Dimethyl Ether (DME)-fueled Engine
- Recently, researchers at IIT Kanpur have developed an engine fueled by 100% Dimethyl Ether (DME) that demonstrates higher thermal efficiency and lower emissions compared to diesel engines.
- DME is a renewable alternative to crude oil and can be produced domestically, offering potential energy independence for India.
- The DME-fueled engine emits minimal particulate and soot emissions, eliminating the need for expensive exhaust gas after-treatment devices.
- This technology presents a viable alternative for the agricultural and transport sectors in India, addressing sustainability and environmental concerns.
- By utilizing domestic coal reserves, agricultural biomass waste, and municipal solid waste, the production of DME can ....
