Nanomaterials and their use in low-cost technologies for reducing harmful emissions from the combustion of liquid fuels in injection systems

Currently, the environmental problems of using injection systems associated with the combustion of liquid fuels are relevant, as is the search for low-cost technologies and fuel economy and searching new types of alternative fuels. Until now, methods have been presented in the works using an air filter in the form of a permeable monomolecular film controlled by an electric field, which serves as a membrane that passes only oxygen [1, 2]. In the future, it is also worth paying attention to the change in the design of the combustion chamber and its geometric characteristics, in particular, the passage of air through the nanomaterial and compare the results [3]. In this paper, low-cost and effective methods of reducing harmful emissions (with choosing optimal combustion parameters) during the combustion of liquid fuels in injection systems will be analyzed and the results of computer modeling and their comparison with experimental data on the KIVA program will be presented [4].
