Isotope (14C and 13C) analysis of deep peat CO2 using a passive sampling technique [PDF]
, 2009 We developed and tested a new method to collect CO<sub>2</sub> from the surface to deep layers of a peatland for radiocarbon analysis. The method comprises two components: i) a probe equipped with a hydrophobic filter that allows entry of ...

Numerical and experimental evaluation of the passive pre-chamber concept for future CNG SI engines
Applied Thermal Engineering, 2023 [EN] The third decade of the 21st century is set to be one of the most relevant in terms of the transition of methods and forms of using different energy sources, with short and medium-term developments on the road to decarbonization. One of the most widely accepted measures on this path is the reduction of CO2 emissions from internal combustion ...

International Journal of Energy Research, 2021 [EN] Hydrogen is one of the most promising alternative fuels for the transportation industry. The use of hydrogen to enable lean burn in internal combustion engines is an attractive solution for reducing CO2 emissions from two points of views: the substitution of carbon-based fuels and the increased thermal efficiency due to lean operation.
