“…Methyl branches in aliphatic carbon chains feature benecial combustion properties in fuel components. 59,60 As a possible synthetic pathway for the upgrading of biogenic alcohols to fuel components with improved combustion properties, 61,62 we therefore focused next on the selective b-methylation of purely aliphatic alcohols (Scheme 6). Ethanol proved to be a challenging substrate, but a mixture of iso-butanol (46%) from di-methylation and 1propanol (16%) from mono-methylation was obtained under 8 bar of CO and 24 bar of H 2 at an elongated reaction time of 36 h (Scheme 6, 10a).…”

“…The most prevalent and researched bioalcohols are bioethanol and biobutanol . Both of these alcohols can be burned in a pure form (E100 and B100, respectively) or a form of so-called alcohol–gasoline blends (AGBs) with a typical alcohol content ranging from 5 to 95 vol %.…”

This work deals with studying mild steel corrosion resistance in ethanol–gasoline and butanol–gasoline blends (EGBs and BGBs, respectively) with an alcohol content of 10–100 vol %. These fuels were tested in two forms: pure (noncontaminated) and purposely contaminated with water and trace amounts of acids, chlorides, and sulfate ions. Electrochemical methods, such as open circuit potential, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and polarization characteristics measurements in three-electrode arrangements were used for the study. A three-month-long static immersion test was performed as a supplementary method. The obtained results showed that the contamination led to an increase in aggressiveness of the tested fuels against the mild steel. This effect was surprisingly more noticeable for the BGBs, in which the corrosion rate increased by up to 3 orders of magnitude compared with their noncontaminated form. For the EGBs with an ethanol content of 60 vol % or more (E60 and higher), an initial quasi-passive state was observed, which was not persistent. Pitting corrosion was observed especially in the E100 fuel and in the fuels containing 40 vol % or more of butanol (B40 and higher). The E10 and B10 fuels showed very low corrosion aggressiveness even after the contamination. In the B10 fuel, the lowest mild steel corrosion rates were measured, which corresponded to the lowest corrosion current densities (3.6 × 10–3 μA cm–2) and the highest polarization resistance (13.7 MΩ cm2).

“…Also known as wood alcohol, it is alcohol, which has the simplest chemical structure and like Bioethanol, Biomethanol is produced from biomass (Minteer, 2011), but its production is more economical. It is usually mixed with fossil fuels such as gasoline and diesel, this latter mixture having a wide use in maritime transport.…”

In the Paris agreement about climate change, it was established that greenhouse gas emissions must be reduced by 0% in order to avoid irreversible damage, so the world economy based on fossil fuels must undergo a transformation towards an economy clean, safe and sustainable. As a result, it has been established that the only alternative that guarantees 0% emissions of polluting gases is the economy of hydrogen. Countries such as the Netherlands, the United States, and the European Union have projected policy towards 2050 that expects to meet the objectives set out in the Paris agreement. In this document shows the different alternative fuels that are currently being proposed to mitigate polluting emissions, as well as the overview of these fuels in Colombia, and how, from the different renewable energy sources that this country has, could venture economically and politically towards economy based on the use of hydroxy and hydrogen as a raw material and energy source, showing its possible applications. The foregoing will allow to identify the potential of application of these fuels in the energy matrix of Colombia and define policies to accelerate their implementation.
