Degradation of gasoline oxygenates in the subsurface

Degradation of gasoline oxygenates in the subsurface

Tertiary butyl alcohol (TBA), methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE) and ethyl tertiary butyl ether (ETBE) are compounds with the potential for use as oxygenates in reformulated gasolines. Being relatively soluble in water, these organics, if accidentally discharged into the subsurface, may rapidly spre...
