mtbe was developed by ARCO Chemical.. and the refineries had to get out of unleaded gas.. your background is how i remember it being adopted.. it was cheaper to run mtbe through the refineries than a blend of ethanol. I believe the refineries running ethanol would have required changes in the blending method and equipment. I believe ARCO Chemical was bought out ten years ago and may be this company that is suing now. Under new bill refineries will be required to process more ethanol. I wonder if they have to make these investments now? Perhaps the bill covers huge tax incentives to change over.. The bill stinks... we do not need ethanol and it is a waste of energy. I thought Senator from New Hampshire is against the pork in the bill not mtbe. If so he will not change his vote.
