Engineering a Cleaner Future: Diesel Innovation, Entrepreneurship & Sustainability with Brian Livingston

In this episode of The No-Brainer Show, Zak and Derek sit down with engineer-turned-entrepreneur Brian Livingston, a former Caterpillar chemical engineer who spent two decades working in diesel engine technology. After being laid off during the early days of COVID, Brian found himself unexpectedly stepping into entrepreneurship. "I had no idea what I was doing when I became an entrepreneur. But a lot of people start businesses that way—you figure it out as you go.", he reflected. That path led him to a technology designed to improve diesel combustion efficiency, reduce emissions, and cut fuel consumption for heavy-duty industries such as trucking, mining, rail, and shipping. Topics Covered * Brian's 20-year engineering career at Caterpillar * Losing a corporate job during COVID and pivoting to entrepreneurship * How diesel fuel chemistry affects combustion efficiency * Technology that improves diesel efficiency by 5–7% * Real-world applications in trucking, rail, mining, and shipping * The economics of fuel savings and emissions reduction * Why testing and data matter in engineering innovation * Electric vehicles vs diesel in heavy-duty industries * Government subsidies and the future of energy policy * Why practical sustainability solutions matter today Brian explains the science behind the technology, how it breaks diesel molecules into shorter chains for cleaner combustion, and why the solution can improve fuel efficiency by roughly 5–7%. The conversation dives deep into sustainable energy, the future of electric vehicles, the role of government subsidies, and the realities of global energy transitions. It's a candid discussion about innovation, free markets, engineering, and the messy but fascinating path from corporate career to startup entrepreneurship. He asks, ""Most people think sustainability is something that will happen 25 years from now. My message is: what can we do today?"
