Emissions
Emissions from ethanol vehicles compared
to gasoline vehicles:
CO and HC emissions are generally reduced
(up to 60-70%)
NOx emission results were mixed. Some stated
reductions of about 60 percent, while others
stated increases of about 30 percent. FFVs and
dedicated vehicles for highlevel ethanol
blends or neat ethanol showed tolerance for
higher EGR ratios, reducing NOx.
PM??? (not much evidence)
CO2 emissions were found to be about 5
percent less per kilometer
Aldehydes generally increased dramatically
Many other organic compounds decreased

Conclusions:
Alcohols and biogas are the most obvious
biofuels for SI engines (and drop-in)
Vehicles are available
Some issues still need to be adressed
