Study finds biodiesel blend reduces total particle mass in emissions but may have greater adverse health effect per mass than diesel

Green Car Congress

OCTOBER 10, 2013

They found that total particulate gravimetric mass collected over the engine test cycle was more than 2 times higher for B0 than for B20 fuel. Particle number distributions aggregated over one example drive cycle indicate a unimodal B0 distribution centered at 51 nm, but a B20 distribution with a smaller diameter mode at 32.2

Study finds PM from biodiesel blends may be 50-80% less toxic per unit PM mass than from petroleum diesel

Green Car Congress

JULY 15, 2017

However, the relative toxicity of biodiesel emissions compared to petroleum diesel remains unclear. nmol/min/mg PM for B0 and B100, respectively, and from 22.6 ± 4.5 Findings also suggested different combustion products between feedstocks only for the more highly oxygenated biodiesel blends (B50 and B100) used in the study.
