Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - Data available for evaluating the risk and benefits of MTBE and ethanol as alternative fuel oxygenates

Notas: In this article, we summarize the currently aviable literature on the air and water quality risks and benefits of Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether (MTBE) verus ethanol as alternative fuel oxygenetes. We find that MTBE-fuel blends are likely to have substantial air quality benefits; ethanol-fuel blends appear to offer similar beneficts, but these may be at least partially negated because of ethanol's propensity to increase emissions and ambient concentrations of some air contaminantsRegistros relacionados: En: Risk analysis : an international journal. - New York and London : Society for Risk Analysis. - Vol. 23, nº 5, October, 2003 ; p. 1085-1115Materia / lugar / evento: Contaminación atmosférica Calidad del aire Etanol Gasolina Análisis costo-beneficio Valoración de riesgos Protección del medio ambiente Otros autores: Cushing, Colleen A.
