Comparison of performance characteristics of liquid biofuels and petroleum fuels

  • Published:
Chemistry and Technology of Fuels and Oils Aims and scope

The performance properties of different types of liquid biofuels (bioalcohols, biodiesel, etc.) are examined. They are compared with the properties of petroleum fuels. It is shown that the properties of fuels of biological and petroleum origin differ significantly.
