The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing to provide federal funding to Colorado State University (CSU) to design, synthesize and test biofeedstock blends comprised of poly(oxymethylene) ethers (POM-E) which are viable for production, for use in Mixing Controlled Compression Ignition (MCCI) engines, and for reduction of soot and particulate matter (PM) emissions.
