Abstract: Many developed countries promote biofuels to fight against climate change. The blend of ethanol and ethyl tert-butyl ether (ETBE) with gasoline is a common way to increase the renewable energy content of fuel. The use of bio-isobutanol instead of or in addition to ethanol can help solve some problems of ethanol.
