ABSTRACT:
A method is proposed for operating an internal combustion engine with decomposition gas generated by gasifying methanol into hydrogen and carbon monoxide in a gasification reactor. The enthalpy necessary for gasifying the methanol is obtained from the heat of the exhaust gas of the engine. To attain high efficiency and high power, the decomposition gas is injected at high pressure directly into the combustion chamber of the engine.
