Sinopse

This book explores the use of nanomaterials as diesel fuel additives. It extensively reviews the diesel engine characteristics and the most frequently used nanomaterials and nanofuels and discusses the practical issues regarding the viability of nanomaterials as fuel additives from technical, environmental, and human health viewpoints.Special attention is focused on questions related to the short-term use of nanomaterials in diesel engines, such as:·ááááááá What are theámost important nanomaterial activities in diesel engines?·ááááááá What happensáto nanomaterials at various stages, from the fuel tank to exhaust?·ááááááá What areáthe effects of nanofuel usage on diesel engine characteristics? and·ááááááá What areáthe effects of nanomaterials on diesel engine parts and systems?Given its scope, this book is a valuable resource for researchers and engineers in environmental science, mechanical engineering, and chemical engineering fields, as well as for advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students.
