Bio-butanol fuel atomization and combustion processes
Three bio-butanol fuel atomization and combustion technologies were considered, namely butanol electrostatic sprays, butanol non-premixed flames, and butanol kinetic modeling in view of the emergence of methods of production of this fuel from biological sources. Butanol electrospray (e-spray) …

Green Design of a Cellulosic Bio-butanol Supply Chain Network with Life Cycle Assessment
… renewable fuel production and commercialization. Bio-butanol is a very promising renewable fuel for the future transportation market. Many efforts have been made to improve its production process, but seldom has bio-butanol research discussed the integration and optimization of a cellulosic …

Investigation of combustion enhancement with biomass derived fuels blended with diesel
… are now being researched to meet these needs. Biofuels are of particular interest to the automobile industry because they have the potential to significantly reduce particulate matter (PM), hydrocarbon (HC), and carbon monoxide (CO) emissions. Bio-fuels also contribute less to global CO2 …

Increasing fermentative butanol production in Clostridium beijerinckii using oxidized extracellular electron shuttling molecules
… interest in more sustainable energy options. Bio-butanol, produced during fermentation of plant biomass, is one possible alternative. However, yields for butanol fermentation are low making recovery difficult. Higher yields are needed to make butanol a competitive option for an alternative …

Characterization of 1-butanol electrospray combustion
… the characteristics of electrosprays of 1-butanol that burn in air. Still images and high-speed movies captured with a laser sheet present helped to establish general flame phenomenology and features such as shape, size, and stability of the spray flame. The dependence of the flame …

Combustion quality and regimes for standard and alternative fuels
… of the modern ICE. Alcohols, especially n-butanol, have been studied as potential fuels and have shown to be a possible alternative to pure gasoline. In this work, the intermediate product in bio-butanol production through acetone-butanol-ethanol (ABE) fermentation, ABE, was studied for the …
