Fuel Additives for Future Fuel and Vehicle Technologies
Authors reviewed the role of fuel additive in producing quality transportation fuels and fuel additive for optimal vehicle performance,meanwhile studied fuel additive application for advanced hybrid vehicles and direct injection engines.Transportation fuel and vehicle technology are rapidly evolving in response to regulatory and commercial efforts to assure energy supply,improve fuel economy and reduce mobile source emissions.Along with these changes,the fuels must meet the demands for transportation and storage in a safe and efficient manner and the vehicle performance requirements to ensure acceptable operation in consumer use.This evaluation looks at the broad class of fuel additives and considers how they can provide fuel producers with a means to readily deliver safe and effective transportation of fuel and to allow for effective operation of changing engine technologies.
