An unleaded reduced emissions gasoline having at least one of an octane less than about 86.7, a sulfur content less than about 40 ppmw sulfur and containing an oxygenate, and having reduced emissions by comparison to a minimum 87 octane gasoline. A method for reducing emissions from an automotive internal combustion engine is provided for a single vehicle and for a fleet. A method for reducing emissions by use of a distribution network is disclosed and a system for reducing emissions by a combination of a refinery and the vehicles is disclosed.

Method and an unleaded low emission gasoline for fueling an automotive engine with reduced emissions

The coextrusion device (20) of the present invention can be used with conventional extruders (24-26) and extrusion dies (90) for forming layered products (91) from at least two materials. It includes a manifold (21) for receiving a plurality of extruded feed materials (A, B, C) and a feedblock (22) receiving the feed materials from the manifold. The feedblock includes first and second faces (43, 52), entrance ports (40, 41, 42) in the first face corresponding to the number of feed materials, channel means (50, 60, 70) passing through the feedblock between the first and second faces directing each feed material into at least one separate profile, and exit ports (51, 61, 71) in the second face corresponding to the number of channel means, defining a first profile for each feed material. An adaptor (23) is provided for receiving the first profiles from the feedblock and includes first and second faces (82, 85), an entrance port (83) in the first face receiving said first profiles, an exit port (84) in the second face corresponding to the entrance of the extrusion die and, a transition zone (86) between the entrance and exit ports wherein the first profiles become contiguous and the overall configuration of the contiguous first profiles is adapted for receipt by the extrusion die. The device can further include a reverser plate (110) and alternate feedblocks (130 ) having different exit ports (139, 140, 152, 153). Lastly, a method is provided for reducing perturbation while coextruding, utilizing a device of the present invention.
