Journal ArticleDOI

Progress in the production and application of n-butanol as a biofuel

TL;DR: In this article, the properties of butanol are compared with the conventional gasoline, diesel fuel, and some widely used biofuels, i.e. methanol, ethanol, biodiesel.
Journal ArticleDOI

Emission characteristics of a spark-ignition engine fuelled with gasoline-n-butanol blends in combination with EGR

TL;DR: In this article, an experimental study was conducted in a port fuel-injection, spark-ignition engine fuelled with blends of gasoline and n-butanol at different spark timings and EGR rates.
Journal ArticleDOI

Combustion and emissions characteristics of high n-butanol/diesel ratio blend in a heavy-duty diesel engine and EGR impact

TL;DR: In this paper, the combustion and emission fundamentals of high n-butanol/diesel ratio blend with 40% butanol (i.e., Bu40) in a heavy-duty diesel engine were investigated by experiment and simulation at constant engine speed of 1400rpm and an IMEP of 1.0 MPa.
Journal ArticleDOI

Potential of acetone-butanol-ethanol (ABE) as a biofuel

TL;DR: In this article, the updated progress of ABE fermentation techniques is summarized from the aspects: (i) selection of suitable strain; (ii) availability of cheaper substrates; (iii) development of fermentation engineering; and (iv) the research on ABE combustion in internal combustion engine (ICEs).
Journal ArticleDOI

Study on performance and emissions of a passenger-car diesel engine fueled with butanol–diesel blends

TL;DR: In this article, a high-speed direct injection (DI) diesel engine for passenger-car application for varied loads at two representative engine speeds was tested, and the results showed that butanol-diesel blends slightly increased combustion pressure and accelerated burning rate.
