| 摘要： | There has been a recent revival in interest in the use of ethanol-diesel fuel blends (E-diesel) in heavy-duty vehicles as a means to reduce petroleum dependency, increase renewable fuels use, and reduce vehicle emissions. At present there are five main providers of additive packages that allow the preparation, by splash blending, of stable E-diesel blends generally containing 10%to 15%ethanol. The current target market is use in centrally-fueled vehicle fleets. Because E-diesel does not meet all the ASTM specifications for diesel fuel, it probably cannot be legally sold at the retail level in most states. The major concern with the use of E-diesel derives from its flammability characteristics. |
