Researchers develop effective exhaust catalyst for lower temperature exhaust

Green Car Congress

To improve fuel efficiency, advanced combustion engines are being designed to minimize the amount of waste heat in the exhaust. As a result, future generations of exhaust after-treatment catalysts must perform at temperatures that are 100 °C lower than current catalysts.

Hyperbaric Centrifuge Technology Successfully Dewaters Coal Fines

Green Car Congress

the technology reduced the moisture to a level that the waste coal can now be marketed commercially. Waste coal slurry went through the centrifuge at a rate of 30 gallons per minute and was dewatered to 13-19% moisture with coal recovery greater than 97%.
