Wang, Tiejun published the artcileHydrothermal conversion of biomass to higher alcohol fuels for compression ignition engine, Safety of 3-Pentanol, the main research area is alc fuel compression ignition engine biomass hydrothermal conversion.
Higher alc. (C5/C6 alc.) blended with diesel or bio-diesel is a promising alternative clean fuel for the compression ignition engine. The most important puzzle is the technol. development of biomass to higher alc. fuels. In this paper, a novel approach of hydrothermal conversion of biomass into C5/C6 higher alc. fuels was proposed. High yield of higher alc. fuels was obtained from the real biomass with the C5/C6 alc. selectivity of 77% under the mild hydrothermal conditions. The properties of the produced higher alc. fuels are similar to that of 0# diesel. The exhaust emission of compression ignition engine decreased vigorously by blending the higher alc. fuels with diesel at weight ratio of 20/80.
