Carbon Nanotubes Hold the Key to Hydrogen Fuel Tanks for Cars, Buses and Trucks

Hydrogen fuel, because its only byproduct is steam, should be the ultimate in green alternatives to fossil fuels, but it hasn’t delivered on its promise yet because of one enormous stumbling block, storage. Now a team of chemical engineers at the University of Massachusetts Amherst has developed a computational model that shows that carbon nanotubes may offer a surprising solution

EcoCAR Challenge Started by Engineering Students at Virginia Tech

When a college student receives a new car, their first typical thought isn't how they'll dismantle the vehicle's engine and re-engineer it for maximum fuel efficiency and lowest possible emissions. But that's exactly what members of the Hybrid Electric Vehicle Team of Virginia Tech (HEVT) plan to do with a 2009 crossover SUV
