It is also suitable for use in non-automotive application, especially in conditions of varying speed and load. 6.4 Minimum ambient temperatures.

30、 Tenth percentile minimum ambient temperatures for locations within the United States are provided in Appendix X4 of ASTM D 975 and may be used as a means of estimating expected regional temperatures. 6.5 Limitations for B20 usage. 6.5.1 Vehicles and equipment. B20 has not been approved for use in A

31、rmy combat and tactical vehicles and equipment at this time. The different types of engine systems and engine compartment configurations, modes of operation, environmental conditions, storage stability concerns (see 6.5.2), solvency effects (see 6.6), and fuel interchangeability issues associated wi

32、th the single fuel forward policy will necessitate field testing to fully validate the use of B20 in combat and tactical vehicles and equipment. 6.5.2 Storage life. Available data indicates that the B20 in vehicles or storage tanks should be used within six months of manufacture. Fuels that have an

33、acid number equal to or over 0.3 mg KOH/g are not recommended for use. 6.6 Solvency properties of biodiesel. Biodiesel (B100) is a good solvent. Use of B20 may clean the fueling system of existing deposits. Users should be prepared to change fuel filters more frequently upon initial use. 6.7 Viscosi

34、ty and distillation properties of B20 blended with Grade No. 1-D diesel fuel oil. The user must be aware that B20 using Grade Low Sulfur No. 1-D diesel fuel oil as base fuel may exceed the maximum viscosity and the maximum 90% recovered temperature requirements for Grade Low Sulfur No. 1-D diesel fu

The generation of static electricity can create problems in the handling of distillate fuel oils with which biodiesel may be blended. For more information on the subject, see AST

36、M D 4865. 6.9 Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM) biodiesel allowances. The impact of biodiesel use on warranty coverage, which varies by vehicle/engine manufacturers, has been checked. Major engine manufacturers have all issued statements regarding the use of biodiesel as it pertains to their wa

37、rranty coverage. Copies of any of these statements can be obtained from the National Biodiesel Board (NBB) by calling (800) 841-5849 or faxing (573) 635-7913, or via the NBB website at http:/www.biodiesel.org/ 6.10 Benefits of using biodiesel. The Energy Conservation Reauthorization Act (ECRA) of 19

38、98, an amendment to the Energy Policy Act (EPACT) of 1992, permits Federal Agencies to use biodiesel to meet a portion of their alternative fueled vehicle (AFV) acquisition requirements. Section 312 (Biodiesel Fuel Use Credits) of ECRA permits Federal Agencies to Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo repr

39、oduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-A-A-59693A 6 meet up to 50% of their AFV acquisition requirements by using biodiesel fuel. Under the new provisions, each 450 gallons of pure biodiesel (B100) used in a vehicle weighing over 8500 pounds counts as one full AFV credit. Sinc

40、e biodiesel is typically used as B20, using 2250 gallons of B20 equates to one AFV credit under EPACT. 6.11 Key words.

41、APPENDIX A 7 VOLUME PERCENT BIODIESEL DETERMINATION IN A BIODIESEL BLEND BY GAS CHROMATOGRAPHY 1. Scope 1.1 This method covers the determination of biodiesel volume percent (throughout the test method volume percent is represented as %) in a blend of diesel fuel and biodiesel. The test method is app

42、licable to fuel blends having 0 to 30% biodiesel. This method is not dependant on the type of biodiesel feedstock or the grade of diesel fuel used in the biodiesel blends. 1.2 This test method does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsi

43、bility of the user of this method to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. 2. Summary of Test Method 2.1 A fuel sample is injected into a non-polar gas chromatographic column and run at specific conditions. The compo

44、nents of the biodiesel blend elute in boiling point order, with the biodiesel being the heaviest component. The initial column temperature is started high to elute the petroleum diesel quickly. Once the petroleum diesel has been eluted, the column temperature is raised to get good separation of the

45、biodiesel components. A calibration curve is obtained under the same chromatographic conditions using known blends of biodiesel/petroleum diesel ranging from 0 to 30% biodiesel. 3. Significance and Use 3.1 This test method is useful in determining whether a fuel contains biodiesel and what volume pe

46、rcent of the blend is biodiesel. This method does not give any insight into the composition of the biodiesel feedstocks or of the grade of petroleum diesel used in the blend. This test method can be used for product specification testing of B20 fuel samples. 4. Apparatus 4.1 Gas Chromatograph. The g

47、as chromatograph used must have the following performance characteristics: 4.1.1 Detector. A flame ionization detector (FID) capable of operating at 300C and be capable of the connection of a megabore capillary column. 4.1.2 Column Temperature Programmer The gas chromatograph must be capable of prog

48、rammed temperature operation.

49、.4 Flow Controllers The gas chromatograph must be equipped with mass flow controllers capable of maintaining the carrier gas flow constant to 1% over the full operating temperature range of the column. 4.1.5 Microsyringe A microsyringe capable of 0.1microliter (L) volumes is needed for sample introduction. 4.2 Column 5 meters (m) 0.53 millimeters (mm) 2.65 micrometer (m) HP-1, Agilent Technologies, Par
