This paper explores nitrogen species formation in temperature (T)-equivalence ratio (ϕ) space under internal combustion engine-relevant conditions using zero-dimensional modeling. The analysis reveals that N2O and NO are formed in a much larger region of

Biofuels as alternative fuels in today’s world are becoming increasingly important for the reduction of greenhouse gases. Here, we present and evaluate the potential of a new alternative fuel based on the conversion of medium-chain fatty acids to biojet (

Abstract Top‐down studies of methane (CH4) emissions often use the average ethane‐to‐methane (C2/C1) ratio of wellhead gas in a basin to attribute emissions to thermogenic or biogenic sources. Biogenic CH4 sources (ruminants, wetlands, landfills, and other methanogenic sources) do not co‐produce ethane (C2H6); the presence of C2H6 indicates a ...

CFD analysis of a diesel–CH4–H2 tri‐fuel engine shows that increasing hydrogen energy share (HES) enhances mixing and accelerates combustion, improving pressure, efficiency, and reducing CO and soot. At 60% HES, ISFC improves 26.2%, soot drops 95%, while NOx increases due to higher temperatures. ABSTRACT The global commitment to achieve net‐zero carbon

This study reveals the regulatory effect of LPG addition on laminar burning velocity of DME/air mixtures, and elucidates the governing mechanisms of flame instability under varying initial conditions. ABSTRACT Liquefied petroleum gas/dimethyl ether (LPG/DME) blended gas is a promising clean alternative fuel, characterized by high efficiency and clean ...

Oxy-fuel combustion is a promising technology for reducing CO2 emissions in the energy sector. In this process, nitrogen from air is replaced with CO2, to ensure the purity of CO2 in the flue gas, altering the properties of the oxidizer.

Abstract While climate‐driven increases in wildfires are altering the composition and function of Arctic ecosystems, the impact of burn severity on longer‐term changes in community composition and ecosystem fluxes remains less understood, creating uncertainty in estimates of the biome's carbon storage capacity.

Designing main-group catalysts for low-temperature methane combustion by ozone
The catalytic combustion of methane at a low temperature is becoming increasingly key to controlling unburned CH4 emissions from natural gas vehicles and power plants, although the low activity of benchmark platinum-group-metal catalysts hinders its ...

Abstract In the western United States (US), the annual wildfire extent increased by 306% over 1984–2022, largely due to a 1,320% increase in forest‐fire area. During this time, associated with the Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO), the tropical Pacific Ocean exhibited a “La‐Niña‐like” trend with an enhanced zonal sea‐surface temperature gradient (gSST)
