The European Union and America remain firm in their objective to decarbonize the transport sector by 2030-2035. But what if we don’t achieve it? There are already brands that have set out to solve ...

SAE Transactions, Vol. 110, Section 3: JOURNAL OF ENGINES (2001), pp. 1234-1252 (19 pages) Using methanol as a fuel, this study examines the chemical-kinetics mechanism responsible for the enhancement ...

German engine manufacturer MAN Energy Solutions is working on a fresh new offering for the maritime industry. Even though the engine is only being released in 2026, it’s already generating hype in the ...

America has an alcohol problem, and it’s not what you think. It’s time to save the internal combustion engine by expanding beyond the single form we currently use for fuel. In sync with President ...

The automotive industry is not the only one actively searching to limit the carbon footprint. As environmental regulations for ships are starting to change, so are the propulsion systems used.

MAN Energy Solutions has unveiled a dual-fuel version of its MAN 175D high-speed engine, capable of operating on methanol, that's scheduled to become available to the market by the end of 2026. The ...

Quite surprisingly, Tesla is back in the news, but this time for moving away from electric power. This step was made when Germany, a country associated with engineering, popularized a new kind of ...

IDTechEx has published a series of articles recently covering hydrogen-and ammonia-powered fuel cell (FC) demand in shipping. One of the most common responses to this has been - what about methanol?

The multihull will be powered by a combination of a methanol-reforming system and a methanol combustion engine. It will also feature a dedicated “methanol room” that is large enough to house fuel ...

As a method of processing biomass into liquid fuel, methanol tends to be less discussed than its more glamorous cousin ethanol. But it is much more efficient, and can accept just about any biological ...

The concept is straight out of a high school physics class: The colder you make your intake charge, the denser, and therefore more powerful, your intake charge becomes. With more atmosphere shoved ...
