Overview / Open Energy Ontology / Class - biogasoline

Label: biogasoline

Definition:

Biogasoline is a portion of matter that has a liquid state of matter and has a gasoline fuel role. It consists of bioethanol, biomethanol and products of these two substances. It is made from vegetable or animal material and thus has a biogenic origin.

Editor note:

The term gasoline was chosen as this term is more often used in energy modelling and energy statistics. This is a deliberate deviation from the convention of British English spelling in the OEO.

Definition:

A portion of matter is an aggregate of material entities that have a state of matter.

Editor note:

Portions of matter describe mass nouns like e.g. water, air and fuel. Mass nouns are uncountable, but portions of these can be quantified, like 1 glass of water, 1 m³ of air or 1 barrel of fuel.
