Title: Improving the environmental and performance characteristics of vehicles by introducing the surfactant additive into gasoline. Author: Magaril E, Magaril R. Journal: Environ Sci Pollut Res Int; 2016 Sep; 23(17):17049-57. PubMed ID: 27206755. Abstract: The operation of modern vehicles requires the introduction of package of fuel additives to ensure the required level of operating characteristics, some of which cannot be achieved by current oil refining methods. The use of additives allows flexibility of impact on the properties of the fuel at minimal cost, increasing the efficiency and environmental safety of vehicles. Among the wide assortment of additives available on the world market, many are surfactants. It has been shown that the introduction of some surfactants into gasoline concurrently reduces losses from gasoline evaporation, improves the mixture formation during injection of gasoline into the engine and improves detergent and anticorrosive properties. The surfactant gasoline additive that provides significant improvement in the quality of gasoline used and environmental and operating characteristics of vehicles has been developed and thoroughly investigated. The results of studies confirming the efficiency of the gasoline additive application are herein presented.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
