Alternative biofuels for compression ignition engines. Influence of fuel on emissions and health.
This project provides new information for Finnish diesel fuel producers and manufacturers of emission after-treatment systems about the risks and benefits associated with their products. The emphasis is on comparative assessment of the effects of different fuels, such as conventional diesel and different biodiesels, and after-treatment systems on the emissions from a diesel engine.

Chemical composition and health risks of emissions from a diesel engine operating on biodiesel
The aim of this project is to add a toxicological component to the Biodiesel: emissions project. This projects comprises a comparison of the toxicity of emissions from diesel engines operating on different conventional and biofuels, and estimation of the net health effect of the observed variations in the diesel particulate matter emissions in the urban environment.
