Abstract
In the last twelve years there has been an expanding study throughout the world which has reestablished alcohols as fuels and as prime candidates for extending and supplementing petroleum fuels in the ground transportation sector. This paper presents a summary of the evidence to date relative to performance and environmental factors as they relate to alcohol fuel use in internal combustion engines.
