Tiivistelmä: | The USA standards for particulate emissions from heavy-duty diesel engines are likely to result in legislation for ultralow sulphur /ULS/ diesel fuel. The allowable sulphur content of this fuel is greatly reduced, the aromatics content is limited. The legislation is to be in place in 1995. The impacts of ULS diesel fuel production on other refined petroleum products have been studied. It is predicted that to produce ULS fuel, USA Gulf and West coast refiners will have to invest about 4.4 billion USD in new processing capacity. Refineries will shift aromatics from No 2 diesel fuel to jet fuel and to No 2 fuel oil. Therefore, particulate emissions could be transferred from highways to airways and to communities which use No 2 fuel oil for heating. |
