Results of a study led by a team from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory on the impact of butanol-gasoline blends on light-duty vehicle emissions suggest that widespread deployment of n-butanol or i-butanol in the gasoline pool could result in changes to the estimated emissions of alcohols and carbonyls in the emissions inventory.

ExxonMobil Research and Engineering Company has filed a US patent application (# 20100326387 , published 30 December 2010) on methods using a wide range of fuel-alcohol blends to expand the operating envelope of engines operating in advanced combustion modes. reduced maximum rates of pressure increase during HTHR.

Among their findings was that for gasoline fuels, aggressively downsizing the engine and adopting homogeneous direct fuel injection enabled an improvement in fuel consumption of ~17% over the New European Drive Cycle compared to a naturally aspirated PFI unit.

Researchers from Tsinghua University and Peking University have investigated the effects of fuel properties on particulate emissions gasoline direct injection engines (GDI). Higher aromatics in gasoline resulted in much higher PM (mass), PN (particle number) and PAHs emissions, with higher toxicity to human health. emissions in 2014.

These blendstocks are best-suited for light-duty (LD) gasoline BSI engines. The merit function determines potential improvements in engine efficiency, was used to evaluate the performance of candidate bio-blendstocks in blends up to 30%. The blendstocks were identified using a fuel property basis using the BSI merit function.

Of these 10 blendstocks, six were assessed to have the fewest significant practical barriers to adoption which include alcohols and an olefine (alkene): di-isobutylene, ethanol, a fusel alcohol blend, isobutanol, n-propanol, and isopropanol.
