Regulations have been established for the monitoring and reporting of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and fuel consumption from the transport sector, including heavy-duty vehicles. Low carbon fuels combined with new powertrain technologies have the potential to provide significant reductions in GHG emissions while decreasing the dependency on fossil fuels. In this study, advanced combustion control strategies have been used as means to improve upon the efficiency and emissions of a lean-burn ethanol-diesel dual-fuel engine.
