DME offers diesel-quality performance with a high cetane number and low auto-ignition temperature, but burns cleanly without producing any soot. It is an excellent compression ignition fuel which, like diesel, requires no separate ignition mechanism. Because DME produces no soot, no diesel particulate filter (DPF) is necessary.
