Reducing carbon emissions from long-haul trucks

MIT Energy Initiative

Based on a series of analytical studies, MIT chemical engineers have come up with an idea that would enable long-haul trucks to use clean-burning hydrogen in place of diesel fuel, thereby reducing their carbon emissions. Left to right: Sayandeep Biswas, William Green, and Kariana Moreno Sader are now building an experiment to test and fine-tune equipment key to their promising approach.

H2 underground

MIT Energy Initiative

During MITEI’s Spring Symposium, MIT Assistant Professor Iwnetim Abate (right) said that geologic hydrogen opens up the idea of earth as a “factory to produce clean fuels,” utilizing the subsurface heat and pressure instead of relying on burning fossil fuels or natural gas for the same purpose.
