Liquid Fuel

The switch to natural gas as a fuel for vehicles will accelerate as more natural-gas liquid-fuel dispensers become available, with 70 expected by December, he added. ❋ Isabel Ordonez (2011)

In 1932, a prestigious science journal published his article on liquid-fuel rockets. ❋ GetAbstract (2010)

He worked for the Army, testing liquid-fuel rocketry. ❋ GetAbstract (2010)

Rival ideas withered, among them the thorium liquid-fuel reactor, powered by molten fluoride salt containing thorium. ❋ Matt Ridley (2011)

Iran may soon establish a production line for making liquid-fuel engines, "if it has not done so already". ❋ Unknown (2010)

* The solid-fuel Sajjil-2 missiles, with a 2,000 km range, first tested a year ago, may be a "hedge" after engineers realised that any future Iranian nuclear weapon would weigh over 1,000 kg, and any liquid-fuel missile to deliver long distances it would be "very large and cumbersome", and would require large underground silos which would take a long time to build. ❋ Unknown (2010)

Solid fuel missiles are better for military use (quick to launch and easy to hide), whereas liquid-fuel rockets are often better for satellite launching (more efficient). ❋ Unknown (2009)

Iran said the missile was more sophisticated than earlier models, and propelled by a solid-fuel system, which would make it easier to deploy than liquid-fuel missiles. ❋ Unknown (2009)

So add that to the plug-in hybrid option, which would boost liquid-fuel mileage to somewhere in the 150-250 mpg range and you can see there's no insoluable problem here. ❋ Walter Jon Williams (2009)

That would increase biofuels 'share of the liquid-fuel mix to roughly 16% from 5%, based on U.S. ❋ Unknown (2009)

Micro-Space: Colorado firm headed by Richard Speck has been churning out innovative high-tech products for 31 years, including liquid-fuel rockets, near-hover rockets and an assortment of life-support systems. ❋ Unknown (2008)

Most forecasts predict that liquid-fuel demand world-wide will hit 100 million barrels a day by 2015. ❋ Unknown (2008)
