Sooting tendencies of terpenes and hydrogenated terpenes as sustainable transportation biofuels Open
Terpenes are a diverse group of molecules that are synthesized by plants and microorganisms through combining units of isoprene (2 methyl 1,3 butadiene). They typically contain rings and methyl branches, which gives them high energy densit…

Performance-advantaged ether diesel bioblendstock production by a priori design Open
Significance The development of market-ready biofuels requires advantaged performance, minimal environmental impact, infrastructure compatibility, and economic feasibility. Here, we leverage conventional and emerging fuel property predicti…

Camphorane as a Renewable Diesel Blendstock Produced by Cyclodimerization of Myrcene Open
Camphorene was synthesized by the thermal Diels–Alder cyclodimerization of myrcene and subsequently hydrogenated to produce camphorane. On the basis of common fuel metrics (density, lower heating value, cetane, and viscosity) the prepared …
