More details
Ethanol in fuels produce less carbon monoxide due to its more complete combustion and higher oxygen content. Incomplete combustion also creates hydrocarbons. Ethanol also produces less nitrogen oxide emissions which have a huge impact on the environment and humans. Ethanol creates less fine particulate matter which caused an estimated 200,000 premature deaths in 2014. Most engines can convert ethanols energy better and run better. While fuel consumption does go up energy efficiency also goes up.
