With environmental concerns and limited natural resources, there is a need for cleaner sources of energy in the transportation sector. Renewable natural gas (RNG) is being considered as a potential fuel for heavy-duty applications due to its…
The emergence of natural gas as an abundant, inexpensive fuel in the U.S. raises the possibility that expanding natural gas infrastructure could enable a transition to other low carbon fuels. We assess how California's existing fuels policies…
Concerns about environmental degradation and finite natural resources necessitate cleaner sources of energy for use in the transportation sector. In Canada, natural gas is currently being appraised as a potential alternative fuel for use in vehicles…
This paper compares the operating performance of biomethane with both natural gas and gasoline in a small pickup truck. Three different purity levels were used for the biomethane, with the lowest having an 83% methane concentration. The purpose of…
Today the world energy market is in great transition and the demand for clean energy such as liquefied natural gas (LNG) is increasing rapidly. LNG is the main transfer form of long-range for water transportation and short range for land…
Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Sequestration (BECCS) is critical for stringent climate change mitigation, but is commercially and technologically immature and resource-intensive. In California, state and federal fuel and climate policies can drive…
Bioenergy with carbon capture and sequestration (BECCS) is critical for stringent climate change mitigation but is commercially and technologically immature and resource intensive. State and federal fuel and climate policies can drive first markets…

Abundant supply, low prices, and low carbon content may result in an increased use of natural gas (NG) as an alternative transportation fuel. Assessments of the associated climate benefits are sensitive to the climate metric and time horizon selected…
Purpose: One of the most important problems in the road fleet transportation of hazardous materials is truck accidents in which the main influential factors are the type of truck and its safety conditions. This research aimed to propose the pattern…
The paper presents an innovative mobile application enabling the security and safety inspectors of Oil & Gas Transportation to receive in their car all the real-time data necessary to drive them to the visual evidence of the truck drivers unsafe or…
The paper presents a theft-prevention system, called the “Security Sensor System” (SSS), currently deployed on 50+ experimental trucks for Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG) bulk distribution, and integrated on an Oil &
Nearly one-quarter of global greenhouse gas emissions are from the transport sector and around 30% of this are from road freight transport. Seeking to diversify the energy matrix and to reduce air pollution, we studied performance, emissions, and…
Transportation sector in Pakistan has been rapidly growing, leading to an increase in diesel and petroleum consumption, heightened energy import bill, air pollution, and traffic congestion. The China-Pakistan economic corridor (CPEC) is a cluster of…
Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) has proven advantages as a transportation fuel. However in the United States the use of this abundant product as a transportation fuel is limited by the number of liquefaction plants and the undeveloped supply chains that…
Technology developments in directional drilling and hydraulic fracturing have led to increased natural gas reserves. Development of these unconventional resources is an energy intensive process. Prime-movers of unconventional well development were…
Increasingly restrictive limits on Oxides of Nitrogen - NOx levels and desire for low methane emissions from gas engines are driving the change from lean-burn to stoichiometric combustion strategies on heavy-duty on-highway natural gas engines in…
