Abnormal combustion - methanol versus gasoline

open access: yes, 1988
Includes bibliographical references.The maximum efficiency of conventional gasoline engines is largely determined by the compression ratio, and this is limited by the onset of kno8k. The maximum cylinder size is similarly constrained.

Heat Transfer Fluids as Co‐Diluents in Localized High‐Concentration Electrolytes for High‐Rate Lithium Metal Batteries With Enhanced Safety

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Two fluorinated ethers, commonly used as heat‐transfer fluids, are explored as co‐diluents in localized high‐concentration electrolytes (LHCEs) for lithium metal‐based batteries. The best‐performing ternary diluent blend boosts ion mobility and cuts overvoltages, thereby improving Coulombic efficiency and cycle life at ≥1 mA cm−2 in zero‐excess pouch ...

Advancements in CO2 Capture Technologies: A Review of Amine Absorption and Alternative Methods for Post‐Combustion Integration

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Carbon capture technologies are poised to become one of the primary focuses regarding the achievement of net‐zero emissions by the year 2050. In these technologies, particular attention is given to post‐combustion CO2 capture, which is more easily implemented at existing power stations and other industries.
