TECO 2030 aims to build hydrogen fuel cell gigafactory in Norway

Green Car Congress

FEBRUARY 18, 2021

The partnership with AVL has already resulted in bringing to production the TECO Future Funnel, a complete exhaust gas cleaning system. IMO, the International Maritime Organization, targets carbon emission cuts of 40% by 2030 and 70% by 2050, compared to 2008 values. The plan is to start fuel cell production in 2022.

Researchers identify ignition behavior of catalysts in catalytic converters; more efficient catalysts for cold-start conditions

Green Car Congress

OCTOBER 8, 2012

Researchers from the Vienna University of Technology (Austria), Chalmers University of Technology (Sweden) and the Fritz-Haber-Institute of the Max-Planck-Society (Germany) have identified the inherent reaction behavior of different catalysts for ignition in the CO oxidation reaction in catalytic converters.

BASF to introduce new LNT+CS4F emissions system at Vienna Motor Symposium

Green Car Congress

MAY 6, 2014

BASF will introduce its innovative LNT+CS4F emissions control system for diesel engines at the International Vienna Motor Symposium, 8-9 May 2014 in Vienna, Austria. In addition, the exhaust backpressure should not increase when changing from the LNT+CSF+UF-SCR system to the two-component LNT+CS4F system.

It is commercializing three initial products: Variable Torque Enhancement System, VTES, an electric supercharging system; SpeedStart12, an integrated belt-driven starter generator system; and TIGERS, an exhaust turbine-driven generator system. It can also help minimize the need for expensive exhaust after-treatment. Earlier post.).

Exhaust emissions from diesel engines were recently labelled as carcinogenic by the International Agency for Research on Cancer. Costs are also high in Luxemburg, Germany, Romania, Italy and Austria, at around €0.08/km Diesel, used by most HGVs, causes more air pollution per kilometer than other fuels such as petrol.

SEPTEMBER 29, 2011

Unlike crankshaft-driven superchargers and exhaust-gas-driven turbochargers, an electric supercharger is mechanically decoupled from the engine, meaning it can deliver the air almost instantaneously into the engine—spinning up to 70,000 rpm in less than a third of a second.

When the car is filled at the pump, an internal system analyses the mix of the two fuel types and adjusts accordingly. When appropriately combined in mid-level ethanol blends, the chemical reactions of these compounds optimize the efficiency at which internal combustion engines operate. Brewster, S.C.,

The earliest Christmas lights used miniature versions of Edison's pear-shaped carbon-filament bulbs, which had fragile exhaust tips that were prone to breaking. In 1910 GE changed its basic design to a round bulb, although still with the exhaust tip. Austria, Germany, and Japan became famous for exporting figural bulbs.
