A team at Zhejiang University has now investigated the impact of methanol–gasoline blends on the pollutant emissions of port-fuel injected spark ignition (SI) engines. Wei found that burning methanol−gasoline blends could lead to the rise of unburned methanol and formaldehyde emissions. No additives were used in the fuel blends.
