleet managers to stick with Ford, as two-person jobs are now easily achievable by a solo operator.

The alternative-fuel car evolved to reduce exhaust emissions and other problems derived from burning fossil fuels. The combination of harvesting whole forests and burning long-sequestered carbon sources such as coal or oil has impaired the Earth’s carbon cycle at an increasing pace. by Professor Andrew Alfonso Frank.

Because EVs run on electricity, the vehicle emits no exhaust from a tailpipe and does not contain the typical liquid fuel components in ICEVs. In fact, an EV in the New Zealand fleet emits 83% fewer greenhouse gases than a comparable ICEV during its time on the road. Battery metals vs. oil as a source of tension and instability.
