The main advantage of this is that a more powerful compressor type can be used (ie rotary vane compressor or even screw compressor -the latter is rather expensive though-</ins>) <ins style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">and that this compressor can also be used to recharge the compressed air tank. Another advantage is that the burner should use the heat more effectively (Proe&#039;s system could potentially waste much more energy in the form of heat). A major downside to Proe&#039;s system is the greater complexity, and the fact that an oil tank is needed, which means a possibly greater weight in comparison to Proe&#039;s system, also it may be less compact.</ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2" class="diff-side-deleted"></td><td class="diff-marker" data-marker="+"></td><td style="color: #202122; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #a3d3ff; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div> </div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2" class="diff-side-deleted"></td><td class="diff-marker" data-marker="+"></td><td style="color: #202122; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #a3d3ff; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div><ins style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">The compressed air tanks are added in both systems mainly to allow the vehicle to be started right away, without a (15 min) warm-up time. </ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2" class="diff-side-deleted"></td><td class="diff-marker" data-marker="+"></td><td style="color: #202122; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #a3d3ff; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div> </div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2" class="diff-side-deleted"></td><td class="diff-marker" data-marker="+"></td><td style="color: #202122; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #a3d3ff; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div><ins style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">The reason that a hybrid (compressed air/biofuel) system is useful is because the energy density of biofuel is much higher than that of compressed air, in addition it also doesn&#039;t need a (heavy) tank.
