“…The two materials were used to form 3 different test fuels: (i) the commercially available motor gasoline E10, containing a 10 v/v% renewable component; and (ii) a blend of the two fuels with a biocomponent content of 30 v/v%. We chose the experiments with the mixture called E30 because of the following: (i) In addition to the brave renewable goals of the EU (European Union) [44], a more extensive series of E30 tests were also carried out on motor vehicles [45]. The last (ii) fuel tested was pure bioethanol (E100).…”

The air pollutant emissions of a motor vehicle do not only mean the emissions from the engine used for propelling the vehicle. Another possible source is the passenger compartment heater. In the focus of our research, we investigated the effect of mixing gasoline-powered cabin air and ethanol (E10, E30, E100 on a volumetric basis) on the emissions of the equipment. Among the pollutant components examined, there were conventional components and so called not-conventional components. The chosen length of the test was 1800 s, while the intake air parameters temperature (tin) and relative humidity (h) have been kept constant (tin = 15 °C, h = 30%). Bioethanol mixing has a significant reducing effect on NOx (oxides of nitrogen) and CO2 (carbon dioxide). As for the components CO (carbon monoxide), THC (total hydrocarbons), CH4 (methane) and N2O (nitrous oxide), the values of the components reach usable values only in the start-up and burnout phases, while in the stable-operation phase, their values are outside the limit of detectability. A small part of THC is only CH4; a more significant part is NMHC (non-methane hydrocarbons). The results of the developed vehicle fleet model for calculating the GHG (greenhouse gas) emissions of a vehicle fleet equipped with such a device showed that the fleet’s GHG emissions are less than 1% of the annual emissions from the combustion of transport fuel.

“…From the point of view of feedstock availability, Ukraine has 3.7 times more feedstock for bioethanol than it can consume for petrol (in volume values). Considering the production facilities, Ukraine already now can ensure the E10 blend, with the prospect of increasing the blend to E30 and above, which may result in significant tailpipe CO 2 emissions reduction (Alsiyabi et al, 2021).…”

The paper investigates trends in bioenergy development in Ukraine and its role in accelerating the green energy transition in the post-war period. The focus of the article is on the use of bioenergy resources for electricity generation, heat energy and liquid biofuel production. In this context, the potential of biomass, state support mechanisms, the results of their influence on bioenergy capacities deployment and the barriers restraining this sector development are considered. The study’s results proved that the inconsistency of the state policy and the failure to consider the specifics of energy production based on various bioenergy resources caused a significant lag in its development compared to other renewable energy technologies. With this in mind, the article systematizes strengths and weaknesses, opportunities and threats, and based on them, strategic recommendations for bioenergy development in Ukraine in the post-war period are developed.
