Bioethanol as a component of biofuels for use in diesel engines

Journal Title: CHEMIK nauka-technika-rynek - Year 2010, Vol 64, Issue 5

Abstract

The possibility of application of the blends of bioethanol with diesel fuel to diesel engines was described. Properties directly related to engine parameters and those characterizing fuel quality were evaluated. The storage, transport and distribution problems of such biofuels were considered. The effects blended fuels on the performance and emissions of diesel engines was presented.
