RED LINE ALCOHOL FUEL LUBRICANT • Prevents gelling and corrosion in methanol and nitromethane fuel systems • Lubricates upper cylinder and fuel system, increases power with more ring seal • Replaces lubrication lost by wash of dry fuels • Not detectable by normal fuel tests, mixes with only slight agitation • Use 1oz per 5 gallons, one bottle treats up to 55 gallons • Do not use with catalytic converters • Suitable for use with E85, methanol and nitromethane containing fuels • 1 bottle to 20 gallons of race gas showed a 1.5% increase in torque on the dyno, similar improvement or better expected with alcohol fuels PACKAGE SIZES: 41102 - Alcohol Fuel Lubricant - 12oz ADDITIONAL INFORMATION RED LINE ALCOHOL FUEL LUBE is a high performance synthetic which is designed to provide maximum power and reduce wear. Methanol and other alcohols are extremely ‘dry’ and will wash conventional lubricants away from the cylinder walls and valve guides. Red Line Alcohol Fuel Lube contains lubricants that will displace alcohol on steel and aluminum surfaces and are combined with anti-scuff additives to reduce ring wear and piston scuffing under extreme washdown. Directions: Two ounces per 10 US gallons will reduce will reduce fuel friction by 32% and reduce fuel wear (steel on steel) by 63%. Four ounces per 10 US gallons will reduce fuel friction by 32% and reduce fuel wear by 75%. This is a significant improvement over Castor lubricants and other synthetics on the market. Do not use with catalytic converters.

Assessment of Bio- Ethanol and Biogas Initiatives for Transport in Sweden
Assessment of bio- ethanol and biogas initiatives for transport in Sweden Background information for the EU-project PREMIA EU Contract N° TREN/04/FP6EN/S07.31083/503081 May 2005 2 Abstract This report is the result of an assignment on assessment of bio-ethanol and biogas initiatives for transport in Sweden, granted by VTT Processes, Energy and Environment, Engines and Vehicles, Finland to Atrax Energi AB, Sweden. The report of the assignment is intended to append the literature and other information used in the “PREMIA” project The work has been carried out by Björn Rehnlund, Atrax Energi AB, Sweden, with support from Martijn van Walwijk, France. The report describes the development of the production and use of biobio-ethanol and biogas (biomass based methane) as vehicle fuels in Sweden and gives an overview of today’s situation. Besides data and information about numbers of vehicles and filling stations, the report also gives an overview of: • Stakeholders • The legal framework, including standards, specifications, type approval, taxation etc. • Financial support programs. Public acceptance, side effects and the effect off the introduction of bio-ethanol and biogas as vehicle fuels on climate gases are to some extent also discussed in this report. It can be concluded that since the early 1990’s Sweden has had a perhaps slow but steadily increasing use of bio-ethanol and biogas. Today having the EC directive on promotion of bio bio-fuels and other renewable fuels in place the development and introduction of filling stations and vehicles has started to increase rapidly. From 1994 to 2004 the number of filling stations for bio-ethanol grew from 1 to 100 and during the year 2004 until today to 160 stations.

A Study on the Emissions of Butanol Using a Spark Ignition Engine and Their Reduction Using Electrostatically Assisted Injection
A STUDY ON THE EMISSIONS OF BUTANOL USING A SPARK IGNITION ENGINE AND THEIR REDUCTION USING ELECTROSTATICALLY ASSISTED INJECTION BY BENJAMIN R. WIGG THESIS Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2011 Urbana, Illinois Adviser: Professor Dimitrios C. Kyritsis Abstract Butanol is a potential alternative to ethanol and offers many benefits including a much higher heating value and lower latent heat of vaporization. It also has a higher cetane number than ethanol and improved miscibility in diesel fuel. Additionally, butanol is less corrosive and less prone to water absorption than ethanol, which allows it to be transported using the existing fuel supply pipelines. However, while some previous research on the emissions of butanol-gasoline blends is available, little research exists on the emissions of neat butanol. This thesis focuses on two areas of study. The first area relates to on the comparison of UHC, NOx, and CO emissions of several butanol-gasoline and ethanol-gasoline blended fuels during combustion in an SI engine. The objective was to compare the emissions of butanol combustion to the ones of ethanol and gasoline. The second part of the study relates to the use of electrostatically assisted injection as a means of reducing the UHC emissions of butanol by decreasing the fuel droplet size using a charge electrode and extraction ring designed for a port fuel injector. Emissions measurements taken with and without a charge applied to the injector were used to determine the effect of applying a voltage to the fuel spray on engine emissions.

Lawrence Abstract Biofuels have become big policy and big business. Government targets, mandates, and blending quotas have created a growing demand for biofuels. Some say that the U.S. biofuels industry was created by government policies. But recently, biofuels have become increasingly controversial. In this paper Lawrence argues that the growing list of concerns about the impact of biofuel targets and mandates—are the predictable result of a failure to follow the basic principles of good policy-making. Good policy-making requires developing a policy goal or target (i.e., reducing greenhouse gas emissions, reducing oil consumption, or increasing rural economic development) and designing an instrument to efficiently meet that particular goal. The more precise the goal, the better. In addition, for each target, there should be at least one policy instrument.

Alcohol Fuel 1 Alcohol Fuel
Alcohol fuel 1 Alcohol fuel Although fossil fuels have become the dominant energy resource for the modern world, alcohol has been used as a fuel throughout history. The first four aliphatic alcohols (methanol, ethanol, propanol, and butanol) are of interest as fuels because they can be synthesized chemically or biologically, and they have characteristics which allow them to be used in current engines. One advantage shared by all four alcohols is their high octane rating. This tends to increase fuel efficiency and largely offsets the lower energy density of alcohol fuels (as compared to petrol/gasoline and diesel fuels), thus resulting in comparable "fuel economy" in terms of distance per volume metrics, such as kilometers per liter, or miles per gallon. Biobutanol has the advantage that its energy density is closer to gasoline than the simpler alcohols (while still retaining over 25% higher octane rating); however, biobutanol is currently more difficult to produce than ethanol or methanol. The general chemical formula for alcohol fuel is C H OH. n 2n+1 Most methanol is produced from natural gas, although it can be produced from biomass using very similar chemical processes. Ethanol is commonly produced from Biological material though fermentation processes. When obtained from biological materials and/or biological processes, they are known as bioalcohols (e.g. bioethanol). There is no chemical difference between biologically produced and chemically produced alcohols. However, "ethanol" that is derived from petroleum should not be considered safe for consumption as this alcohol contains about 5% methanol and may cause blindness or death. This mixture may also not be purified by simple distillation, as it forms an azeotropic mixture.
