Recent trends for introducing promising fuel components to enhance the anti-knock quality of gasoline: A systematic review

Engineers and researchers are dreaming of developing engines and fuels in such a way that very few harmful exhaust emissions can be generated and released to the environment without any significant environmental impact. This systematic review introduces five promising components for producing an environmentally friendly high-octane motor gasoline. Gasoline octane enhancers included bioethanol, prenol, furan mixtures, dimate, as well as isooctene (di-isobutylene). Insights between motor gasoline and engine performance were carried out by investigating these components in fundamental experiments. The results of studies demonstrated that these promising components have provided good synergetic chemical, physical, mechanical, and environmental characteristics when mixed with low-octane hydrocarbon fractions, including straight run hydrotreated naphtha, and hydrocracked naphtha. Moreover, the research and development (R&D) for each studied motor gasoline enhancers were proposed. Finally, the main problems, which whole world suffer from it are energy, environment, and water shortage. By using these motor gasoline components, two of the previous problems would be solved in terms of energy and environment.

Automated summary

Engineers and researchers aim to develop environmentally friendly high-octane gasoline by incorporating organic components to improve low-octane hydrocarbons, addressing global energy and environmental challenges.
