For the past several decades, engineers have been investigating low-temperature combustion as a means of creating engines with diesel-like efficiency and no pollutant emissions.

Optimizing low-temperature combustion to produce the most efficient engine possible also means considering a lot of variables. In fact, the very nature of low-temperature combustion involves a reaction with little active control: You inject the fuels, mixing occurs and then, some time later, combustion starts.
