  text: Due to the fact that modern diesel engines require very well-defined fuel
    properties to ensure high efficiency, low emissions and a long durability, the
    fuel properties and their determination methods have to be standardized. Most
    diesel fuel standards allow a certain volume fraction of biodiesel that can be
    blended to fossil diesel fuel. Biodiesel consists of saturated and unsaturated
    fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) which are more susceptible to oxidation compared
    to fossil diesel fuel. Oxidation products formed by autoxidative processes can
    lead to higher emissions, a higher corrosiveness, fuel filter blocking, clogging
    of fuel injectors, the formation of deposits in the entire fuel system and a decreasing
    lubricity [1]. Therefore, oxidation needs to be prevented by the addition of oxidation
    inhibitors. These antioxidants are consumed during storage, resulting in partial
    loss of their efficiency against oxidative stress. After this induction period
    all antioxidants have been consumed and harmful oxidation products can be formed.
    For the determination of the long-term storage stability of diesel fuels rapid
    oxidation stability test methods were developed and defined by standards. In Europe,
    the most important determination methods are the Rancimat method and the rapid
    small scale oxidation test (RSSOT). Both methods differ in the construction of
    the measurement device and various parameters. However, it is not clear whether
    the results of both methods can be correlated in general. Due to the importance
    of the oxidation stability, we here describe the results of a literature research
    that was carried out using 17 literature sources. Possible correlation factors
    between the Rancimat and the RSSOT method were analyzed, showing that a universal
    correlation cannot be found. In contrast, a comparison of individual series of
    measurement, e.g. with the same antioxidant at various concentrations, can show
    a good correlation between the methods.

  text: The need for new bio based drop-in components for combustion engine fuels
    and the availability of sustainable glycerol from biodiesel production has focused
    attention on isopropylidene glycerol (solketal). The present study investigates
    the physical and chemical behavior of solketal in ternary blends with diesel fuel/biodiesel.
    Hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO) was used as renewable non-polar aliphatic diesel
    fuel substitute in biodiesel/ solketal blends. HVO can be considered a prototype
    for other non-polar fuel components such as paraffinic fuel streams from Fischer-Tropsch
    or BtL processes. Surface tension, permittivity and aging behavior were analyzed.
    Furthermore, the cetane number (CN) and the viscosity was determined. Permittivity
    reflects the polarity of blends and their components with its change being an
    indicator of loss of physical and chemical stability. The antioxidant triphenyl
    phosphorothioate (TPPT) was also tested in some blends. The biodiesel blends B20,
    B30 and B40 enables single phased diesel fuel or HVO with varied solketal content
    (2 and 10%) at a constant biodiesel amount. No effect of solketal on fuel aging
    was observed. However, HVO-containing blends tend to lower the thermo-chemical
    stability relative to diesel fuel.
