Analysis of fuel emissions is crucial for understanding the pathogenesis of mortality because of air pollution. The objective of this study is to assess cardiovascular and inflammatory toxicity of diesel and biodiesel ...

The biodegradation of hydrocarbons by natural population of microorganism represents one of the primary mechanisms by which diesel oil and others hydrocarbons pollutants are eliminated or transformed in the environment. ...

In order to abate diesel soot particles many catalysts have been studied at several industrial and academic laboratories. However, the comparison of kinetic data obtained with such catalysts is not straightforward, due to ...

Este trabajo de tesis está orientado al desarrollo de catalizadores estructurados, específicamente papeles cerámicos catalíticos, para su aplicación como filtros de partículas emitidas por motores diésel. Para la preparación ...

The project was carried out in order to obtain current and real data from the Gualaceo automotive fleet; the clear idea of a business related to the constitution of a technical laboratory specialized in the maintenance of ...

This research aimed to determine the ideal mixture percentage between biodiesel and filtered diesel through different proportions of the fuels to reduce opacity levels in trucks with a Common Pipe Direct Injection (CRDI) ...

A scaling-up of the impregnation process for the preparation of catalytic ceramic papers was developed by which Co and Ce oxides were incorporated on to a ceramic paper structure. To this end, a spray generator and a vacuum ...

O objetivo do presente estudo foi investigar possíveis métodos para aumentar a taxa de biodegradação aeróbia de hidrocarbonetos (tratamentos ex-situ). Neste trabalho, processos de biorremediação foram aplicados a um solo ...
