Effect of fuel composition on aldehyde emissions from spark ignition engines

Abstract:

The transport sector is a substantial contributor to global greenhouse gas emissions. To address this, governments are pursuing policies including vehicle electrification and the promotion of renewable fuels. Ethanol stands out as a promising alternative fuel due to its low-carbon potential and compatibility with current infrastructure.
