Mixture of gasoline and ethanol derived from fermented agricultural products containing at least nine percent ethanol. Gasohol emissions contain less carbon monoxide than those from gasoline.
A registered trademark of an agency of the state of Nebraska, for an automotive fuel containing a blend of 10 percent ethanol and 90 percent gasoline.
An alternative motor fuel that is a blend of 90 percent ordinary gasoline and 10 percent ethanol fermented from biomass (e.g., corn). It can be used interchangeably with gasoline in conventional cars. In an effort to encourage its use, under federal law gasohol is taxed at a lower rate than straight gasoline.
a gasoline substitute consisting of 90% gasoline and 10% grain alcohol from corn
fuel made by distilling grain, wood, or other plant products into ethyl alcohol and mixing the alcohol with gasoline.
In the United States, gasohol refers to gasoline that contains 10% ethanol by volume. This term was used in the late 1970s and early 1980s but has been largely replaced by terms such as E10, Super Unleaded Plus Ethanol or Unleaded Plus Ethanol.
Mixture of gasoline and alcohol.
A blend of finished motor gasoline (leaded or unleaded) and alcohol (generally ethanol but sometimes methanol) in which 10 percent or more of the product is alcohol.
Registered trade name for a blend consisting of 90% unleaded gasoline and 10% fermentation ethanol. Gasohol emissions contain less carbon monoxide than those from gasoline.
A blend of 10% anhydrous ethanol (ethyl alcohol) and 90% gasoline, by volume. Used as a motor fuel.
A blend of finished motor gasoline containing alcohol (generally ethanol but sometimes methanol) at a concentration between 5.7 percent and 10 percent by volume. The term, gasohol, was used in the late 1970s and early 1980s, but has been replaced in some areas of the country by terms such as E10, Super Unleaded With Ethanol, or Unleaded Plus. Also see Oxygenate.
A mixture of gasoline (petrol) and ethanol or methanol used as a fuel for gasoline-powered motors. Since ethanol and methanol can be produced from waste agricultural and wood products, the production of gasohol has been seen as a means of reducing energy loss caused when these materials are discarded, while at the same time reducing the demand for gasoline.
A blend of finished motor gasoline (leaded or unleaded) and alcohol (generally ethanol but sometimes methanol) limited to 10 percent by volume of alcohol. Gasohol is included in finished leaded and unleaded motor gasoline.
Fuel; blend of ethanol and unleaded gasoline, usually 10 percent ethanol and 90 percent gasoline. See ethanol.
A blend of gasoline and ethanol alcohol that usually is 90% gasoline and 10% ethanol. Ethanol is the alcohol found in intoxicating beverages. It may attack rubber and plastic parts of fuel systems not designed to handle alcohol-blended fuels, but it is not poisonous to human beings like wood alcohol or methanol.
