    Emerging Analytical Methods for Quantitative Determination of Biofuel-Petroleum Fuel Blends Composition
    Author(s): Anupama Vijayan and John Prakash*

    Bioethanol blending with petroleum fuels is being practiced all over the world to cut down on fuel prices and in-order to curb vehicular emissions. However, variations from the stipulated amount of bioethanol in petroleum fuels can be caused intentionally or unintentionally and is detrimental to engine life and performance. In recent times, research has progressed to introducing portable devices that are capable of sensitively and rapid analyzing real samples without prior pre-treatment. The focus of this review will be the emerging trends in the field of blended fuel analysis. Application of techniques such as electrochemical, spectroscopic and those based on physical and electrical parameters will be discussed in the review... View more»
