Renewable Oxygenate Blending Effects on Gasoline Properties

Earl Christensen, +3 more
- 02 Sep 2011 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, three gasoline blendstocks for oxygenate blending (BOBs) at levels up to 3.7 wt % oxygen were compared to the requirements of ASTM specification D4814 for spark-ignited engine fuels to determine their utility as gasoline extenders.
Journal ArticleDOI

Properties and Performance of Levulinate Esters as Diesel Blend Components

Earl Christensen, +4 more
- 18 Oct 2011 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the properties of cellulose-derived diesel blend components were assessed as both neat oxygenates and blends with diesel fuel and they were relatively free of impurities, although EL contained some acidic compounds and both contained parts-per-million levels of calcium.
Journal ArticleDOI

Development of algae biorefinery concepts for biofuels and bioproducts; a perspective on process-compatible products and their impact on cost-reduction

Lieve M.L. Laurens, +9 more
- 09 Aug 2017 - 
TL;DR: Different potential pathways for a conceptual algae biorefinery framework are presented, with each pathway addressing one of the main identified barriers to future deployment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-term storage stability of biodiesel and biodiesel blends

Earl Christensen, +1 more
- 01 Dec 2014 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the long-term storage stability of biodiesel and blends was studied in experiments simulating up to one year for 100% biodiesel (B100) and three years for blends (B20) aging was simulated by holding samples at 43°C to accelerate oxidation (ASTM D4625).
Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of Oxygenated Compounds in Hydrotreated Biomass Fast Pyrolysis Oil Distillate Fractions

Earl Christensen, +8 more
- 19 Oct 2011 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, three hydrotreated bio-oils with different oxygen contents (8.2, 4.9 and 0.4 w/w) were distilled to produce light, naphtha, jet, diesel, and gas oil boiling range fractions that were characterized for oxygen-containing species by a variety of analytical methods.
