All too often, however, the higher calorific value of diesel fuel is not taken into account. Diesel fuel contains, dependent to fuel quality, about 14% more carbon per litre [6]. This effect reduces the CO2 emission advantage of diesel cars suggested by favourable fuel efficiency measured in...
these challenges are addressed in very different ways: Europe strongly favours diesel-type combustion cars, while diesel cars in USA are a side issue only. More astonishingly, while since the late 1990s, the European diesel car market boomed, diesel vehicles were removed from...

In a later study, they used a 6 cylinder 8.4 litre DI engine at several speeds and loads and carried out an injection timing sweep [1]. They found that by retarding the injection, the smoke- NOx trade-off shifts towards higher smoke numbers and lower NOx values. Also, retarding the ...
use is made of an amount of hydrogen introduced into the countercurrent reactor from 50 to 2000 Normal litres of H2 per litre of feedstock, preferably from 100 to 1500 Normal litres of H2 per litre of feedstock, and more preferably still from 120 to 500 Normal litres of H2 per litre of ...

The assumption made here is that the lifecycle estimate of GHG per litre of burning HFO to generate electricity will be the same for various types of generators and turbines except for the difference in the energy transformation efficiency. The gross calorific value of HFO is 41.73 MJ/L [45]...
