Calibration Method for the Determination of the FAME and HVO Contents in Fossil Diesel Blends Using NIR Spectroscopy
(MPDI, 2021-05-07)
- article
The European diesel fuel standard, EN590, allows a 7% (V/V) biodiesel (FAME) addition to automotive diesel fuel. The allowed addition of renewable diesel (HVO) to fossil diesel is not defined, as long as the properties of ...
Performance and emissions of a medium-speed engine driven with sustainable options of liquid fuels
(SAE International, 2020-09-15)
- article
Energy production and transport are major global contributors of greenhouse gas emissions. Both sectors should reduce their use of fossil energy sources. Pollutant emissions must also be reduced without jeopardizing energy ...
Effects of Crude Tall Oil Based Renewable Diesel on the Performance and Emissions of a Non-Road Diesel Engine
(SAE International, 2021-09-21)
- article
Environmental concerns and government policies aiming to increase biofuel shares have led to the search for alternative fuels from a variety of renewable raw materials. The development of hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO) ...
Crude Tall Oil based Renewable Diesel: Performance, Emission Characteristics and Storage Stability
(SAE International, 2021-09-21)
