Reported byGood News Network ↗·Sourced by Goodlede
Research from Nigeria's Federal University of Technology Owerri reviewed global studies showing that mixing small amounts of water into diesel fuel (Water-in-Diesel Emulsion technology) can reduce harmful nitrogen oxide and particulate emissions by up to 67% while maintaining or improving engine performance.
The technology is demonstrated in research review; real-world diesel fleet adoption and cost-effectiveness remain to be scaled.
