The effect of methyl tert-butyl ether (TAME) on improving octane rating

2015-07-29View Original

Thread Content

I would like to ask the experts here. I work in gasoline blending; MTBE is commonly used to increase octane rating, but it is expensive and has a strong odor. I’ve heard that TAME can also raise the octane rating – is this true? What is the specific way of using it? Also, there are very few manufacturers in the market that offer TAME services; could you recommend some? Thank you

It’s effective; currently, there are still quite a number of manufacturers producing MTBE, so it’s easy to find them.

Hey, is Tame in production? What’s the approximate addition ratio?

TAME density: 0.74, octane rating: 117. Synthesized from the fraction before 60 degrees in catalytic gasoline.

Are there any manufacturers there? Thank you, let me know. Or is it available for sale there?

There are many local refineries that blend oil on their own; they do not sell it.

The scope of application is limited, generally to combined units for gasoline hydrogenation and light gasoline etherification
