Dimethyl Ether Fueled Tractor
News: Recently, India’s first 100% Dimethyl Ether (DME) fuelled tractor/ vehicle for on- and off-road applications has been developed by IIT Kanpur.
Background:
It is part of 'Methanol Economy' program of NITI Aayog, aiming to reduce India's oil import bill and greenhouse gas emissions.
The project showcased higher thermal efficiency and lower emissions than the baseline diesel engine.
What is Dimethyl Ether Fuel?
It is a synthetically produced alternative fuel that can be directly used in specially designed compression ignition diesel engines for various purposes.
DME is a renewable alternative to crude oil.
It is already put to use in countries such as USA, Japan etc.
Under normal atmospheric conditions, DME is a colourless gas.
It is a clean-burning fuel with low emission and low particulate matter.
Application of DME:
Chemical industry, used as solvent, refrigerant
Ozone friendly aerosol propellant
Why DME?
Low particulate and soot emissions
Alternative fuel option compared to crude oil imports
Converting domestic coal reserves, low-value agricultural biomass waste, and municipal solid waste into methanol and DME can contribute to achieving these goals.
