Acetone is widely recognized as a major organic solvent and also a basic ingredient for varnishes and paints. In comparison with ethanol, acetone has more attractive properties as a potential alternative fuel such as its higher energy density, heating value, and volatility. However, the water content in acetone production would lead to a high cost for dehydration, and may prohibit acetone from being...
Bio-butanol is typically produced by acetone-butanol-ethanol (ABE) fermentation, however, the recovery of bio-butanol from the ABE mixture involves high costs and energy consumption. Hence it is of interest to study the intermediate fermentation product, i.e. ABE, as a potentially alternative fuel. In this study, an experimental investigation of the performance, combustion and emission characteristics...
Among primary alcohols, bio-n-butanol is considered as a promising alternative fuel candidate. However, relatively low production efficiency and high cost of component recovery from the acetone-n-butanol-ethanol (ABE) or isopropanol-n-butanol-ethanol (IBE) fermentation processes hinders industrial-scale production of bio-n-butanol. Hence it is of interest to study the intermediate fermentation product,...
Bio-butanol has proved to be a promising alternative fuel in recent years; it is typically produced from ABE (acetone–butanol–ethanol) fermentation from non-edible biomass feedstock. The high costs for dehydration and recovery from dilute fermentation broth have so far prohibited bio-butanol’s use in internal combustion engines. There is an interesting in studying the intermediate fermentation product,...
