    The document outlines generally applicable requirements and test methods for undenatured ethanol to be used as fuel. It specifies limits for various properties like ethanol content, water content, acidity, conductivity, and inorganic compounds. Undenatured ethanol must contain at least 98.7% ethanol and other alcohols, with limits on methanol, water, acidity, chloride, sulfate, copper, phosphorus, and sulfur levels. Properties are to be tested according to referenced European standards and methods to ensure fuel quality is within specified limits.
