RVPs (predicted DVPE) of single- and dual-alcohol blends in gasoline with different relative proportions of ethanol and 1-butanol. As part of the study, they demonstrated a simple method to prepare dual-alcohol-gasoline blends with Reid vapor pressures (RVPs) “ indistinguishable ” from that of the base gasoline.

fuel with higher ethanol content—for part- and full-load operation for different engine types and fuel assumptions. Alcohol and gasoline-alcohol blends also offer efficiency benefits independent of their octane value. Their paper is published in the ACS journal Environmental Science & Technology. —Leone et al.
