What is Isobutanol in Marine Fuel Testing about?
This report summarizes testing of butanol-extended fuels in marine engines. Butanol was found to have higher energy content than ethanol, allowing it to be blended at higher percentages without impacting performance. Emissions testing on two boats found that total hydrocarbon and nitrogen oxide emissions were virtually unchanged when switching to a 16.1% butanol blend, while carbon monoxide emissions decreased as expected. The report concludes that butanol may be a better alternative to ethanol for marine f
