- the moisture-ethanol mixture is separated from the gasoline as water is absorbed into the gasoline.
- butanol mixed gasoline unlike ethanol mixed gasoline, does not require additional installations in storage, transportation, supply systems and vehicles.
- butanol A relative advantage of the other butanols is that the vapor pressure is lower than that of ethanol, and thus the probability of vapor lock in an automobile engine is low. Butanol also has an air to fuel ratio close to gasoline compared to ethanol, so that a relatively larger amount can be mixed into gasoline without affecting engine performance.
- butanol has the disadvantage that it is difficult to be used as a octane booster (booster), such as ethanol, MTBE, ETBE, since the octane number is about the same level as gasoline as shown in Table 1 below.

Thereby, the process of primaryly removing the water contained can further be added.
