33、automotive fuel Multidimensional gas chromatography method (ISO 22854)3 SummaryThe European Commission is promoting the increased use of renewable energy and, as part of this policy, is encouraging the use of ethanol as a blend component with gasoline.For ethanol itself, a European Standard, EN 1537
34、6, was published in 2011, and this was developed further into a standard for ethanol suitable for blending at all levels up to 85 % in gasoline (2014 publication).For ethanol (E85) automotive fuel, the standardization activity began with the creation of a CEN Workshop Agreement (CWA). This was devel
35、oped subsequently by the Task Force (E85) into a CEN Technical Specification, positively balloted by the end of 2010 (CEN/TS 15293).The Ethanol Fuel Task Force (EFTF) was formed by CEN in 2011, and combined the activities of TF E85 and the existing Ethanol Task Force. EFTF was mandated to develop th
36、e Technical Specification for E85 into a full European Standard.The test methods have been examined by the experts in the task forces to ensure their applicability to E85 fuel and to determine if their precision is sufficient to support the limit values proposed. This 5PD CEN/TR 15993:2018CEN/TR 159
37、93:2018 (E)activity was supported by work in several other CEN working groups where the specialists in particular methods are present.All parameters were reviewed in terms of their need to be in the specification, and their limit values re-assessed to fit with current needs. Parameters have been add
38、ed or removed accordingly. Improved methods have been developed, and some discontinued that did not meet the precision requirements.Automotive ethanol (E85) automotive fuel is constituted from a mixture of ethanol complying to EN 15376 and of regular market petrol product. The latter either complies
39、 to EN 228 or is a Blending Oxygenate Base-stock (BOB) that fulfils EN 228 after addition of ethanol. The need for a particular parameter to be part of the E85 specification has taken account of those parameters in the ethanol and gasoline specifications.This document is the report on the technical
40、work to date carried out by the TF E85 (see 5.1) and subsequently the EFTF (see 5.2) towards establishing a European Standard for ethanol (E85) automotive fuel.4 Historical contextThe European Commission is following a policy of promoting renewable energy use in Europe, and to this end is encouragin
41、g the extension of automotive gasoline fuel with a proportion of renewably-sourced ethyl alcohol (referred to in this document as ethanol).In order to facilitate a transparent and stable market in ethanol, it is necessary to establish an ethanol (E85) automotive fuel standard for Europe that will en
42、sure a uniform high quality fuel for problem-free use as a gasoline fuel for FFV engines.In anticipation of a mandate from the Commission, in 2007 the Comit Europen de Normalization (CEN) Technical Committee 19, responsible for Automotive Fuels Standards, accepted the CEN Workshop Agreement (CWA) re
43、vision as a work item on its programme to be developed in Working Group 21, responsible for Automotive Gasoline management.The intention of CEN/TC 19 was to develop CWA 15293 through to a European Standard, based on the publication of EN 15376 for ethanol and EN 228 for gasoline, also taking into ac
44、count the developments in Sweden, France and Germany. Discussion in WG 21 had indicated that there were still test method questions to be solved and thus national initiatives were not halted.Initial planning was for enquiry text to be ready in August 2008, and the final text to be delivered in Novem
45、ber 2009. WG 21 had advised the use of EN 228 as the blending component and had supported a six month extension allowance for the E85 specification for the necessary updating of test methods and seasonal grades. prEN 15293 was published for ballot in May 2009.The TF 85, however, had encountered seve
46、ral open issues due to the uncertainty of octane guarantee in the future with the integration of Blending Oxygenate Base-stock (BOB) in all European markets and its impact on ethanol (E85) automotive fuels. In addition, the test methods precision for chlorine content at 1 mg/kg or below and the high
47、-boiler requirement, had been under evaluation. Further time was required to collect data on the current market, resulting in a better specification proposal. At the end of 2009, TF 85 still planned to aim at a submission for formal vote halfway through 2010. After the CEN enquiry, considering the t
48、echnical comments and the suggested necessary updates, the deliverable on prEN 15293 had been changed into a CEN Technical Specification with its submission to CEN/CCMC in March 2010.CEN/TS 15293 was ratified by CEN on 28th September 2010 and was published as CEN/TS 15293:2011.The EFTF was formed in
49、 2011 at the request of WG 21, and combined the work programmes on ethanol and on E85. The mandate from WG 21 was:a) to revise the Ethanol standard EN 15376 to be applicable to ethanol for blending at all levels up to and including 85 %6 PD CEN/TR 15993:2018CEN/TR 15993:2018 (E)b) to develop the CEN Technical Specification CEN/TS 15293 to a full European standardThe Ethanol European standard was duly revised and published as EN 15376:2014.For E85, work within th
