Low temperature combustion (LTC) engines offer improved efficiency and reduced emissions over traditional gasoline spark-ignited and diesel compression-ignition engines. The ability to produce fuels optimized for LTC engines could help increase efficiency and therefore improve fuel economy, insomuch that Federal fuel economy standards could be met. Currently, a fuel performance...
The development and optimization of a single-phase derivatization
technique for small ring aromatics in water are presented. Also
described are the design, optimization and application of a remote
reaction chamber for fiber optic sensing.
Aqueous solutions of the major aromatic compounds in gasoline are
derivatized to o-nitrosophenol-Cu complexes with a...
