Abstract:Alcohols from biological waste sources or renewable electricity (electrofuels) are gaining attention in hard-to-decarbonize sectors such as transport. Adding alcohol to conventional fuels has positive environmental effects on automotive applications, requiring minimal engine adjustments. Employing a combination of terahertz (THz) and gigahertz (GHz) spectroscopies, a comprehensive analysis of model fitting is presented for diesel-like fuels, pure alcohols (ethanol and n-butanol), and alcohol-fuel blends.
