Conclusions & Future Opportunities
Both ethanol and iso-butanol blends reduced cycle mass emissions of NOx and CO, and yield comparable cycle energy consumption.
Blends of gasoline and iso-butanol increase both acetaldehyde and formaldehyde emissions, while ethanol-gasoline blends increase acetaldehyde emissions, but not significantly formaldehyde.
Aldehyde emissions are eliminated in an active (warm) three-way catalyst: cycle aldehyde emissions stem from initial cold-start phase.
Improved cold-start engine operation with high-alcohol fuels (including iso-butanol blends) is critical for meeting emissions targets
Future exploration opportunities include particulate matter characterization from alcohol fuels utilizing engine HIL.
