APPLIED TECHNOLOGY// Ceramic membranes and internal combustion engines, a sustainable alternative
Author: @madridbg, through Power Point 2010, using public domain images.
Dear members of the @project.hope community, who are passionate about technology issues with scientific and practical applications. We would like to introduce you to one of the inventions that have revolutionized the automotive industry, the internal combustion engine, which, with the use of ceramic membranes, does not generate any emission of pollutant gases into the environment. Becoming an alternative with projections towards sustainability.

The new device was developed by a multidisciplinary team that make life Institute of Chemical Technology (ITQ) and the Polytechnic University of Valencia. The researchers managed to eliminate all the harmful gases that pollute the internal combustion of the equipment, through a process of liquefying the internal and surrounding carbon dioxide, which allows the device to operate in a clean and respecting the welfare and environmental care.
Chemically, the integration of the membranes to the engine allows a controlled and selective separation of oxygen from the air, which through a process of oxide combustion is obtained a pure mixture of water and carbon dioxide, which are stored internally and are transformed as the equipment operates, without the need to release it into our environment.

In the opinion of José Manuel Serra, a participant in the project:
"This type of engine has the autonomy and refueling capacity that a conventional one can have today" but "with the advantage that it is completely clean, without any type of polluting emission or greenhouse effect”.
Another advantage of this type of engine is that it can be used as a generator of carbon dioxide on an industrial scale, since it is stored internally under high pressure and with a high level of purity in equipment provided for this purpose, giving it a subsequent use at the level of manufacturing industries.
So far the projections point towards the use of heavy machinery and vehicles for transporting goods, either by air, sea or land that allow them to fulfill the dual purpose mentioned above.
Without a doubt, the design of this type of equipment is a great advance at the technological level and at the level of environmental care. Likewise, we will be attentive to the process of implementation on a macro scale so that we can evaluate the contributions achieved. Therefore, I invite you to leave your perspective in the comment section of our current paper, which will allow us to relate different points of view.

Grateful with the community @project.hope and with all the management team of the same one that they motivate us to continue working in a mutual and balanced growth.
Hello @madridbg
These systems that generate benefits to improve the conditions of the environment. They are very necessary.
I believe that even though electric cars are the line today, anything that can reduce the production of gases should be welcomed.
Greetings @josevas217 I agree with you, after our inventive either technological or scientific and bring benefits to our planet will be well received the other aspect that should be evaluated is the profitability of this .
I actually like the idea but at the same time, I feel like the whole focus of moving away from normal ICE PMS is because alternatives like electric cars and stuff have even produced better results. Look no further than Teslas
Greetings @belemo thank you for stopping by and leaving your comment. Any technological process that aims to improve the planetary systems will be well received, as long as it meets the requirements needed today.
a great invention that faces the same challenges as other technologies that are friendly to the planet "profitability", the big industries only want profitability for them the word "environmental sustainability" is only used in TV commercials so no matter how ingenious a solution is if it does not generate money it is left in oblivion.
Greetings @trabajosdelsiglo in a way are right in the position you take on the economic benefits that are pursued behind the big industries. However, it is necessary to leave the rentier system aside and move towards systems that are more friendly to our environment, hence the need to support this type of advance. Thank you for commenting
Greetings friend @madridbg
Every day, something ends up surprising us, I confess that I had not heard information about internal combustion engine, which will use ceramic membranes, whose effect does not generate any emission of pollutant gases into the environment, without doubt, a breakthrough in this of designing more environmentally friendly technologies. Great publication, best regards.
Greetings @lupafilotaxia, thanks for stopping by and leaving your comment, no doubt this type of technology somehow does not lead to think about a future more oriented to environmental preservation. The ideal would be to continue obtaining economic benefits but respecting the ability of our environment to regenerate.
Very important all technologies that can effectively contribute to the development of humanity in a sustainable and environmentally friendly way, greetings and thanks for sharing.
