The world is observing the disastrous consequences of climate change. The recent bushfires in Australia in 2019-2020 have burned 16.8 million hectares of land and killed 1 billion animals (estimated). Although diesel vehicles are widely used all over the world due their innate high power output, adaptability, and affordability; the transport sector is a significant contributor to carbon dioxide, which is immensely accountable for global warming. The production of cleaner alternatives to diesel fuel will help to build a sustainable environment for future generations. The Special Issue contains papers from experts around the world addressing the mentioned issues and suggesting pathways to improve.

Research & information: general --- Technology: general issues --- waste coffee grounds --- ultrasonic-assisted technology --- biodiesel --- optimisation --- compression ignition (CI) engine --- isopropanol --- combustion --- energy indicators --- ecological indicators --- high frequeny reciprocating rig --- palm-sesame biodiesel --- nanoparticle additives --- four-ball tribo tester --- engine characteristics --- tribological characteristics --- corrosion --- automotive materials --- green fuels --- corrosion test methods --- alcohol-to-jet --- alternative fuel --- SAF --- emission --- particles --- particulate matter

As the world enters the third decade of the 21st century, a shift in global energy demand and use is anticipated. The transportation industry is one of the largest energy users, with major environmental consequences. Additionally, with the most ambitious electric vehicle predictions, the bulk of cars sold in 2040 will still have internal combustion engines. As a result, we must continue to explore all options for reducing IC engine emissions, as well as pathways to reduce potential vehicle CO2 emissions. Hydrogen, on the other hand, which can be used in both internal combustion engines and fuel cells, is seen as one of the future's most important energy vectors. In terms of production, storage, and application, this technology still faces several challenges. This Special Issue features original research papers, as well as important review articles on current issues relating to laboratory research and in-vehicle test results on different renewable combustion strategies that seek to reduce environmental impact.
