Project description

Renewable fuels will be an essential part of the future energy and transport system. Large combustion engine can convert theses fuels (back) to mechanical power, for example with application in a power plant or ships. The most scalable renewable fuels are, however, not compatible with the combustion principle of large engines. The research is aimed at investigating feasible concepts.
