Automotive fuels - Paraffinic diesel from synthesis or hydrotreatment - Requirements and test methods

Scope

This CEN Workshop Agreement specifies requirements and test methods for marketed and delivered
paraffinic diesel fuel. It is applicable to paraffinic diesel fuel from synthesis or hydrotreatment processes for
use in diesel engine vehicles designed to run on automotive diesel fuel. The document describes the quality
for use as automotive fuel for diesel engines at 100 % concentration.
NOTE 1 For general diesel engine warranty, paraffinic automotive diesel fuel may need a validation step, which for
some existing engines may still need to be done (see also the Introduction to this document).
NOTE 2 For the purposes of this document, the terms “% (m/m)” and “% (V/V)” are used to represent respectively the
mass fraction and the volume fraction.
