Objective
In order to assure customer acceptance standardisation and quality assurance is the key factor to the market introduction of bio diesel as a transport and heating fuel. In 1997 the European Commission inundated CEN to develop standards concerning minimum requirements and test methods of bio diesel. Working groups have achieved substantial progress. It was turned out, however, that in one complex key par-ammeter, fuel stability, detailed research is absolutely needed. It is proposed to investigate all relevant topics to overcome this gap of knowledge. Suitable deter-monition methods for the oxidation, thermal and storage stability will be worked out. The influence of storage conditions on the fuel quality properties and the effects of natural and synthetic antioxidants will be investigated. A comprehensive test programme including bench and field tests will be carried out in order to find a relationship between the stability and special effects during use.
