Combustion and emission characteristics of n-butanol-gasoline blends in SI direct injection gasoline engine

Renewable Energy, 2020
N-butanol is a valuable renewable fuel that has been extensively studied. In this paper, the effect of n-butanol-gasoline blends on combustion and emissions performance of direct injection gasoline engine under urban conditions (throttle opening is 10 ...

Screened Butanol-Tolerant Enterococcus faecium Capable of Butanol Production

Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology, 2012
Due to the complex mechanisms involved in butanol-induced stress response, butanol tolerance phenotype is difficult to engineer even in microorganisms with well-defined genetic backgrounds. We therefore aimed to isolate butanol-tolerant microorganisms from environmental samples as potential alternative hosts for butanol production.

The effects on performance, combustion and emission characteristics of DICI engine fuelled with TiO2 nanoparticles addition in diesel/biodiesel/n-butanol blends

Fuel, 2018
In this study, waste cooking oil biodiesel was mixed with titanium dioxide (TiO2), a metal-based nano particle, and n-butanol (C4H9OH) along with euro diesel to examine their effects on diesel engines. Various ratio of fuel blends were prepared with TiO2

Potential of n-butanol/diesel blends for CI engines under post injection strategy and different EGR rates conditions

, 2020
Blending n-butanol and diesel fuels in combination with a post injection strategy could accomplish the target of ultra-low soot emissions. However, the introduction of n-butanol leads to increased NOX emissions. Exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) technology

Catalytic Oxidative Dehydration of Butanol Isomers: 1-Butanol, 2-Butanol, and Isobutanol

2011
Abstract : The catalytic production of economically important four-carbon olefins was achieved through catalytic oxidative dehydration of 1-butanol, 2-butanol, and isobutanol using a millisecond contact time reactor. Both alumina foam and rhodium-alumina foam catalysts convert these four-carbon alcohols into four-carbon olefins, with contact time equal

A comparative analysis of n-butanol/diesel and 1-pentanol/diesel blends in a compression ignition engine

Fuel, 2018
The use of alcohols in diesel engines is an alternative way of reducing dependence on diesel fuel. Specifically, higher alcohols such as n-butanol (nB) and 1-pentanol (Pn), which consist of high carbons and can be produced from mainly non-edible sources,

Emission analysis of diesel and butanol blends in research diesel engine

, 2020
This study is aimed at reducing NOx, Smoke, HC, CO emissions from single-cylinder, four-stroke, and water cooled diesel engine. The research engine is fueled with diesel and two blends of butanol and diesel at atmospheric conditions.

Thermodynamic functions for the systems 1-butanol, 2-butanol, andt-butanol + cyclohexane

Journal of Solution Chemistry, 1983
The following properties of mixtures of the butanols with cyclohexane were measured over the whole range of composition: 1-butanol+cyclohexane and 2-butanol+cyclohexane; excess enthalpies at 15, 25, 35 and 45°C, excess volumes at 25 and 45°C, activity coefficients and excess Gibbs free energies at 45°C.
