C201 Trend in Technological Development of Engine Systems Fuelled with Biodiesel

Abstract

This paper describes the potential of existing exhaust emission reduction technologies for diesel engines fuelled with fatty acid methyl esters(FAME), named "Biodiesel". The common-rail high-pressure injection equipment and exhaust gas recirculation(EGR) for the in-cylinder combustion improvement technology, the diesel particulate filter(DPF) and diesel oxidation catalysts(DOC) for the after-treatment technology, and the cetane improver addition for the fuel treatment technology are described based on the experimental results.
