Out of waste comes a clean, high-octane fuel

Article Abstract:

Pure Energy Corp., based in New York, NY, is planning to market the P-series fuel, with 87 to 93 octane. The fuels, produced from cellulosic wastes, contains 45% to 50% of ethanol, 15% to 20% of methyltetrahydrofuran and 30% to 35% of pentanes-plus. The fuels, which are also proposed to be designated as an alternative fuel by the US Department of Energy, can reduce hydrocarbon and carbon monoxide emissions by 35% and 15%, respectively, according to company vice president Irshad Ahmed. P-fuel is developed by Stephen Paul of Princeton University, NJ.

Pressure points for contaminant-free gas

Article Abstract:

The pressure regulator is the most common source of contamination in gas delivery systems. Thus, a high-purity pressure regulator would help in minimizing contamination. The selection of a regulator should be based on several factors including the requirements of process application, body types, single vs dual stage, flow regulation curves.
