Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCoconut Oil Based Hybrid Fuels as Alternative Fuel for Diesel EnginesPranil Singh, Jagjit Khurma, Anirudh SinghProblem statement: The use of vegetable oils as a fuel in diesel engines causes some problems due to their high viscosity compared with diesel. Various techniques and methods are used to solve the problems resulting from high viscosity. Approach: One of the techniques is the preparation of a microemulsion fuel, called a hybrid fuel. In this study, hybrid fuels consisting … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2010 · 7,714 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGreen Engines Development Using Compressed Natural Gas as an Alternative Fuel: A ReviewSemin, R. A. Bakar, A. R. IsmailProblem statement: The Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) is a gaseous form of natural gas, it have been recognized as one of the promising alternative fuel due to its substantial benefits compared to gasoline and diesel. Natural gas is produced from gas wells or tied in with crude oil production. Approach: Natural gas is promising alternative fuel to meet strict engine … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,167 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical and Analytical Study of Exhaust Gases Flow in Porous Media with Applications to Diesel Particulate FiltersSuleiman Abu-EinProblem statement: The importance of diesel particulate filter has been increased later because of its ability in making emission reduction of the exhaust gasses. Diesel Particulate Filters (DPF) do two important jobs: gas emissions reduction and noise reduction, the pores spread inside the DPF store some gases and soot emissions and on the other side it prevents some sound or … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,161 accessesView PDFCite
