UK Opens First Hydrogen Fuel Station

UK’s first hydrogen fuel station has opened at Birmingham University, despite a shortage of potential customers.
The station is the first of 12 outlets planned to open nationwide by 2010 and will serve a campus fleet of five fuel-cell cars. It’s the first part of the infrastructure needed to support the far-off prospect of hydrogen-powered cars […]

Synthetic methanol

Synthetic methanol – a green fuel?
Synthetic methanol’s green credentials arise from its potential to be completely CO2 neutral. The most likely future mass-production of the fuel is by using electrochemical techniques to combine oxygen, hydrogen and carbon:
• Carbon could be sourced from carbon dioxide recovered from the atmosphere using either large scale extraction facilities or […]

New Biofuel Technology

Press Release Body = February 21, 2007, Mahopac, NY, USA - V.O. Tech, LLC (www.VOTechUSA.com), is rolling out the first vegetable oil conversion system for diesel cars and trucks that takes the uncertainty and guesswork out of running these engines on the renewable fuels that they were originally designed to use.

Compressed Natural Gas

Search for an alternative fuel has been a concern for all governments for many years. With the hybrid technology being a success in the US markets, a wider technological application has been sought in this area. With more and more fuels such as ethanol, bio-diesel and hydrogen, added to the alternative fuel list of hybrid […]

Bio-diesel and the hybrid cars

“The use of vegetable oils for engine fuels may seem insignificant today, but such oils may become, in the course of time, as important as petroleum and the coal-tar products of the present time.” The above text is a brief from the speech made by Rudolf Diesel, on his innovative diesel engine which was […]

Hydrogen – the future hybrid fuel

The much talked about California Hydrogen Highway project, initiated by Governor Schwarzenegger, is intended to promote the use of hydrogen as the future fuel in vehicles. The project provides funds for public as well as private partners to install hydrogen fuelling stations and to lease and purchase hydrogen-fuelled vehicles.
Hydrogen hybrid cars work with […]

Better fuels for the future

The scarcity of conventional fuels such as coal and petroleum has turned many car manufacturers to performance-guaranteed alternate fuels. Though the cost of production and the feasibility of these fuels are the priority concerns, the environmental impacts of these fuels are equally important.
Taking into account several factors such as availability, emission, cost of production, […]

Ethanol – an innovative fuel for hybrid cars

Ethanol- the term is familiar in the auto industry now. Thanks to the new hybrid fuel technology that works on a mix of ethanol (ethyl alcohol) and petrol/diesel. Different combinations of these fuels such as E85, E70, etc., are in market. E85 stands for 85% ethanol and 15% gasoline whereas E70 has a 70:30 ratio […]
