Abstract: A process of producing high octane alcohols includes the steps of preparing a first mixture of substantially ethanol and butane or natural gasoline, the mixture having a certain temperature and a certain pressure, adjusting the certain pressure of the mixture to a magnitude within the range of 10 to 50 pounds per square inch, adjusting the temperature of the mixture to a magnitude within the range of 100 to 350 degrees Fahrenheit, adjusting the pressure of the mixture to a pressure within the range of 500 to 1000 pounds per square inch, catalyzing the mixture with a platinum catalyst, lowering the temperature of the mixture to a magnitude within a range of 90 to 190 degrees Fahrenheit, and separating out liquid product and gas from the mixture. Then a second mixture of said liquid product and methanol is prepared and the process steps are repeated on this second mixture to produce a second product plus gas.

Abstract: A process of producing high octane hydrocarbons includes the steps of preparing a mixture of substantially ethanol and butane or natural gasoline, or low octane gasoline, the mixture having room temperature and atmospheric pressure, adjusting the pressure of the mixture to a magnitude within the range of 10 to 50 pounds per square inch, adjusting the temperature of the mixture to a magnitude within the range of 100 to 460 degrees Fahrenheit, adjusting the pressure of the mixture to a pressure within the range of 500 to 1000 hydrocarbons pounds per square inch, catalyzing the mixture with a platinum catalyst, lowering the temperature of the mixture to a magnitude within a range of 90 to 190 degrees Fahrenheit, and separating out liquid product and gas from the mixture.

Abstract: Internal combustion engine liquid fuels are produced by the mixing of a natural gasoline component and at least one octane-enhancing component. The mix is weathered during the blending operation to remove light-weight hydrocarbons comprising one- to four-carbon components. The light-weight hydrocarbons, which preferably constitute less than 3 percent of the blended fuel, can be recovered to generate power to run the process. The liquid fuel mixture is formulated to produce a desired octane rating, an environmentally acceptable vapor pressure, and a mix which, when burned in an internal combustion engine, produces a minimum amount of pollutants.

Abstract: Blended gasolines are produced by the mixing of a butane-pentane rich component, a natural gasoline component, and at least one octane-enhancing component. The mix is weathered during the blending operation to remove light-weight hydrocarbons comprising two, three and four-carbon components. The light-weight hydrocarbons, which preferably constitute less than 3 percent of the blended gasoline, can be recovered to generate power to run the process. The liquid gasoline mixture is formulated to produce a desired octane rating, an environmentally acceptable vapor pressure, and a mix which, when burned in an internal combustion engine, produces a minimum amount of pollutants.
