  • Patent number: 8616163
    Abstract: A lean combustion method is provided for a four-stroke reciprocating internal combustion engine having a cylinder, in which a combustion chamber is delimited by a cylinder head and a piston is movable in a reciprocating manner, the piston being able to vary the volume of the combustion chamber. A fuel can be introduced directly into the combustion chamber, and at least one gas exchange inlet valve and one gas exchange outlet valve are provided for a gas exchange. An intermediate compression can be set in the combustion chamber at a gas exchange top dead center and a main compression can be set at an ignition top dead center.

  • Publication number: 20110311873
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for producing an electrically conductive, porous, silicon- and/or tin-containing carbon material which is suitable in particular for the production of an anode material, preferably for lithium ion batteries; in a first step of the process, preferably crystalline silicon nanoparticies and/or tin nanoparticies and/or silicon/tin nanoparticles are introduced into a matrix based on at least one organic polymer, being more particular dispersed therein, and subsequently, in a second step of the process, the resultant polymer matrix containing the silicon, tin and/or silicon/tin nanoparticies is carbonized to form carbon.

  • Publication number: 20110190118
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for producing a carbon substrate loaded with metal oxides, in particular a carbon material which contains metal oxide nanoparticles and is preferably suitable for use in a catalyst and/or as a catalyst, wherein, in a first process step, nanoparticles of metal oxides are introduced into a matrix based on at least one organic polymer, in particular are dispersed therein, and, in a second process step, the polymer matrix containing the nanoparticles is subsequently carbonised to carbon, optionally followed by a third process step of activation.

  • Patent number: 7874277
    Abstract: A reciprocating engine includes a combustion chamber, and a gas exchange inlet valve and a gas exchange outlet valve for a charge cycle. The method introduces an inlet gas into the combustion chamber in an intake phase; introduces a primary quantity of fuel into the combustion chamber during the intake phase and/or a compression phase; compresses the inlet gas and the fuel in the compression phase; ignites a mixture of inlet gas and fuel formed in the combustion chamber; and expands and discharges an exhaust gas formed by the combustion in an expansion phase. A pilot quantity of fuel is introduced into the combustion chamber before the primary quantity of fuel is introduced.
