ICL briefing paper estimates that 52% of all small particle pollution from road transport comes from tires and brakes

Green Car Congress

A new briefing paper from Imperial College London estimates that in 2021, 52% of all small particle pollution from road transport came from tires and brakes. million vehicles emit around nine thousand tonnes of tire wear particles annually. It is essential that we better understand the effect of these particles on our health.

New partnership to advance high-temperature PEM fuel cells; focus on heavy-duty applications

Green Car Congress

Traditional PEM fuel cells have a relatively low operating temperature, which makes for a low tolerance to hydrogen fuel impurities and makes waste-heat rejection a challenge for vehicles. Artist’s concept of a heavy-duty vehicle equipped with high-temperature proton exchange membrane (HT-PEM) fuel cells.

Blue World Technologies takes 15% stake in Danish Power Systems; methanol fuel cell vehicles

Green Car Congress

A closed thermal integration enables reuse of fuel cell waste heat for fuel evaporation thereby increasing efficiency. Methanol reforming converts a mix of methanol and water into a hydrogen-rich gas. Waste heat can be utilized for cabin/battery heating and fuel tank can be placed where chassis design allows it.
