Properties and role<br />

Oxygenate compound:<br />

have high octane number,<br />

replace lead additive,<br />

aromatic. Allowable<br />

Maximum oxygen content<br />

is 2.7%<br />

MTBE: 10-15% Vol.<br />

Etanol: From 3-10% Vol.<br />

Influence<br />

MTBE: increase clean combustion<br />

ability, reduce emission NOx, CO,<br />

HC in exhaust gas of engine.<br />

When it leaks out to environment, it<br />

can cause ground water pollution<br />

( water have pungent even at very<br />

low MTBE content )<br />

Etanol: reduce emission CO, NO x<br />

in<br />

exhaust gas<br />

When blend much (more than<br />

10%Vol.) it can increase emission<br />

NO x<br />

, volatility.<br />

Etanol can increase corrosion in<br />

storage tank because of water<br />
