Some believe once the battery is exhausted you can’t run the e-motor and therefore you’re left with “a p**s weak four-cylinder petrol engine” says SeanGun91, complaining he can’t now tow his 8000kg off-road van for 2400km across the Alps without stopping. Unlike, it seems, keyboard warriors quick to put the boot in to anything plug-in.

ORNL Researchers Find Thermochemical Exhaust Heat Recuperation In Internal Combustion Engines Could Provide Substantial Boosts in Second-Law Efficiency

Green Car Congress

When reforming is not used, the fuel and exhaust pass through CV2 unchanged. The basic concept of TCR involves using exhaust heat to promote on-board reforming of hydrocarbon fuels into syngas (a mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen). In addition, ethanol produced by fermentation typically contains considerable water.

An electrically driven compressor for precise exhaust gas recirculation is also used. Then we modify the timing and pressure of the injection, among other things, and look at exhaust emission values and fuel consumption. This is done via exhaust gas recirculation (EGR). Water is formed as a by-product.
