Green Fuel Technology
Hydrogen Dual Fuel
Hydrogen may be the key to a clean energy future. Hydrogen has the highest energy content per unit weight of any known fuel. When burned in an engine, hydrogen produces effectively zero emissions. It can be produced from abundant domestic resources, including natural gas, coal, biomass and even water.
Ethanol Dual Fuel
Ethanol is considered an EPA oxygenated fuel. It can be produced from biological feedstock that contain sugars. Blends of at least 85% are considered alternative fuel under the Energy Policy Act of 1992. The production of ethanol can be energy efficient as it yields 25% more energy than is used in growing corn.
Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) Dual Fuel
Natural gas or methane is produced from gas wells or in conjunction with crude oil production. Natural gas is clean burning, domestically produced, and readily available. Natural gas engines have shown a decrease of over 90% reductions in carbon monoxide (CO) and particulate matter and more than 50% reduction in nitrogen oxide (NOx) relative to commercial diesel engines. Natural gas can be stored onboard as compressed natural gas or liquefied natural gas (LNG). It can also be blended with hydrogen as a fuel blend. Natural gas can reduce carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas, by 30-40%.
