Diesel, the Cleanest Fossil Fuel There Is
Few industries have the ability to make a positive impact on the environment in the same way construction and excavation companies can, especially with respect to atmospheric-polluting emissions. And few industries are already doing more. Whether a conscious decision or not, construction and excavat
Analyzing The Pros and Cons of Diesel Engines
There are pros and cons of diesel engines. With respect to the pros of diesel engines, diesel engines pollute less than gasoline and biofuel engines. And, diesel engines are more fuel efficient than gasoline and biofuel engines. That is to say, diesel engines get better “gas” mileage than other
Why Do They Use Diesel in Large Vehicles Rather Than Petrol?
The question, “why do they use diesel in large vehicles rather than petrol?” is a good question. It is a good question because it implies another question, “why don’t they use petrol in large vehicles rather than diesel?” After all, petrol pollutes less than diesel. Right? Wrong, actually.
Do Diesel Engines Pollute More than Petrol Engines? Why or Why Not?
Irrelevant factoids cloud the question, “do diesel engines pollute more than petrol engines?” Gasoline engine manufacturers and oil refining companies would like to have you believe so, but it does not. Simply, the answer is, no, diesel engines do not pollute more than petrol engines. In fact,
Why Do Europeans Drive Diesel Cars? And, Why Don’t Americans?
Asking, “Why do Europeans drive diesel cars?” is another way of asking, “Why don’t Americans drive diesel passenger vehicles?” There are probably a number of reasons why Americans — at least those who live in the United States — don’t drive diesel cars. One reason is the fact that
Diesel vs Gas: Which Fuel Best for the Environment and Which is best for the Wallet
Diesel vs gas and which is better for the environment is a debate that has taken center stage in many scientific communities and political circles around the world. The reason being, there is a massive discrepancy between the number of diesel passenger vehicles in the U.S. versus the rest of the wor
Gasoline Versus Diesel Engines: A Fuel Efficiency Comparison
Gasoline vs diesel engines — with respect to fuel efficiency — is not even a debate. Unlike in Europe and the vast majority of the rest of the developed world, it is not uncommon for people in the United States to be unaware that diesel is a better fuel than gasoline with respect to fuel [&helli
Latest Advances in Diesel Technology And What is To Come
Diesel, in relation to other fossil fuels, is an exceptionally dense fuel. There are a variety of properties that are inherent in dense fuels. Because of the inherent properties of diesel, diesel engines are extremely energy efficient both respect to combustion efficiency and thermal efficiency. H
Myths about Diesel and Diesel Engines Debunked
An American Scientific subscriber wrote to the magazine and asked why European cars are not available in the United States. What prompted the question is the fact that many European passengers, “cars are more efficient and better for the environment.” The answer received was short. According to
Why Diesel Engines are More Fuel Efficient than Gasoline Engines
Diesel engines are more fuel efficient than gasoline engines. That is to say, diesel engines get better “gas” mileage than comparably sized gasoline powered engines. There are two reasons why. First, diesel is a better fossil fuel than gasoline with respect to energy density. And second, diesel
