Summary of significant emissions results from the fuel testing. This study points to the need for more extensive emissions measurements for these new fuels as well as research to gain a better understanding of the biological effects of the NMOG components that they produce, the team concludes.

For the past four years, the Co-Optimization of Fuels & Engines (Co-Optima) National Laboratory consortium has focused research efforts primarily on turbocharged (boosted) spark-ignition (SI) engines for light-duty vehicles. The report highlights researchers’ answers to three vital questions: What fuels do engines want?

A new Co-Optimization of Fuels & Engines (Co-Optima) report describes the top ten biofuel-derived blendstock candidates. These top candidates, when blended with petroleum and used in a boosted spark ignition (BSI) engine, will offer environmental benefits and boost energy efficiency all while being available at a competitive price.
