Investigation of the combustion characteristics and knock tendencies of neat C1–C4 alcohol fuels using a CFR engine
Even though it is primarily used in blends with gasoline, neat ethanol is considered an excellent fuel for spark-ignition engines, as demonstrated by its widespread use as a transportation fuel in Brazil. The use of biologically produced alcohols in neat form has the potential to displace larger amounts of fossil fuels, compared to using them solely as oxygenate blend components. Consequently, fur
