![]() ![]() In this paper we describe modeling studies of alcohol fuel operation in highly turbocharged direct injection spark ignition engines operated at high compression ratio. Waste derived methanol could also be an affordable low carbon fuel. Methanol could potentially be produced from natural gas at an economically competitive fuel costs, and with essentially the same greenhouse gas impact as gasoline. Coal derived methanol is in limited initial use as a transportation fuel in China. Ethanol can also be produced by this process but at lower efficiency and higher cost. Methanol is the liquid fuel that is most efficiently produced from thermo-chemical gasification of coal, natural gas, waste or biomass. Increased substitution of alcohol fuel for petroleum based fuels could be achieved by 1) use in high efficiency spark ignition engines that are employed for heavy duty as well as light duty operation and 2) use of methanol as well as ethanol. It started to give me a headache even though I used it only outside in the fresh air.Non-petroleum based liquid fuels are essential for reducing oil dependence and greenhouse gas generation. My only other comment is that I still wish this product could be made more eco-friendly (so that chemicals don't make it into waterways) and that the scent could be less of a problem for allergy-sufferers. I have a white tank that is now an "orange" tank from iron water, and I may wash it in Tide Ultra Oxi and see what happens. Personally I think it is a bit too strong for washing clothing or intimates, but it is perfect for getting rid of that sweaty tennis shoes smell. Second, the detergent smell is pretty good. So this detergent gets a huge thumbs-up for getting things white! Wearing elbow-length rubber gloves, I used a toothbrush with more detergent to scrub the white trim and patterned ridges here and there. ![]() Well I set a five-gallon bucket of hot water in my driveway (I don't wash my street shoes in my washing machine), poured a half capful of Tide Ultra Oxi into it, and plunked my tennis shoes in for a 5-minute soak. I have been washing my shoes with a hypoallergenic laundry detergent for years (sensitive skin problems, you know), and haven't been too happy with the fact that it doesn't get the rusty-colored staining (we have reddish clay dirt here) off of the white trim on my shoes. I just tried the Tide Ultra Oxi Laundry Detergent today and have got some things to say.įirst, this detergent is AWESOME for getting stains and dirt off of tennis shoes. This might be a pro for anyone looking for an effective detergent that does not have a distinct scent, but for me this was a major drawback. The laundry did smell nice coming out of the wash into the dryer after using Tide Ultra OXI, but after a typical round of drying with drier sheets, the clothes did not have any lingering smell. I have become used to laundry that pairs with an odor eliminating company to provide a lasting scent. The biggest let down for me with the Tide Ultra OXI is the scent. ![]() Tide Ultra OXI had no trouble removing these stains! I might consider keeping some liquid detergent around to make fighting stains a bit easier, but, for the most part, the pods have enough stain-fighting power to fit my needs. I love the strong, long-lasting scent of the pods, but miss the ability to directly apply detergent onto stains, especially deodorant and sweat stains on t-shirts. Oh and it seems to be available everywhere.Īfter moving into a space with a washing machine on a different floor, I switched to detergent pods to lessen my carrying load. But would I use the Tide Ultra OXI again? Yes I would and with no hesitation at all, its a good all around laundry soap with an amazing scent added to it, but if you have a husband and kids who stain clothes easily than pre treat first like you normally would. i had to pre treat with a stain removal spray and re wash them again. i did have a few issues with white clothing tho, as a few stains did not come out even with pre treating with a little of the laundry soap. My laundry room has never smelled better, so thats a bonus for me. Their clothes after drying smelled fresh and so clean, and the smell lingered for a few days after. My husband and kids are very hard on their clothes and I didnt even need to pre treat any stains in their clothes before washing. Every piece of dark/colored clothes washed perfectly using Tide Ultra OXI. I waited to give a review on the Tide laundry soap to give it a fair chance over a few weeks of use, and guess what, I liked it! First of all it is an absolutely perfect laundry soap for colored and dark clothes. Tide Ultra OXI mostly does the trick, and it smells absolutely wonderful. ![]()
