R-542, Automotive Fuels Reference Book,
Fourth Edition
The earlier editions of this title have been bestselling
definitive references for those needing
technical information about automotive fuels.
This long-awaited latest edition has been
thoroughly revised and updated, yet retains the
original fundamental fuels information that
readers find so useful.
This book is written for those with an interest in
or a need to understand automotive fuels. Because
automotive fuels can no longer be developed in
isolation from the engines that will convert the fuel
into the power necessary to drive our automobiles,
knowledge of automotive fuels will also be essential
to those working with automotive engines.
Small quantities of fuel additives increasingly play
an important role in bridging the gap that often exists
between fuel that can easily be produced and fuel
that is needed by the ever-more sophisticated
automotive engine. This book pulls together-in a
single, extensively referenced volume-the three
different but related topics of automotive fuels, fuel
additives, and engines, and shows how all three areas
work together.
It includes a brief history of automotive fuels
development, followed by chapters on automotive
fuels manufacture from crude oil and other fossil
sources. One chapter is dedicated to the manufacture
of automotive fuels and fuel blending components
from renewable sources, including e-fuels. The safe
handling, transport, and storage of fuels, from all
sources, are covered.
New combustion systems to achieve reduced
emissions and increased efficiency are discussed, and
the way in which the fuels' physical and chemical

characteristics affect these
combustion processes and the
emissions produced are included.
As CO2 is now an important
emission, there is also discussion
regarding low- and non-carbon
fuels and how they might be
used.
There is also discussion on
engine fuel system development
and how these different systems
affect the corresponding fuel
requirements. Because the book
is for a global market, fuel system
technologies that only exist in the
legacy fleet in some markets are
