The tests compared operational, vibration, and
air emission differences between regular ultralow sulfur diesel (ULSD) fuel and a 76/33 blend of ULSD and Amyris Renewable Diesel (ARD) fuel, which is derived from sugar.

The study determined that ARD reduced
air emissions without any significant
difference in engine performance.
You claim that earth absorb 240W / m ^ 2, and the
difference to what is observed surface
emission of 390W / m ^ 2 is explained by saying that the amount of energy increase from the presence of damp, cold
air at -18 C mean temperature.
In summary, the Conservatives de-emphasized climate change and greenhouse gas
emissions in favour of addressing other forms of
air pollution, a position supported by FoS president Douglas Leahey, who wrote approvingly that «the Conservatives understand that Kyoto is a failed policy, and the
difference between pollution and CO2.»
The four key
differences are: 1) unlike the Energy Policy Conservation Act (EPCA), the CAA [Clean
Air Act] allows for the crediting of direct emission reductions and indirect fuel economy benefits from improved air conditioners, allowing for greater compliance flexibility and lower costs; 2) EPCA allows Flexible Fuel Vehicle (FFV) credits through model year 2019, whereas the EPA standard requires demonstration of actual use of a low carbon fuel after model year 2015; 3) EPCA allows for the payment of fines in lieu of compliance but the CAA does not; and 4) treatment of intra firm trading of compliance credits between cars and light trucks categories

Fossil Fuel is a generic term that isn't quite correct Natural Gasoline is a distilled derivative of oil but almost all ofit is manufactured from cracked and recombined oil derivativeswhile natural gasoline is further refined intoPropane, butane, Proproline (a plastics feed stock), and Natural gasand also separates out sulfur (for fertilizer and explosives) Gasoline can be made from coal («Coaline») or from organic matter («Bio-fuel») but uses a few of oil based feed stocks instead tomake «Sythiline» (artificial gasoline) This gasoline is actually cleaner burning then natural gas with allit's «flare offs» (butane, propane, propoline, sulfur) used in theearly 19th century because it is manufactured only with essentialHydrocarbons Diesel fuel is also becoming more and more Manufactured instead ofdistilled as demand for it rises but improvements in Hydro cleaningis allowing for diesel with no volatile chemicals like sulfur andmercury (taken out for petro - chemical feedstock to make fertilizerand thermometers) In both cases what you have is pure hydro - carbons, a carbon atomwith hydrogen atoms attached to it In the case of gasoline there is CH1, cH7, CH11 When in a combustion engine the gasoline is sprayed into the pistonafter being mixed with
air and the drive of the engine compressesthe the chamber filled with the gasoline mist until it's full downstoke then the spark plug causes the Exothermic reaction... which isthe conversion of the potential energy in the gasoline mist to heatand force, with the force side of that equation shooting the pistonupward and the top of the stroke kicking what's left of thecaramelized gasoline mist out into the Emission control box If the Emulsion control box wasn't there to filter out the burntgasoline particles, any potential additives and volatile chemicalsthen the caramelized gunk hitting
air would create CARBON MONOXIDEin the cooler then the heat of the engine
difference CARBON MONOXIDE can also become a problem if the
Emissions controlBox filter,
air filters or muffler filters is worn or damaged.
Upgrading your furnace or
air conditioners to highly efficient models can make a big
difference in reducing your
emissions.
Sensible heat loss is insignificant (< 10 W m 2) due to small
air - sea temperature
differences, while net
emission of longwave radiation is a relatively constant 50 W m 2 [da Silva et al., 1994].
If all manufacturing companies did this, especially small and mid-sized ones that might not have invested in energy - efficiency the way that big companies like GE or Honda have invested in it, we could make a significant
difference in energy consumption, greenhouse gas
emissions, and
air / soil / water pollution.
The problem is that atmospheric increases don't react on the differential of the
emissions (here expressed in Mt CO2, not MtC), but on absolute levels (in fact mainly the
difference air - ocean pCO2).
