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.

Alcohol and gasoline-alcohol blends also offer efficiency benefits independent of their octane value. There have been many studies that have investigated the potential change in CR enabled by a given increase in fuel octane rating while maintaining similar knock characteristics—these, Leone et al.
