Overview: The California Energy Commission and the Clean Air Vehicle Technology Center conducted a test program to identify how alternative fuels and after-treatment devices affect particulate matter, nitrogen oxides (NOX), and total hydrocarbons emissions in heavy-duty vehicles. This project evaluated five fuels; including Arco's ECD-1 Diesel (also known as ultra-low sulfur diesel), Lubrizol's Purinox, and three Fischer-Tropsch Diesel (FTD) fuels. In addition, the project looked at particulate matter and NOX-control technologies; including diesel soot filters from Johnson-Matthey, Engelhard, and Cleaire; oxidation catalysts from Johnson- Matthey, Engelhard, Cleaire, and Lubrizol's Engine Control System (ECS); and engine recalibration.
