High cost and limited availability of fossil fuels like petrol and diesel .
Due to high level of pollution associated with the combustion of fossil
fuels the need of ZEV(Zero Emission Vehicle) has been generated.
(Presently the battery powered electric vehicle is the only commercially
available ZEV but not successful due to high initial cost, slow recharge
and limited range).
And the most important is the huge availability of Nitrogen gas (78%
of air is nitrogen).
Note: According to Petroleum Conservation and Research Association
petroleum production will be at its peak in 2012 and is likely to
decrease after that.
Cryogenic heat engine uses very cold substances to produce useful energy.
There is always some heat input to the working fluid during the expansion process.
Liquid Nitrogen is the cheapest, widely produced and most common cryogen.
