Descrizione del progetto DEENESFRITPL Adeguare i motori degli aeromobili al carburante a base di etanolo La maggior parte degli aeromobili dotati di motore a pistoni è alimentata da carburante di aviazione al piombo o avgas, il che li rende le più grandi fonti di emissioni di piombo altamente tossiche nell’aria. Il progetto UECGA2, finanziato dall’UE, sta analizzando la possibilità di adeguare i motori a pistoni affinché possano funzionare a benzina e bioetanolo, un carburante rinnovabile per il trasporto, nonché un’alternativa sicura al piombo dell’avgas, permettendo così di ridurre le emissioni di carbonio complessive. L’etanolo miscelato alla benzina potrebbe contribuire ad abbassare del 30-40 % i costi per il carburante di piccoli aeromobili. I ricercatori eseguiranno uno studio di fattibilità per garantire che l’impiego del bioetanolo nel settore dell’aviazione soddisfi livelli di sicurezza accettabili e possa quindi essere certificato dall’agenzia europea per la sicurezza aerea e dall’amministrazione federale dell’aviazione. Mostra l’obiettivo del progetto Nascondi l’obiettivo del progetto Obiettivo Majority of piston engine powered General Aviation aircraft are running on aviation gasoline (Avgas) grades that are more expensive than Ethanol containing gasoline grades used by automobiles. In addition, most of the piston aero engines are still burning lead containing Avgas (100LL). No certified solution is available to allow operation of aircraft engines with Ethanol containing, EN 228 Standard fuel grade.Consequently, the project aims to result in certified modifications of the common piston aero engines and small aircraft that allow use of Ethanol containing gasoline. It will reduce fuel cost (30-40%) for small aircraft, while it will not require replacement of old engines. Yet, it will involve replacement of some parts and changes to operational procedures leading to an economical solution. The project will also allow eliminating lead containing Avgas and introducing renewable energy using Ethanol. This will reduce greenhouse gas emission, combating climate change and contributing to environmental protection.Introduction of Ethanol containing gasoline for aviation triggers safety risks that should be mitigated to reach an acceptable level of safety to gain certification from the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in the USA. Certification may be achieved if it is demonstrated that the modifications comply with the airworthiness requirements and will not lead to unsafe condition.Technical feasibility will be verified through the analysis of the safety risks as well as the determination of the applicable airworthiness requirements and means of compliances, by means of the certification programmes accepted by EASA. Commercial feasibility will be shown through market research and analysis.The feasibility study will pave the way to the modifications and completion of compliance demonstrations as well as certification, to allow safe operation with Ethanol containing gasoline.
