What are Some Examples of Fuel-Flexible Catalytic Systems?
Several technologies exemplify fuel flexibility through the use of advanced catalysis:
Internal Combustion Engines: Modern engines can operate on a mix of gasoline, ethanol, and even methanol, thanks to catalytic converters that reduce emissions. Fuel Cells: Proton-exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells can utilize hydrogen from various sources, including natural gas and renewable electrolysis. Industrial Reactors: Chemical reactors in industries can switch between natural gas and biogas, using catalysts that can handle different feedstocks.
