TL;DR: In this paper, the authors systematically review the use of alcohols and ethers including butanol, methanol, ethanol, and fusel oil, MTBE, and DME as fuels in SI engine and investigate the effects of performance (brake torque, brake power, BSFC, effective efficiency, and EGT), emissions (CO, CO2, NOx and HC) and combustion characteristics of SI engine with alcohol and ether.

TL;DR: In this article, the performance and emissions of a compression and spark ignition engine using of alcohol fuels from the first aliphatic alcohol family; methanol, ethanol, propanol and butanol was reviewed and summarized to demonstrate its viability as an alternative fuel.

TL;DR: It was demonstrated from the review that most of the research yield favourable results of engine modelling prediction for both of the methods, and a high degree of determination coefficient indicating that the model could predict the model efficiency with reasonable accuracy.

TL;DR: A review of state-of-the-art demulsification techniques for crude oil can be found in this article, where an overview of crude oil emulsion types, formation, and stability is presented.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the first and second law of thermodynamics to construct a model for the gas turbine power plant, and calculated the exergy flow rate for the compressor, the combustion chamber, and the GT inlet and outlet.
