Science - Chemistry; Chem Sci/Eng | | German term or phrase: 98 V-% Poweralkohol | es geht um die Leistung eines Biokraftwerks und die Produktion von Bioethanol in den möglichen Gebrauchsformen
Ethanolkraftstoff für den Einsatz in mobilen Ottomotoren mit 98 V-% Poweralkohol
Volumenprozent = % by volume

Vielleicht power alcohol, 98% by volume?
Was meint ihr?
