The results indicate that a high diesel injection pressure combined with advanced injection timing enhances the premixing of diesel and ammonia, shortens the ignition delay, and accelerates the combustion process, thereby improving the indicated thermal efficiency (ITE). Increasing the equivalence ratio reduces the compression pressure and temperature while decreasing the oxygen concentration around the diesel spray. This results in a longer ignition delay, a delayed combustion phase, and a combustion duration that initially shortens and then extends. Consequently, the ammonia combustion efficiency initially increases rapidly before gradually declining, while the ITE exhibits a similar trend, first increasing and then decreasing. At an ammonia energy fraction of 70%, the maximum ITE reaches 50.3%, representing an improvement of 6.7% compared with the pure diesel mode.

This study introduces a novel synthesis method for anchoring carbon quantum dots (CQDs) onto cobalt oxyhydroxide (CoOOH) to enhance the performance of the OER. The CoOOH/CQDs composite demonstrates superior electrocatalytic activity with a reduced overpotential of 370 mV at a current density of 10 mA/cm<sup>2</sup> and a low Tafel slope of 88 mV/decade, indicating improved reaction kinetics. The integration of CQDs enhances the electronic properties of the composite, serving as both electron donors and acceptors, thereby facilitating efficient charge transfer during the OER process. Additionally, the catalyst exhibits excellent long-term stability, retaining its performance over 72 h of continuous operation. Due to its cost-effectiveness, high efficiency, and durability, the CoOOH/CQDs composite holds significant promise as a next-generation electrocatalyst for OER applications, contributing to the development of sustainable energy technologies.</p>","PeriodicalId":35,"journal":{"name":"Energy & Fuels","volume":"39 13","pages":"6426–6437 6426–6437"},"PeriodicalIF":5.2,"publicationDate":"2025-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143758777","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
