Full Description

This document explains the requirements and test methods for paraffinic diesel fuel from synthesis orhydrotreatment containing up to 7,0 % (V/V) Fatty Acid Methyl Ester (FAME). Synthesis refers to XTLprocesses where X refers to various feedstocks for example Gas (G), Biomass (B) or Coal (C) and TL stands for To-Liquid. In this document the term hydrotreatment includes all catalytic processes where hydrogen is used. Hydrotreatment of oils and fats from plant, animal or any other biological origin yield paraffinic diesel fuel for example Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO) or Hydroprocessed Esters and Fatty Acids (HEFA). Paraffinic diesel fuel can be blended with up to 7,0 % (V/V) fatty acid methyl ester (FAME). This document provides background information to the final text of EN 15940:2023 [1] and gives guidance and explanations to the producers, blenders, marketers and users of paraffinic automotive diesel fuel.
