Is All Gasoline in Hebei Ethanol-Based?

[AustinLynn]

All gasoline in Hebei is ethanol gasoline. Ethanol gasoline is an alternative energy source formed by blending fuel ethanol, processed from grains and various plant fibers, with regular gasoline in a specific ratio. According to China's national standards, ethanol gasoline consists of 90% regular gasoline and 10% fuel ethanol, creating a mixture. Adding an appropriate amount of ethanol to gasoline as a vehicle fuel can conserve petroleum resources, reduce air pollution from vehicle emissions, and promote agricultural production. The advantages of ethanol gasoline are as follows: 1. Oxygen Content: Ethanol gasoline has a high oxygen content, enabling more complete fuel combustion and effectively reducing harmful emissions. 2. Compression Ratio: Ethanol's high octane rating allows for a higher compression ratio, improving engine thermal efficiency and power. Additionally, its high latent heat of vaporization increases engine air intake, enhancing power output. 3. Storage and Transportation: Ethanol is liquid at room temperature, making it easy to handle, store, and transport. 4. Cleaning Effect: Ethanol has excellent cleaning properties, effectively removing deposits and condensation of fuel impurities in vehicle fuel tanks and fuel systems.
