Abstract The Tailor-made Fuels from Biomass (TMFB) project aims to develop renewable
and environmentally friendly fuels suitable for internal combustion engines (ICEs). The …

While the world is already facing substantial impacts of global warming, the transition
towards a sustainable-energy future is slow because of the sheer scale of global energy …

A shift toward a circular and CO 2-neutral world is required, in which rapid defossilization
and lower emissions are realized. A promising alternative fuel that has gained traction is …

Both the shift from fossil to alternative fuels and the implementation of a pre-chamber
combustion system allow for an increase in the efficiency of an internal combustion engine …

We introduce a microwave (MW)-assisted heterogeneous catalytical setup, which we
carefully examined for its thermal and performance characteristics. Although MW-assisted …

Co-design of alternative fuels and future spark-ignition (SI) engines allows very high engine
efficiencies to be achieved. To tailor the fuel's molecular structure to the needs of SI engines …

Besides electrification of the powertrain, new synthetic alternative fuels with the potential to
be produced from renewable sources come into focus. Methanol is the most elementary …

This study investigates for the first time the influence of the NO2/NOx ratio on formaldehyde-
related effects under close to real conditions using a copper exchanged chabazite type …

Pre-chamber combustion systems combined with bio-hybrid fuels allow for an efficiency
increase of internal combustion engines and a reduction of engine-out emissions …

Accurate thermochemistry computations often require proper treatment of torsional modes.
The one-dimensional hindered rotor model has proven to be a computationally efficient …
