Consumption of lubricating oil continues to increase, until 2018 it reaches 1.14 million kL (kiloliters), the increase in use per year increases by around 2.5% then 2019 there will be at least 600,000 used that has not been processed properly. Oil consumption The main target is establishment a pilot facility into alternative fuels. Alternative fuel (BBA) produced from processing as Type Solar m...

The transition to alternative fuels and vehicles presents many challenges that require long-range strategic thought and planning. Fuel producers must make expensive infrastructure decisions about which fuels to support years before they are sold. Vehicle producers must commit to new drivetrains on a similar long-range schedule. Whichever technologies prevail, hydrogen fuel cell, PHEV, BEV or bi...

This paper addresses the growing need for renewable energy education, by looking at the design, development, and implementation of an informal energy education exhibit that was developed to be placed in regional science museums, local schools, and community centers. This study examined the hypothesis that an informal energy education exhibit would yield a significant increase in participant’s k...

Vehicular communication is expected to be a part of the future transportation system and promises to support a plethora of applications for traffic safety, traffic efficiency, and fuel efficiency. Traffic safety applications, such as collision avoidance, demand reliable communications with low latency. To support reliable communications in terms of low frame error rates (FERs), it is necessary ...

Fuel ethanol releases can stimulate methanogenesis in impacted aquifers, which could pose an explosion risk if methane migrates into enclosed spaces where ignitable conditions exist. To assess this potential risk, a flux chamber was emplaced on a pilot-scale aquifer exposed to continuous release (21 months) of an ethanol solution (10% v:v) that was introduced 22.5 cm below the water table. Desp...

Fuel cells (FCs) have received huge attention for development from lab and pilot scales to full commercial scale. This is mainly due their inherent advantage of direct conversion chemical energy electrical as a high-quality supply and, hence, higher efficiency. Additionally, FCs been produced at wide range capacities with high flexibility modularity characteristics. Using the right materials ef...

<em>Liquified Petroleum Gas is a gaseous hydrocarbon produced from gas and oil with the main components being propane butane. The use of LPG fuel was chosen because it able to reduce amount consumption by up 30% more efficient than in general. can be optimized modifying size pilot jet, jet flow valve opening on regulator. purpose this study investigate how big ratio between pertalite is. ...

The effect of fuel composition on gasification process performance was investigated by performing mass and energy balances on a pre-pilot scale bubbling fluidized bed reactor fed with mixtures of plastic waste, wood, and coal. The fuels containing plastic waste produced less H2, CO, and CO2 and more light hydrocarbons than the fuels including biomass. The lower heating value (LHV) progressively...

Recently, dimethyl ether (DME) has been paid much attention as a clean fuel. DME has many advantages as a substitute for liquefied petroleum gas (LPG). Sulfur oxides (SOx), and particulate matters (PM) are not produced at the combustion. Infrastructures and equipments for LPG can be used with slight improvements, because physical properties of DME are similar to those of light hydrocarbons, pro...
