Abstract

In view of rising concerns over global warming it is very important to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and accelerate decarbonization. Worldwide transportation sector has a massive contribution in producing greenhouse gases over periods. So, depletion of GHG emission is of utmost importance. Petroleum refining industries continuously made efforts to control CHG emissions by formulating high octane gasoline fuels which increase vehicle efficiency and enhance fuel economy for spark ignition internal combustion engines. High Octane gasoline fuels helps in reducing knocking of the SI Engine cars and eventually intensify vehicle efficiency and fuel economy. Over the period of time several potential chemical octane boosters were developed to improve the octane number of the standard gasoline fuel. Aromatic Amine derivatives are well known octane boosters. This present review work summaries the available data regarding the mechanistic interpretation of antiknock action of aromatic amines by controlling the auto ignition process of hydrocarbon fuels. Key Words: Fuel Economy, Engine Efficiency, Octane Booster, Resonance, Autoignition, Research Octane Number
