ABSTRACT
The implementation of a dual-fuel combustion strategy has recently been

explored as a means to improve the thermal efficiencies of internal combustion engines
while sitnuhaneously reducing their emissions. Dual-fuel combustion is unfired in
compression ignition (CI) engines to promote the use of more readily available gaseous
fuels or more efficient. advanced combustion modes. Implementing dual-fuel injection
technologies on these engines also allows (t) for improved control of the combustion timing
by varying the proportion of two simultaneously injected fuels. and (2) for the use of more
advanced combustion modes at high load since the two injected filets ignite in succession
reducing the high peak pressures that generally act as a limiting factor. In spark-ignited (SI)
engines. the impkmanation of a dual-fuel combustion strategy saves as an alternative
approach to avoid engine knock. The dual-fuel SI engine relics on the simultaneous
injection of a low knock resistance and high knock resistance fuel to dynamically adjust the
fuel mixture's resistance to knock us required. The dual-fuel SI engine thereby successfully
suppresses knock without compromising the engine efficiency. This chapter discusses the
technological advancements associated to dual-fuel combustion and the respective gains in
fuel efficiency and emissions reductions that have been achieved
