Fossil Fuels Renewable Energy and EV Modern Life

Setec Powerr

In any case, when we switch from fossil fuels to renewable energy, we reduce but do not eliminate environmental damage. Current versions of renewable energy such as solar cells and windmills do far less damage to the environment than oil rigs, fracking, and strip mining, but they do damage the environment.

New ORNL non-precious metal catalyst shows promise as low-cost component for low-temperature exhaust aftertreatment

Green Car Congress

However, in addition to their high cost, PGM catalysts struggle with CO oxidation at low temperatures (<200 °C) due to inhibition by hydrocarbons in exhaust streams. As we make engines more efficient, less wasted heat exits the engine into the exhaust system where catalysts clean up the pollutant emissions. Binder, A.

EU research project IDEALFUEL seeks to develop marine low-sulfur heavy fuel oils from biomass; Bio-HFO

Green Car Congress

The use of heavy fuel oils (HFOs) contributes to global warming due to the fossil origin of these fuels and, moreover, generating non-negligible emissions of pollutants such as sulfur oxides. Although cleaner fuels are available, many companies opt for HFOs due to their low cost.
