Synthetic Fuels & Future Engines

<p>In an era of rapid electrification the internal-combustion engine is often dismissed as a relic. But behind the scenes chemists engineers and policymakers have been writing a different story-one where liquid fuels are not the enemy but part of the solution. Synthetic Fuels & Future Engines traces the extraordinary evolution of hydrogen combustion advanced biofuels and e-fuels from their obscure origins to their current roles in decarbonisation strategies. With global scope and rigorous factual grounding the book explores motorsport laboratories biofuel plantations aerospace certification trials and the boardrooms where energy policy is born.</p><p></p><p>Each chapter dives deep into the data: gigajoule-per-tonne balances tailpipe-NOx figures investment cost curves and real-world infrastructure bottlenecks. Whether it's Porsche's synthetic-gasoline racetrack telemetry or Brazil's flex-fuel revolution this narrative makes the numbers sing-offering engineers students and general readers alike a clear-eyed tour of combustion's low-carbon second act.</p>
