Diesel Fuel Quality Needs:

  • Improve Cetane Number and Index
  • Control Density, Viscosity, Distillation
  • Improve Lubricity
  • Reduce Sulphur
  • Control Ash
  • Improve Cold Flow
  • Include Detergency
  • Eliminate ethanol in diesel

Gasoline Fuel Quality Needs:

  • Eliminate Metal Additives (No Pb, Mn, Fe)
  • Eliminate Silicon
  • Improve Octane
  • Reduce Sulphur
  • Control Vapour Pressure
  • Control Volatility
  • Reduce Benzene
  • Improve Detergency
  • Control Aromatics and Olefins

Bio-based Fuels Market is Growing

  • Evaluate Vehicle Compatibility

Avoid Separating Fuels from Emissions

Real-Life Scenario #1

New Emission Standards Introduced - Low Sulfur Diesel – Decreased Lubricity (worsened) – Fuel System Concerns Solution: Use Diesel Lubricity Additives

Real-Life Scenario #2

Tier 2 Emission Standards – Introduced Advanced Emission Control – Manganese in Gasoline – Deposits Plugging Catalysts Solution: Provide Manganese-Free Gasoline

Real-Life Scenario #3

Biofuel – Inadequate Stability – Biofuel Blend Degrades – Performance based Stability Specifications Required Solution: Develop Adequate Fuel Specifications

More stringent Emission Regulations require the use

  • f more advanced emission control technologies

which drives the need for improved fuel quality Fuel quality must be compatible with vehicle technology Data clearly shows the link between fuel quality and vehicle emissions Need exists to treat the fuel and vehicle as a system Market Fuel Quality needs to be part of the UN-ECE Regulations
