Updated and Fully Revised – Gasoline Blending: An EPRINC Primer

EPRINC has just published a complete revision of its Gasoline Blending Primer. This expanded version of the Primer concisely explains the evolution of gasoline production and formulation from early efforts to meet rising performance standards to recent blends required by more rigorous pollution regulations and biofuel mandates.

In the process, finished gasoline that was once a simple combination of a few refined petroleum components usable across a wide geographic space has evolved to many formulations that have become increasingly complex adjusted for the requirements of different regulatory jurisdictions,” commented Max Pyziur, EPRINC’s Research Director. “This is a formidable achievement, but it comes with increasing costs.”

The Primer is updated with discussions of current policy considerations and issues. It is available here.
