Oxymethylene ethers are synthetic compounds of carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen (CH 3 O(CH 2 O) n CH 3 ). Due to their high oxygen concentration, they suppress pollutant formation in combustion. As diesel fuels, they reduce the emission of carbon black and NO x. A 15% OME blend reduces CO 2 emissions by approximately 8g/km.
