Ethanol Future Fuel for India: An Introduction | Chapter 3 | Techniques and Innovation in Engineering Research Vol. 3

 India's prosperity has led to an increase in the country's automobile population and fuel demand. The transportation industry must contend with dwindling fossil fuel supplies, volatile oil prices and tightening environmental regulations. These issues can be resolved by switching to other fuels. Biofuels are being actively investigated due to the reduced complexity associated with their production, storage, transportation, and application in internal combustion engines compared to other options. Ethanol is a promising alternative fuel due to its high energy density and low environmental impact. The Indian government had previously required gasoline to be blended with 10% ethanol as part of a plan to cut oil imports. This study presents ethanol as a potential alternative fuel for gasoline engines in the Indian context.
