Hydration of α-pinene catalyzed by oxalic acid/polyethylene glycol deep eutectic solvents

TL;DR: In this article, a series of carboxylic acid-functionalized deep eutectic solvents (DES) were constructed by a natural organic dicarboxyl acid, oxalic acid (OA), as the hydrogen bond donor and the polyethylene glycol (PEG) with different polymerization degrees as hydrogen bond acceptors, which are used in the hydration of α-pineneto produce α-terpineol.

Co-effects of fuel research octane number and ethanol injection ratio on dual-fuel spark-ignition engine:

TL;DR: In this paper, the combustion and emission characteristics of a dual-fuel spark-ignition engine with direct injection of gasoline surrogates and port injection of ethanol were studied, and the performance of the engine was evaluated.

On promoted combustion stability of kerosene/ethanol blends at wide low temperatures: Fuel reactivity improvement and Leidenfrost effect suppression

TL;DR: In this paper , the effect of the enhancer methoxydiethylborane (MDEB) on the combustion promotion of kerosene/ethanol-based fuels at low temperatures was investigated, where a strategy combining combustion pathway regulation and heat release enhancement was proposed.

Environmental, economic, and energetic costs and benefits of biodiesel and ethanol biofuels

TL;DR: Transportation biofuels such as synfuel hydrocarbons or cellulosic ethanol, if produced from low-input biomass grown on agriculturally marginal land or from waste biomass, could provide much greater supplies and environmental benefits than food-basedBiofuels.
