The UMA participates in an international study with the Future Power Systems Group of the University of Birmingham (UK) that investigates how to reduce pollutant emissions from vehicles without affecting engine performance.
Specifically, the study has analyzed the use of oxygenated biofuels blended with diesel in a 20-percent volume concentration, noting a reduction in the production of soot –black smoke emitted by cars– by over 90 percent.
