Titanium alloyed with kon is a candidate for soHd-hydride energy storage material for automotive fuel. The hydride, FeTiH2, absorbs and releases hydrogen at low temperatures. This hydride stores 0.9 kWh /kg. To provide the energy equivalent to a tank of gasoline would thus requke about 800-kg... 

Automotive Fuels. About 90% of the toluene generated by catalytic reforming is blended into gasoline as a component of >C5 reformate. 

Chemical Resistance. Fluorocarbon elastomer compounds show excellent resistance to automotive fuels and oils, hydrocarbon solvents, aircraft fuels and oils, hydrauHc fluids, and certain chlorinated solvents, and may be used without reservation. 

Ethanol has been used in the United States to a considerable extent as an antifreeze but it has largely been replaced for such use by ethylene glycol. The use of fermentation alcohol in automotive fuel has been discussed above. Several tropical countries consider ethanol, produced from regenerable resources, an attractive petrochemical feedstock. 

Ethane is used by petrochemical plants to make ethylene, a primary building block for many plastic products. Butane and condensate are used by refineries producing automotive fuel. For production of NGL s (natural gas liquids), die plant s recovery rate of 98% of ediane and 100% of all odier liquid products contained in natural gas, is among die best in die world. 

While EVOH is of interest primarily for food packaging applications attention is now being turned to non-food outlets such as automotive fuel tanks, floor heating pipes and toothpaste tubes. 

The generation of au pollutants, ineluding VOC s, from automotive vehieles was identified to eome from two prineipal sourees vehiele exhaust emissions, and fuel system evaporative emissions [4], Evaporative emissions are defmed as the automotive fuel vapors generated and released from the vehiele s fuel system due to the interactions of the speeific fuel in use, the fuel system characteristics, and environmental factors. The sources of the evaporative emissions are discussed below and, as presented m the remainder of this chapter, control of these evaporative emissions are the focus of the application of activated carbon technology in automotive systems.

A number of such processes were established before the second World War in Germany, Japan, and France for the production of hydrocarbon mixtures in the liquid fuel range (P2). This way of manufacturing automotive fuels is now uneconomical in most areas, but related processes may be utilized for the production of various chemicals, such as paraffinic waxes or oxygenated compounds. (The manufacture of methanol from carbon monoxide and hydrogen, usually by catalytic reaction in fixed-bed gas-particle operation, is an important process of this type.)...

Petroleum hydrocarbons are used as automotive fuels and as monomers for the production of a range of plastics. They provide the basis of the petrochemical industry and the halogenated derivatives, which are discussed in Part 2 of this chapter.

Large oil spills near wells and from tankers pose the most vivid display of concern. However, oil pollution can also be seen in situations such as contaminated soil from automotive fuel spills, industrial spills, tank leaks, and household grease wastes. 

Their discoveries—white clothes, cheap soap and sugar, brightly colored washable fabric, clean water, fertilizer, powerful aviation and automotive fuel, safe refrigerants, synthetic textiles, pesticides, and lead-free fuel and food—were enthusiastically embraced by the buying public. Few of us today would want to do without them.
