Description
How oxygenates work
- Oxygenates promote complete combustion
- They can enhance fuel combustion and reduce exhaust emissions
- Some oxygenates can boost gasoline octane
- They can be found in some gasolines at concentrations of up to 15% by volume
Other uses of oxygenates
- Oxygenates can be used in the production of formaldehyde, acetic acid, fuels, solvents, and methyl derivatives
Research on oxygenates
- The oil and motor industries have carried out considerable research into the use of organic oxygenates as blending components in gasoline
- The American Petroleum Institute (API) provides technical information on fuel oxygenates in soil and groundwater
