Title
Executive Summary Literature Review Impact of Gasoline Blended with Ethanol on the Long-Term Structural Integrity of Liquid Petroleum Storage Systems and Components
American Petroleum Institute
Publication Date:
Jun 1, 2002
Scope:
This report summarizes the results of a literature review conducted
for the American Petroleum
Institute on the impact of gasoline blended with ethanol on the
long-term structural integrity of
liquid petroleum storage systems and components.
It is anticipated that the use of ethanol in motor fuels will continue
to increase. This has
generated interest about the potential long-term structural effects of
ethanol on liquid petroleum
storage systems, including underground storage tanks (USTs),
underground piping, and associated
components.
The objective of the literature review is to determine the state of
industry knowledge and research
on the effects of ethanol/gasoline blends on the long-term structural
integrity of UST systems and
components. This review is intended to assist decision-makers on
further research requirements and
needed changes or supplements to existing standards for underground
storage systems and components
used for storing and dispensing gasoline blended with ethanol.
