Ethanol is widely used in petrol-ethanol blends, including in the European Union. Since the fuel type has a great impact on emissions, blends of differing ethanol content can have a great impact on exhaust emissions. This paper presents a variety of data on regulated and unregulated exhaust emissions from European vehicles running on various petrol-ethanol blends tested under laboratory conditions at BOSMAL. Some fundamental phenomena are discussed and the reader is directed to sources of further information. Furthermore, some brief comparisons to other studies are made and general comments are made on emissions trends regarding petrol-ethanol blends.
