Sandia team develops gasoline-like fuel blend with high renewable content that simultaneously increases φ-sensitivity, RON, and octane sensitivity
A team at Sandia National Laboratories has designed a five-component gasoline-like blend containing 40% vol of a mixture of 2-methyl furan and 2,5-dimethyl furan (representative of products of a viable pathway to make furans from bio-feedstock). Simulations show promising results when the resulting fuel is compared to regular E10 gasoline....
