Geneva, IL, February 10, 2022 — ClearFlame Engine Technologies, a company empowering rapid decarbonization for global heavy-duty industry, announced today it has successfully completed an ‘on-road’ demonstration of its proprietary technology that enables a heavy-duty truck diesel engine to operate on 100% renewable plant-based fuels.
