The Pure Energy patent just showed up on this patent database: patent.womplex.ibm.com 5697987 : Alternative fuel ------------------------------------------------------------------- INVENTORS: Paul; Stephen F., Princeton, NJ ASSIGNEES: The Trustees of Princeton University, Princeton, NJ ISSUED: Dec. 16, 1997 FILED: May 10, 1996 ... ABSTRACT: A spark ignition motor fuel composition consisting essentially of: a hydrocarbon component containing one or more hydrocarbons selected from five to eight carbon atoms straight-chained or branched alkanes essentially free of olefins, aromatics, benzene and sulfur... ______________________________________ It tells what the co-solvent is: 2-methyltetrahydrofuran. I don't know if this is made in the process, but clearly it is added to help blend the ethanol with the C5-C7 hydrocarbon mixture. I'm not surprised details of the process are not disclosed. In my experience, product patents are more easily enforced, and process patents are minimized (to protect trade secrets).
