Summary of significant emissions results from the fuel testing. Given equivalent deployment of butanols and ethanol, the results suggest emissions of unburned alcohols would decrease, but carbonyl emissions would increase; some of these compounds have poorly understood health effects, they note.

For the past four years, the Co-Optimization of Fuels & Engines (Co-Optima) National Laboratory consortium has focused research efforts primarily on turbocharged (boosted) spark-ignition (SI) engines for light-duty vehicles. Of the fuel properties investigated, these six were found to have the most impact on engine efficiency and emissions.

. … To achieve continued improvement in engine efficiency and CO 2 emissions, it is critical to quantify the roles of fuel octane rating and alcohol content. Alcohol and gasoline-alcohol blends also offer efficiency benefits independent of their octane value. Higher octane fuels and legacy vehicles.
