Fossil fuels in the transport and mobility sector can be replaced with several renewable fuels, such as renewable electricity, hydrogen and biomass-to-liquid. When these alternative fuels are used, aspects such as safeguarding supply, economic efficiency, and environmental protection must be taken into account to ensure sustainable change and to create a sustainable society. We introduce a scen...

The world is presently confronted with the twin crises of fossil fuel depletion and environmental degradation. The search for alternative fuels, which promise a harmonious correlation with sustainable development, energy conservation, efficiency and environmental preservation, has become highly pronounced in the present context. The fuels of bio-origin can provide a feasible solution to this wo...

The upcoming stringent emission regulations and the depletion of oil resources have led to the development of alternate energy sources. In the present study the performance and emission characteristics of a singlecylinder directinjection diesel engine under neat diesel operation and blends of alternative fuels with pure diesel are examined. The hot outlet water from the engine was circulated in...
