Diesel particulate filter (DPF) is considered as an effective method to control particulate
matter (PM) emissions from diesel engines, which is included in the mandatory installation …

Engine-dynamometer bench tests were performed to evaluate the severity of engine
operation resulting in oil degradation, set limits for drain intervals and provide …

Nonthermal plasma can achieve diesel particulate filter regeneration under much lower
temperatures (≤ 200° C), showing promise for potential applications. To investigate the …

Obtaining a particle size within the specifications for a pharmaceutical compound in an
industrial crystallization can be a challenging task. The events affecting the final particle size …

Carbonaceous soot accumulated in crankcase oil is known to have an adverse effect on
diesel engine performance, durability, and fuel efficiency. The current study is focused on …

The effective dispersion of carbonaceous soot has a critical effect on the friction and wear
properties and thus decreases energy waste and equipment trouble. Molecular dynamics …

We report a low cost and scalable method to synthesize solar selective nanofluids from
'used engine oil'. The as-prepared nanofluids exhibit excellent long-term stability (presently …

Carbon soot (CS) is a contaminant of engine oil, and the interaction between CS and oil
additives should be understood. This work investigated the interaction between CS and …

While biodiesel is one of many necessary steps forward in a cleaner transportation future,
alkali metal residuals, including Na and K (in the form of oxides, sulfates, hydroxides, and …

Mandated requirements for cleaner and increasingly fuel-e cient vehicles drive innovation in
engine technologies and combustion strategies, as well as in emissions control systems. As …
