Introduction
Amid rising fuel prices and stricter environmental regulations, hydrogen is emerging as a breakthrough solution to enhance the efficiency of existing diesel and gasoline engines.
This seminar introduces hydrogen injection technology – a proven system that injects a small amount of hydrogen into conventional combustion engines, reducing fuel consumption, cutting greenhouse gas emissions, and improving engine performance without fully converting to fuel cell vehicles.
Leading experts and technology providers will present real-world studies, demonstrate techniques, and discuss opportunities for retrofitting engines across logistics fleets, maritime vessels, airport vehicles, and railway systems in Vietnam.
