Study of Vapor Pressures of Gasoline-Alcohol Blends Finds That Dual-Alcohol Blends Can Result in RVPs Identical to That of Gasoline

Green Car Congress

RVPs (predicted DVPE) of single- and dual-alcohol blends in gasoline with different relative proportions of ethanol and 1-butanol. Evaporative emissions from gasoline—volatile organic compounds (VOCs)—are precursors to the formation of tropospheric ozone and contribute to ground-level ozone. Credit: ACS, Andersen et al.

Study quantifies impact of fuel composition on PM emissions from gasoline direct injection engines

Green Car Congress

Researchers from Tsinghua University and Peking University have investigated the effects of fuel properties on particulate emissions gasoline direct injection engines (GDI). in Chinese cities is 61 μg/m 3 —about 3 times as high as global population-weighted mean, highlighting a high health risk. emissions in 2014.

Perspective: US Needs to Transition to Hydrous Ethanol as the Primary Renewable Transportation Fuel

Green Car Congress

d) further provides for alcohol blends as follows: Special provisions for alcohol blends. (1) High heat of vaporization values are typical for water and alcohols including hydrous ethanol and hydrous ethanol blends (oxygenated hydrocarbons). As used in this section and Sec. 40 CFR § 80.27(d) Conclusion.
