Indian Oil Corp orders 15 hydrogen buses

-

 15 new hydrogen-powered buses have been ordered for Indian roads.

Indian bus manufacturer Tata Motors today (June 30) said it had received an order for the buses from Indian Oil Corporation as part of its effort towards ushering a hydrogen economy in the county.


Indian Oil hopes the initiative will act as a stepping-stone for various other key programs, which propose to introduce hydrogen-based mobility on different iconic routes and important sectors in the country.

As well as supplying the buses, Tata Motors will also collaborate with Indian Oil to undertake R&D projects and collectively study further the potential of fuel cell technology for commercial vehicles.


Commenting on the company’s involvement in the landmark project, Girish Wagh, President of Commercial Vehicle Business Unit at Tata Motors said, “We are delighted to win this prestigious tender from IOCL for it adds to Tata Motors’ rich legacy of introducing future-ready technologies for cleaner and greener public transport.





“We have successfully supplied 215 EV buses under FAME I and won orders for 600 EV buses under FAME II. This order to supply PEM fuel cell buses from a company as respected as Indian Oil Corporation further encourages our ongoing efforts on developing India-focused alternative sustainable fuels to transform the future of mobility in India.”

Today's KNOWLEDGE Share Ever wondered how we can reduce plastic pollution in India? The Mysuru-based Defence Food Research Laboratory (DFRL), affiliated with the DRDO, has launched an eco-friendly remedy with the introduction of biodegradable water bottles. Crafted from sustainable Polylactic acid (PLA) material, these bottles not only combat plastic waste but also contribute to reducing the overall carbon footprint. The best thing about this bottle is its all-encompassing sustainability approach – the bottle, cap, and label are all compostable. This innovation, derived from 100% bio-based and renewable sources, sets us on a path towards environmental conservation and fosters a greener and more sustainable future.

Today's KNOWLEDGE Share:High and low shear rate changes in Rheology

-

Today's KNOWLEDGE Share If a relatively high Mw grade flows from thin to thick, as shown in the picture, and if the time needed to fill the thick section is way shorter than the average polymer relaxation time, the polymer will not be able to reach its higher viscosity (corresponding to higher thickness/lower shear-rate). I am assuming here the polymer reached equilibrium low viscosity in the thin section, say for instance because it is much longer. Any pressure prediction not accounting for transient rheology would then overpredict the pressure to fill.Of course the diverging flow will further complicate the situation and mess with the molecular orientation created in the thin section, but to what extent ? Since this is more of a reasonable "conjecture", don't take this for granted, and discuss or share your opinion in the comments. There are hundreds of Rheology papers on the "4:1 contraction flow". Not sure I have ever seen any on the..."1:4 expansio
