Diesel engines because of their higher compression ratios, burn fuel at higher temperatures and efficiencies. Thus the development of diesel fuels that are renewable and less polluting would represent a significant advance towards sustainable transportation. JGS Research has developed an alternative fuel based on alcohols derived from biomass. Alcohols, in combination with our product Bionit, yield a diesel fuel which is cleaner burning than petroleum-based diesel fuel. The novel synthetic strategies of Bionit as well as preliminary engine tests will be presented. |  | This paper is available to CTSI members in PDF© format. | | ISBN: | 1-4200-8502-0 |
