Diesel, Automotive technology, Electronic fuel injection, Internal combustion enginesAbstract
Electronic fuel injection has revolutionized internal combustion engines by upgrading carburetors and providing more precise control over the air and fuel mixture, which has improved efficiency, performance and emissions. The innovation of ethanol injection systems, which optimize the use of ethanol as a renewable fuel, also contributes to cleaner burning and lower emissions compared to fossil fuels. The work is aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), focusing on areas such as environmental sustainability, technological innovation and reducing gas emissions. The SDGs included include: SDG 7 (Affordable and Clean Energy), with the promotion of more sustainable fuels; SDG 9 (Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure), with technological advances in the automotive sector; SDG 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities), with improving the quality of cities; SDG 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production), promoting sustainable practices; and SDG 13 (Action against Global Climate Change), with the mitigation of climate change through the use of ethanol, contributing to a more sustainable future.
