Our research aims to advance the development of alternative fuels by comprehensively assessing their properties, reactivity, and feasibility for practical use. We are driven by the urgent need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and combat climate change. By predicting fuel properties, studying their reactivity, validating chemical models, and evaluating their suitability for engines, we are working towards a cleaner and more sustainable energy future.
We conducted the first-ever studies on naphtha-like low-carbon fuels in advanced low-temperature engines, offering insights into their autoignition behavior compared to gasoline.
Rising global energy demand and reliance on fossil fuels are driving CO2 emissions and erratic weather, making carbon neutrality in the energy sector crucial.
This project investigates how exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) and varying levels of nitric oxide (NOx) affect the autoignition behavior of Euro 6 oxygenated gasoline in advanced combustion systems.
Accurate fuel screening and blending tools are needed for new bio/synthetic fuels, with gasoline quality measured by octane numbers using a CFR engine.
