About this book

Gasoline – the most common petroleum product comes in several types or grades. Straight-run gasoline is generated solely by crude oil distillation. Crack gasoline, derived by thermal or catalytic breaking of heavier oil fractions, accounts for the majority of gasoline used in automobile and aviation. Straight-run gasoline, fractured gasoline, reformed and synthetic gasoline, and additives are used to create a wide range of gasoline kinds.

This book studies the effects of different additives on the gasoline properties to:

Reduce air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions

Enhance gasoline-powered engine performance

Improve gasoline properties, such as octane number
