Abstract: Trimethyl orthoformate (TMOF: HC(OCH3)3) has recently been examined as a viable biofuel. TMOF is a branched isomer of oxymethylene ether-2 (OME2) that, due to its high oxygen content and lack of direct carbon-carbon bonds, ...

Abstract: Oxymethylene ethers (OMEn, n = 1–5) are a promising class of synthetic fuels that have the potential to be used as additives or substitutes to diesel in compression ignition engines. A comprehensive understanding of their ...

Abstract: Currently, new concepts for power generation are discussed, as a response to combat global warming due to CO2 emissions stemming from the combustion of fossil fuels. These concepts include new, lowcarbon fuels as well as ...

Abstract: Over the last years, global concerns about energy security and climate change have resulted in many efforts focusing on the potential utilization of nonpetroleum-based, i.e., bioderived, fuels. In this context, n-butanol ...
