Real-World On-Road Exhaust Emissions from an Ordinary Gasoline Car Operated on E85 and on Butanol-Gasoline Blend

Original language description

Bioethanol, produced from renewable sources, is promoted as a fuel in higher concentrations in newer flexible fuel engines, and in lower concentrations in the general fleet. Introduction of a blend of 85% ethanol with gasoline (E85) at a competitive price in the Czech Republic has, however, spontaneously resulted in this fuel being used in &#8220;ordinary&#8221; engines not adapted for this fuel. This study investigates the operation of a typical gasoline car with fuel injection and three-way catalyst on gasoline, E85, and additionally on a blend of 85% n-butanol with gasoline, as butanol features better material compatibility than ethanol. The car was equipped with a portable, on-board emissions monitoring system and driven along a route comprising city and rural roads, including hills. Multiple runs were made on each fuel to verify test-to-test repeatability. The engine control unit has remarkably well adapted itself, over tens of km of driving, to both E85 and n-butanol by increasin
