Transportation of people and goods largely relies on the use of fossil hydrocarbons,
contributing to global warming and problems with local air quality. There are a number of …

Low temperature combustion (LTC) is a recent engine technology that can reduce the
oxides of nitrogen (NOx) and soot emissions simultaneously while maintaining higher …

Ethanol provides a significant contribution to road transportation fuel in the US, Brazil, and
elsewhere. Renewable fuels regulations in the US and EU imply that ethanol use will …

In this paper, exhaust emissions and engine performance have been experimentally studied
for neat gasoline and gasoline/n-butanol blends in a wide range of working speeds (2600 …

When expressed using volumetric concentrations (as is industry practice), the addition of
relatively small amounts of ethanol or methanol (eg, 10% by volume) to gasoline appears to …

Reid vapor pressures (RVPs) were determined for alcohol− gasoline blends containing 5−
85% by volume of methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol, 2-propanol, 1-butanol, 2-butanol, i-butanol …

This paper provides an overview of the effects of blending ethanol with gasoline for use in
spark ignition engines. The overview is written from the perspective of considering a future …

The ignition delay times of a research grade gasoline, RON95E10, are measured in a rapid
compression machine and in a shock tube. The experiments are carried out for fuel/O 2/Ar/N …

The performance of three commercial poly (dimethylsiloxane) based membranes
(Pervatech, Pervap 4060 and PolyAn) was studied in pervaporation of removal of acetone …

The automotive sector is concerned about menacing towards depleting fossil fuel and
exhaust emissions generated by conventional engines. To meet the challenges of fossil fuel …
