Wu, Shiliang published the artcileThe regulated emissions and PAH emissions of bio-based long-chain ethers in a diesel engine, Application In Synthesis of 539-88-8, the main research area is polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon emission ether diesel engine.
Catalytic etherification is a new and developing method for the upgradation of pyrolysis bio-oil into high performance bio-based long-chain ethers. In this work, the application of bio-based long-chain ether oxygenated additives in diesel engines have been checked by focusing on their regulated emissions and PAH emissions. Four bio-based long-chain ethers with similar structures, including: Polyoxymethylene di-Me ether, diglyme, dipropylene glycol di-Me ether and tripropylene glycol Me ether have been blended with diesel fuel and tested in a small-duty diesel engine. The results showed that long-chain ethers were beneficial to the reduction of regulated emissions by comparing to pure diesel. Polyoxymethylene di-Me ether and tripropylene glycol Me ether showed best performance among the four tested ethers. Polyoxymethylene di-Me ether could reduce 56% CO, 23% NO and 93% soot emissions, while Tripropylene glycol Me ether could reduce 52% CO, 28% NO and 88% soot emissions. Besides, the particle sizes of soot particles from the blended fuels were also reduced. What’s more, the addition of bio-based long-chain ethers could reduce particulate PAHs emissions by 39% ∼ 67% and reduce gaseous PAHs emissions by 25% ∼ 44%, and the PAHs toxicity was also reduced by 32% ∼ 55%. This work proved that the structure of oxygen atoms evenly distributed in the chain could efficiently suppress the production of soot precursors and eventually reduce the soot emission.
