Smokeless gas start with the Wartsila 46DF engine | Wärtsilä

Watch a LIVE video of a pilot check of the Wartsila 46DF (dual fuel) engine being started in gas mode and showing NO visibility of smoke emissions. There are no low load restrictions in gas mode operation, stable operation is achieved through innovative gas and pilot fuel injections and it can be operated in gas mode from idling to 100% load with no time restriction. #WartsilaKnowsGas

Great minds contributed for a cleaner Mother Earth.

Can we use these fuel instead of diesel, the engine is of the same kind

[dennisschoenaurer]

Last I checked you would still need a catalytic converter and particulate filter to make it be a Continuous running engine

I know that there are street legal methanol burning engines in the United States. Can these engines also be modified to run on methanol ? If methanol burning is indeed possible, how difficult will it be to raise the compression ratio of these engines, to take advantage of methanol's higher octane rating ?

[gerardhernandez]

The titanic 2 will have that kind of engine
