They found that total particulate gravimetric mass collected over the engine test cycle was more than 2 times higher for B0 than for B20 fuel. Particle number distributions aggregated over one example drive cycle indicate a unimodal B0 distribution centered at 51 nm, but a B20 distribution with a smaller diameter mode at 32.2

However, the relative toxicity of biodiesel emissions compared to petroleum diesel remains unclear. Error bars are one standard deviation from the mean, letters indicate statistical similarity. nmol/min/mg PM for B0 and B100, respectively, and from 22.6 ± 4.5 PM-normalized DTT Activity for biodiesel exhaust PM.

A team at the University of Birmingham reports that a blend of 33% v/v of butanol in EN228 commercial gasoline containing 5% of ethanol (B33) reduces GDI (gasoline direct injection) engine-out carbonaceous emissions, while maintaining similar levels of NO x emissions when compared to standard gasoline combustion at low and medium engine loads.
