| Summary: | The transportation sector holds a big share of the emission to
the atmosphere. The emission of Green House Gas (GHG)
leads to the thinning of the ozone layer. This situation leads to
global warming. An international summit in Kyoto 1997
decided to stabilize the Green House Gas (GHG) emission.
Therefore, many types of research have been conducted to
reduce emissions. Improving engine performance is another
method to reduce the amount of gasoline usage. One of the
methods is to reduce emissions is by using alternative fuels.
hydrogen, alcohol, and biofuel are among the examples.
Among the alternatives, alcohol is a very popular alternative
used in an internal combustion engine. This paper aims at
reviewing the effect of alcohol on the performance and
emission of the use of alcohol inside the spark-ignition
engine. This review has confirmed that alcohol serves as good alternative fuel, especially if it is mixed at a good ratio with gasoline. With a good blend of alcohol-gasoline, emission can be reduced significantly. |
