ALTERNATIVE ENGINE SYSTEMS FOR INDUSTRIAL TRUCKS. DIESEL, BATTERY AND LPG POWERED TRUCKS TODAY AND IN THE FUTURE

ALTERNATIVA DRIVSYSTEM FOER TRUCKAR. DIESEL-BATTERI- OCH GADOLDRIFT NU OCH I FRAMTIDEN

The purpose of this seminar was to discuss technical development and usage of different power systems of industrial trucks in the light of expected requirements concerning emissions, fire protection etc. The following papers were presented: (1) r & D on truck improvement (Bergling, T), (2) Indoor User of Diesel Trucks: (A) Permissible Limit Values and Ventilation Requirements (Wadman, I) (b) Continued Development of Diesel Engines (Haeggh, B), (3) Battery Powered Large Trucks (Aktius, L), (4) safety aspects on fuels (Tillman, R; Hilding, K), (5) Has lpg power any future (flodstroem, H), (6) Can Alternative Fuels or Propulsion System Solve Environment Problems: (A) methanol as a fuel (Swahn, G), (b) The Stirling Engine for Truck Propulsion (Sjoestedt, L), (7) Costs of Various Propulsion Systems (Peterson, B).
