BE-6
ADVANTAGES OF METHANOL AS FUEL COMPONENT
• it can be obtained from well known fossil derived and in part from renewable energy
sources, as well,
• improves the combustion (lower total emission compared even to ethanol),
• lower volatility than of gasoline,
• high research and motor octane number,
• relatively low ozone forming activity,
• it can be transported via pipeline,
• cheaper than ethanol,
• the NOX and particle emission is lower than in the case of conventional engine fuels,
• its flames can be extinguished with water,
• lower combustion temperature than in the case of gasoline (sparing of structural
materials),
• can be applied in fuel cells,
• carbon dioxide emission is reduced when it is produced from biomass,
• several elastomers are suitable for seals (e.g. fluorine silicone rubber, styrene butadiene
rubber, ethylene propylene terpolymer rubber).
BE-7
DISADVANTAGES OF METHANOL AS FUEL COMPONENT
• toxic,
• because of its limited solubility, according to the valid European standard (EN 228:2010),
only 3 v/v% methanol can be blended into motor fuels in the absence of a co-solvent.

ADVANTAGES OF ETHANOL AS FUEL COMPONENT II.
• biodegradability,
• lower ozone generation ability than that of gasoline (but higher than that
of methanol),
• less toxic than methanol,
• it enables to operate with lean mixture resulting in lower carbon
monoxide and hydrocarbon emission (hydrogen/carbon ratio higher than
in the case of gasoline),
• protection of topsoil and groundwater, improvement of the living
conditions
• social/economical advantages:
•sparing with fossil energy sources,
•increasing of appointability of low trained workers,
•new workplaces in agriculture,
•balanced realization of well-being,
•assisting to the decentralized energy production,
•decreasing of energy dependency.

MAIN PROPERTIES OF DME AND DIESEL FUEL
DME-44
ADVANTAGES OF DME
DME-45
DISADVANTAGES OF DME
• Special storage tank and injection method (lower energy content),
• Maximum limit of DME in diesel fuel could be ca. 20% due to its low viscosity,
• DME should be filtered before the injection,
• New type of seals and gaskets should be developed and used,
• Poor lubricity, need for higher concentration of additives,
• Cavitation due to the high vapor pressure, injection could changing,
• Higher energy demand of concentration before the injection
