Alternative transportation fuels, preferably from renewable sources, include alcohols with up
to five or even more carbon atoms. They are considered promising because they can be …

In this work, the combustion and emission fundamentals of high n-butanol/diesel ratio blend
with 40% butanol (ie, Bu40) in a heavy-duty diesel engine were investigated by experiment …

Abstract Acetone–Butanol–Ethanol (ABE), the intermediate product while producing bio-
butanol, has been proposed to be used as an alternative fuel directly to reduce the butanol …

Abstract Acetone–Butanol–Ethanol (ABE), an intermediate product in the ABE fermentation
process for producing bio-butanol, is considered a promising alternative fuel because it not …

Due to the increasing interest in the use of biofuels for energy production, it is of great
importance to better understand the combustion and thermal decomposition characteristics …

Abstract n-Butanol is a new generation of liquid biofuel. A detailed understanding of the low-
temperature combustion chemistry of n-butanol is instructive for its practical application in …

Experimental and numerical study on the effect of pressure and equivalence ratio on the
ignition delay times of the DME/H 2/O 2 mixtures diluted in argon were conducted using a …

Oxygenated biofuels such as fatty acid methyl esters or ethanol are incorporated in larger
and larger amounts into conventional hydrocarbon fuels for use in internal combustion and …

The oxidation of pure n-butanal and the n-butanal/NO mixture was investigated in an
atmospheric jet-stirred reactor at stoichiometric conditions and over the temperature range of …

Unsaturated aldehydes such as butenal are essential intermediates in the combustion of
various alkenes and oxygenated biofuels. 2-Butenal is a typical intermediate included in the …
