About the Book

This book provides an overview of clean fuels for sustainable mobility by highlighting on world energy outlook, technic-economic assessment, and the key aspects of the fuel production processes and their possible large impact on various transportation sector segments. The content initially deals with different types of alternative fuels, for example, ethanol, methanol, butanol, hydrogen, biogas, biodiesel, etc. It also focuses on current trends in the automotive sector. Various aspects of the clean fuels production process and formulation to improve the combustion characteristics and efficiency toward sustainability are considered. Some of the important fuels like hydrogen, ammonia, natural gas etc. are discussed in detail. This volume will be useful for the industrial and research community involved in fuels, combustion engines, and environmental research.

About the Author: Dr. Gabriele Di Blasio is currently Research Scientist at the National Research Council of Italy. His main research interest is focused on advanced technologies and fuels for propulsion and energy conversion systems. He has lead various research projects in the field of internal combustion engine technology and fuel development. He has contributed to private and public projects in cooperation with universities, research centres and OEMs. He received his Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering in 2012. Formerly Dr. Di Blasio worked as R&D responsible engineer in the industry sector leading projects on the development of dual fuel systems for heavy duty engines. He serves as an editor and reviewer for several indexed journals of national and international repute. He has authored over 70 publications in peer-reviewed journals, conference proceedings, books, book chapters and technical reports. He is a member of SAE International and SAE Engine committee.
