The chemical composition of diesel particulate emissions

Jan 21, 1992

Report no. 92/51: In July 1990 CONCAWE published a report on the influence of diesel fuel sulphur content on particulate emissions. The chemical analysis procedures employed in that programme for the identification of particulate constituents are described in this...

The sulphur content of diesel fuel and its relationship with particulate emissions from diesel engines

Jul 21, 1990

Report no. 90/54: This report gives the results of a research programme to investigate the influence of diesel fuel sulphur content on diesel engine exhaust particulate emissions. A representative range of current light-duty vehicles (nine) and heavy-duty engines...

Closing the gasoline system – control of gasoline emissions from the distribution system and vehicles

Apr 13, 1990

Report no. 3/90: This report shows that a series of measures effectively closing up the gasoline system of distribution and use in motor vehicles is the preferred strategy to control gasoline emissions. These emissions contribute about 40% to the volatile organic...

The effects of temperature and fuel volatility on vehicle evaporative emissions

Jan 21, 1990

Report no. 90/51: Matched pairs of European vehicles with and without carbon canister evaporative emission control systems have been tested to establish gasoline evaporative emissions, including running losses.Measurements were made over a range of ambient...

Costs to reduce the sulphur content of diesel fuel

Nov 13, 1989

Report no. 10/89: This study examines the consequences to refineries of making step-wise reductions in the sulphur content of diesel fuel from 0.26 to 0.05% wt. The EC-12’s 95 refineries have been grouped into four categories for the purposes of representing...
