- The Gasoline Oxygenate Bibliography.
- Oxygenates, when added to gasoline, are designed to add oxygen to the gasoline, thereby decreasing vehicular carbon monoxide emissions and ozone levels in the atmosphere. The Clean Air Act Amendments (CAAA) of 1990 mandate seasonal or year-round use of oxygenated compounds in gasoline in specific areas of the United States. ... Ethanol, the second most commonly used gasoline oxygenate, had an average increase in production of 10 percent from 1984 to 2000, with about 4. ...
- In 1997, the Office of Science and Technology Policy, Executive Office of the President, released an interagency assessment of the scientific basis for, and efficacy of, the winter oxygenated gasoline program. Shortly thereafter in 1998, the MTBE Blue Ribbon Panel was created by a Charter from the Clean Air Act Advisory Committee to provide independent advice and counsel to the USEPA related to the use of MTBE and other oxygenates in gasoline. ...
- Other ethers and alcohols can serve as gasoline oxygenates and the use of these compounds may become more prevalent, depending on various economic factors such as: cost; ease of production and transfer; blending characteristics; and environmental and health concerns. These gasoline oxygenates are classed as: (1) ethers, including ethyl tert-butyl ether (ETBE), diisopropyl ether (DIPE), dimethyl ether (DME), methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE), tert-amyl ethyl ether (TAEE), tert-amyl methyl ether (TAME); and (2) alcohols, including ethanol (EtOH), methanol (MeOH), tert-amyl alcohol (TAA), and tert-butyl alcohol (TBA).
- The previously described MTBE bibliography has been expanded to include select publications pertaining to all gasoline oxygenates with the focus on occurrence and trends of the compounds and environmental processes that may affect the behavior and fate of the compounds.
- Gasoline oxygenate publications focusing on occurrence, trends and understanding of gasoline oxygenates in water are emphasized. ...

- Gasoline & Octane Ratings.
- How is gasoline made? What are octane ratings?.
- Gasoline consists of a complex mixture of hydrocarbons. ... Alkenes and alkynes may also be present in gasoline. ...
- Gasoline is most often produced by the fractional distillation of petroleum, also known as crude oil (it is also produced from coal and oil shale). ... This fractional distillation process yields approximately 250 mL of straight-run gasoline for each liter of crude oil. The yield of gasoline may be doubled by converting higher or lower boiling point fractions into hydrocarbons in the gasoline range. ...
- The alkanes from the cracking reaction are added to the straight-run gasoline to increase the gasoline yield from the crude oil. ...
- Also, some isomerization occurs during the cracking process, which increases the gasoline quality. ...
- In internal combustion engines, the compressed gasoline-air mixtures have a tendency to ignite prematurely rather than burning smoothly. ... The octane number of gasoline is a measure of its resistance to knock. The octane number is determined by comparing the characteristics of a gasoline to isooctane (2,2,4-trimethylpentane) and heptane. ...

- Chemist and oil industry executive William Meriam Burton invented a method of refining crude oil at the turn of the century to produce gasoline and developed the first commercially successful process for cracking crude oil into gasoline and other products.
- Gasoline was not invented it is a natural by-product of the petroleum industry, kerosene being the principal product. Gasoline is produced by distillation, the separating of the volatile, more valuable fractions of crude petroleum. However, what was invented were the numerous processes and agents needed to improve the quality of gasoline. ...
- The early refiners could convert only a small proportion of their crude oil to gasoline for cars. ...
- The processes that were invented to improve the yield of gasoline from crude oil were known as cracking. ... Cracking is the number one process for the commercial production of gasoline. ...
- According to Britannica, "Thermal cracking, employing heat and high pressures, was introduced in 1913 but was replaced after 1937 by catalytic cracking, the application of catalysts that facilitate chemical reactions producing more gasoline. Other methods used to improve the quality of gasoline and increase its supply include polymerization, converting gaseous olefins, such as propylene and butylene, into larger molecules in the gasoline range; alkylation, a process combining an olefin and a paraffin such as isobutane; isomerization, the conversion of straight-chain hydrocarbons to branched-chain hydrocarbons; and reforming, using either heat or a catalyst to rearrange the molecular structure. ...
