Birmingham study finds butanol-gasoline blend reduces GDI engine-out carbonaceous emissions; similar NOx

Green Car Congress

A feasible short-to-midterm solution for addressing additional emissions reduction with a decreased in the demand of high quality fossil fuels is to use renewable bio-alcohols fuels such as butanol, which is considered a second generation of renewable transportation fuel. At low loads, butanol’s physical properties (e.g.
