Diesel began work on an economical engine as early as 1880. The following year he took out his first patents—for machines to make clear ice. Throughout the remainder of the decade he worked on an ammonia vapor engine and (less rigorously) on a solar-powered engine. In 1889 he moved to Berlin to work as Linde s representative there.

This condition is of concern only when equipment operates in subzero ambient temperatures. Since diesel fuel extracted from crude oil contains a quantity of paraffin wax, at some low ambient temperatures this paraffin will precipitate and create wax crystals in the fuel. This can result in plugging of the fuel filters, resulting in a hard or no-start condition. Any moisture in the fuel can also form ice ciystals. Cloud point temperatures for various grades of diesel and other fuels should be at least 12°C (21.6°F) below the ambient temperature. In cases where cloud point becomes a problem, a fuel water separator and a heater are employed. 

The challenges in this process are significant. Gasoline-fueled (and diesel-fueled) vehicles powered by internal combustion engines (ICEs) won the market competition over other motive systems and their performance has since been improved and refined for more than 100 years. Furthermore, a vast infrastructure has been established that manufactures, maintains, and fuels the current vehicular fleet in the United States. 

The use of fuel-cell vehicles does not always result in GHG emission reductions. For example, in the case of hybrid fuel-cell vehicles fuelled with CGH2 from the EU s current electricity mix and from hard coal lead to higher GHG emissions than hybrid ICE vehicles fuelled with crude oil based gasoline and diesel.

As expected, major environmental indicators are affected positively by the introduction of hydrogen cars. Demand for gasoline drops by more than 13% until 2030, compared with BAU, and demand for diesel by about 2%. The difference is significant, as in this scenario only passenger cars are equipped with fuel cells and H2-ICE engines, but neither buses nor light-duty vehicles are expected to be equipped with fuel cells. This means only a small share of diesel fuel consumers is affected, i.e., diesel cars, while buses, light- and heavy-duty vehicles (LDV, HDV) continue to run on diesel. 

Unlike ice, solidified fuels do not expand to form well-organized and structured crystals. Therefore, gelled or solidified fuel, such as diesel fuel and residual fuel oil, will not expand within the container in which it is stored. It will contract and collapse slightly, pulling away from the sidewalls of the tank or container in which it is held. 

Water contamination in diesel fuel is common. When diesel fuel cools, ice crystals may form in the fuel well before the fuel reaches its pour point. These ice crystals will settle to the bottom of fuel tanks and may result in fuel filter plugging and pumpability problems. 

Internal combustion engines (ICEs) are commonly used to drive many mechanical devices. However, they are very complex mechanical devices themselves. ICEs are used in cars, trucks, construction equipment, and many other devices. They can be fueled by gasoline, diesel fuel, natural gas, or other combustible fossil fuels. 

This paper describes the analysis of formic acid in diesel engine exhaust and mine air using ion chromatography (IC) and ion chromatography exclusion (ICE). 

In order to preclude this problem and the necessary frequent regeneration of the anion system s suppressor column, an ion chromatography exclusion scheme was utilized. Samples collected in a mine environment were reliably concentrated by freeze-drying and then analyzed on an ICE system with dilute hydrochloric acid eluent. The precision of the ICE method was experimentally determined to be 2.5% in a concentration range of 1 to 10 yg/mL. The accuracy was not independently determined but good precision and recovery yield confidence that measured values are within 5% of the true value. No interferences were observed in the ICE system due to strong acids, carbonic acid or other water soluble species present in mine air subject to diesel emissions. 

Two demonstration cases of an ICE starting have been done with DLCs module with a diesel engine assembled on a test bench. In this application, an additional low-power battery is sufficient because it is only used for the initial charge of the DLCs which may be performed with low current. Once the engine is launched, the alternator of the vehicle charges the DLCs. It thus results in a reduction of the size of the battery and a greater longevity of operation.
