Abstract: An unleaded reduced emissions gasoline having at least one of an octane less than about 86.7, a sulfur content less than about 40 ppmw sulfur and containing an oxygenate, and having reduced emissions by comparison to a minimum 87 octane gasoline. A method for reducing emissions from an automotive internal combustion engine is provided for a single vehicle and for a fleet. A method for reducing emissions by use of a distribution network is disclosed and a system for reducing emissions by a combination of a refinery and the vehicles is disclosed.

Abstract: An improved liquid-dispensing nozzle and more specifically, an improved vapor recovery means for a nozzle comprising a vapor collector (such as a flexible bellows) surrounding a portion of the discharge spout in spaced relation thereto, one end of which is sealed to the upper portion of the spout; and at the other end of the vapor collector, a compressible cellular plastic material such as foamed plastic associated therewith. When the discharge spout is inserted into, e.g., an automobile fillpipe, the compressible cellular plastic material forms a vapor seal with the upper end of the fillpipe whereby the vapors escaping from the fillpipe are directed into the interior chamber formed between the exterior of the discharge spout and the inside of the vapor collector thereby minimizing the escape of vapors to the atmosphere. The vapors are then removed from this chamber.
