Why?

Issues Application Outlook Conclusion Overview Why alternative fuels?

  • Reduce dependence on foreign oil
  • Harness renewable energy sources
  • New opportunities for agriculture
  • Clean air in cities
  • Reduce transportation costs
  • Reduce greenhouse gas emissions

What are alternative fuels?

  • Ethanol (from corn, wood, …)
  • Natural gas; 85% of NG used in U.S. is domestic

(NG; from domestic gas/oil fields, deep-sea methane hydrate fields, landfills, biomass)

  • Biodiesel (from soybeans, vegetable oils, …)
  • Hydrogen (from NG, water & electricity, coal, …)
  • Electricity (from nuclear/hydroelectric/solar/wind power plants)

Why?

Issues Application Outlook Conclusion Overview

  • Low emission of

– hydrocarbons (ozone, smog) – NOx – particulate matter – Up to 40% reduction of CO2

  • Clean Cities Coalitions:

– Los Angeles: 1500 CNG buses – Kansas City: 200 CNG public utility vehicles – U.S.: 130,000 CNG vehicles – worldwide: over 5 million CNG vehicles

Alternative fuel systems (BAF Tech.)

Current natural-gas vehicles In 2006, Gasoline was $2.84 per gallon, diesel was $2.98 per gallon, and CNG was $1.90 per gasoline gallon equivalent !

Why?

Issues Application Outlook Conclusion Overview

Fuel Storage Compressed natural gas (CNG) is stored on board vehicles at high-pressure (3,000 psi) Liquefied natural gas (LNG) must be cooled to –162 oC. LNG requires only 30 percent of the space of CNG to store the same amount of energy.

The maximal excess adsorption capacity of CH4 in MOF-5 51.7 wt%, or 24 CH4 per MOF-5 formula (i.e., 4Zn). This is reduced to ~15 wt% (115 cc/cc) at room temperature, 35bar. The excess isosteric heat of adsorption (calculated using the Clausius- Clapeyron equation) for the initial CH4 adsorption in MOF-5 is ~12.2 KJ/mol. At high concentration, Qst increases with increasing amount adsorbed, indicating the importance of the interactions between adsorbed CH4 molecules.

The adsorption sites were directly determined from the difference-Fourier analysis of neutron powder diffraction data. Initial adsorption occurs at the MOF5 “cup site” with a well defined CH4 orientation. We did not see any well-defined sites for additional adsorption.
