Cellulose reactivity in ethanol at elevated temperature (170–210 °C) was investigated in this study. Water and acid … catalyst can improve the solubilization and the conversion of cellulose in ethanol. In ethanol/water medium, more humic solids … will be formed, but the amounts of diethyl ether decreased greatly. In ethanol medium, the ethanolysis reaction of …

Ethanol production was carried out by growing yeast cells immobilized on bagasse carriers. The effects of cellulase … hydrolysis of carriers on cell immobilization and ethanol production were investigated. The electrical conductivity of carriers … transfer and resulted in high specific ethanol production rate. Cellulase hydrolysis of carriers has positive effects on both …

biodiesel in CI engines under cold climates. Effect of ethanol, kerosene and commercial additive on cold flow behavior of this … performance and emission with ethanol blended Mahua biodiesel fuel and ethanol–diesel blended Mahua biodiesel fuel have also been … studied. A considerable reduction in emission was obtained. Ethanol blended biodiesel is totally a renewable, viable …

The effects of ethanol addition to gasoline on an SI engine performance and exhaust emissions are investigated … for gasoline-fueled SI engines by author, has been adapted for SI engines running on gasoline–ethanol blends. Experimental … applications have been carried out with the blends containing 1.5, 3, 4.5, 6, 7.5, 9, 10.5 and 12vol% ethanol. Numerical …

The production of biodiesel by esterification with ethanol using waste oil generated in the refining of coconut oil was … removing water on the reaction conversion. Methanol was also evaluated as an esterification agent. For both ethanol and …

An experimental investigation is conducted to evaluate the effects of using diethyl ether and ethanol as additives to … in vol.) and BE-2 (5% ethanol, 25% biodiesel and 70% diesel in vol.) respectively. The results indicate that, compared …
