DME produces zero soot, zero sulfur oxides (SO x ), less NO x and also significantly reduces greenhouse gas emissions compared to diesel (especially if made from biogas). DME is a gas under ambient conditions. DME’s easy handling properties make fueling and infrastructure relatively simple and inexpensive. Earlier post.).
