| 31. | The original 1899 publication concerned the conversion of " n "-butanol to 2-ethylhexanol.
|
| 32. | From the little I've read, it sounds likely that SwiftFuel is an ethanol-butanol mix.
|
| 33. | It is manufactured by the esterification of acetic acid with n-butanol in the presence of suitable acid catalyst.
|
| 34. | Therefore, companies like BP and DuPont have been looking at the next generation of biofuel, specifically investigating butanol.
|
| 35. | Butanol production from glycerol is economically viable using metabolic pathways that exist in " Clostridium pasteurianum " bacterium.
|
| 36. | In 2012 researchers developed a method for storing electrical energy as chemical energy in higher alcohols ( including butanol ).
|
| 37. | However, the production of butanol from glycerol by fermentation in " C . Pasteurianum " is low.
|
| 38. | For this reason, butanol is used as an alternative to shorter alcohols when a more viscous solvent is desired.
|
| 39. | I thought of this issue a while ago, but say you start out with 1-butanol or something.
|
| 40. | Volatile esters of 2-butanol have pleasant aromas and are used in small amounts as perfumes or in artificial flavors.
