Exploitation of Synchrotron Radiation Photoionization Mass Spectrometry in the Analysis of Complex Organics in Interstellar Model Ices.

TL;DR: In this article , the first incorporation of synchrotron vacuum ultraviolet photoionization reflectron time-of-flight mass spectrometry (SVUV-PI-ReTOF-MS) in laboratory astrophysics simulation experiments to afford an isomerselective identification of key COMs (ketene (H2C═CO); acetaldehyde (CH3CHO); vinyl alcohol (H 2C═CHOH)) based on photoionisation efficiency (PIE) curves of molecules desorbing from exposed carbon monoxide-methane (CO-CH4) ices.

Mechanisms and kinetics of the low-temperature oxidation of 2-methylfuran: insight from DFT calculations and kinetic simulations

TL;DR: Calculations and simulations show that the product P1 from the dehydroxylation of PO1 has a dominant population (higher than 96%) among the final products, although the temperature and pressure may influence the species profiles and rate constants to some extent.

Fundamental study on oxidation properties at elevated pressure of typical renewable synthetic liquid fuels through low-temperature CO2 electroreduction

TL;DR: In this paper , a variable pressure laminar flow reactor has been used for experimental investigations, and methanol experiments have been performed to validate the reliability of this platform and to understand oxidation properties of these renewable synthetic liquid fuels.
DissertationDOI

Reactivity and Ignition Delay Measurements of Petroleum-based Fuels, Surrogate Fuels and Biofuels

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured the reaction and ignition delay of four primary reference fuel (PRF) blends, mixtures considered to be some of the simplest gasoline surrogates, to provide a large experimental dataset to validate PRF chemical kinetic models.

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.
