🎄 Title: Standard-Compliant Gasoline by Upgrading a DTG-Based Fuel through Hydroprocessing the Heavy-Ends and Blending of Oxygenates

👨‍🎓 Authors: David Graf, Philipp Neuner, and Reinhard Rauch

✍️Details: https://brnw.ch/21wPuO4

📌Special Issue: https://brnw.ch/21wPu9U

Methanol-to-gasoline (MTG) and dimethyl ether-to-gasoline (DTG) fuels are rich in heavy aromatics such as 1,2,4,5-tetramethylbenzene, resulting in low volatilities due to a lack of light ends, increased emission tendencies and drivability problems due to crystallization. Approaches addressing these....
