Methanol and the Alternate Fuel Economy de Avinash Kumar Agarwal

Methanol and the Alternate Fuel Economy: Energy, Environment, and Sustainability

Editat de Avinash Kumar Agarwal, Anirudh Gautam, Nikhil Sharma, Akhilendra Pratap Singh
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 15 noi 2018
This book discusses the emerging research centred on using methanol- whose excellent fuel properties, easy production and relative compatibility with existing technology- make it attractive to researchers looking to alternative fuels to meet the rising energy demand. The volume is divided into broadly 4 parts which discuss various aspects of the proposed methanol economy and the technological advances in engine design for the utilisation of this fuel. This book will be of interest to researchers and policy makers interested in using methanol as the principal source of ready and stored energy in societal functioning.

He received several awards such as Prestigious Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar Award-2016 in Engineering Sciences, Rajib Goyal prize-2015, NASI-Reliance Industries Platinum Jubilee Award-2012; INAE Silver Jubilee Young Engineer Award-2012; SAE International’s Ralph R. Teetor Educational Award-2008; INSA Young Scientist Award-2007; UICT Young Scientist Award-2007; INAE Young Engineer Award-2005.

Gautam Anirudh is the Executive Director of the Research Designs & Standards Organization, Ministry ofRailways in Lucknow, India. He has completed his Masters in Engine Systems from the University of Wisconsin Madison (USA) and his PhD from IIT Kanpur, India. After working on the maintenance and operations of locomotives in the Indian Railways, he moved to the manufacture of diesel locomotives at Diesel Locomotive Works in Varanasi, India where he worked on the diesel engines for locomotives. He was instrumental in developing in the first indigenous EMD design locomotive in India and has also developed the ALCO locomotive electronic fuel injection system and the mobile emission test car. His main areas of interest are energy production devices, fuel cells, hybrid power trains and sustainable motive power systems, control systems development and structures optimization. He has been the recipient of many awards and is now working on developing locomotive engines for alternative fuel sources and increased fuel and emission efficiency.
