1 II International Symposium on Fuels, biofuels and additives World-wide Fuel Charter Biofuel Guidelines June 25, 2009 Ryuichiro KAMIOKA (TOYOTA DO BRASIL LTDA) on behalf of Japan Automobile Manufacturers Association

2 World-wide Fuel Charter Committee National organizations: Brazil (ANFAVEA) Canada (AIAMC, CVMA) China (CAAM) Europe (ACEA) India (SIAM) Indonesia (IAF) Japan (JAMA) Korea (KAMA) Malaysia (MAA) Mexico (AMIA) Philippines (CAMPI) South Africa (NAAMSA) Thailand (TAIA) USA (Alliance, AIAM, EMA) Vietnam (VAMA) Supporting: International (OICA)

3 Background Use of bio-components in market fuels are increasing around the world Ethanol (and ETBE) in gasolines Fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) in diesel fuels The standards for these bio-components can be highly variable and not always fit for purpose National/regional standards & specifications Dependent on type and quality of feedstock Dependent on processing route The automotive industry is global Need for increased international harmonization of market fuels, including bio-components Bio-components can be inherently feedstock dependent (ex. vegetable oils), this represents additional challenges to the specification setting

4 Background World-wide Fuel Charter (WWFC) The Automotive industry s guiding document towards improved and harmonized market fuel quality (gasoline and diesel fuel) 4th edition from Sept. 2006, work commencing for next revision Gasoline and diesel fuel quality in four quality levels (Category 1,2,3,4) to match emissions requirements (up to Euro 5/US10 or equivalent) Not specifically dealing with alternative fuels WWFC can be downloaded from

5 Background World-wide Fuel Charter (WWFC) Bio-components mentioned as part of the WWFC gasoline and diesel fuel specifications: Ethanol in gasoline: max 5% in all Category 1,2,3,4 (max 10% where pre-existing regulation allow) FAME in diesel fuel: max 5% in Category 1,2,3, FAME not allowed in Category 4 at the moment WWFC Committee concluded that more uniform definition of ethanol and FAME quality is needed Decision was take to develop Biofuel Guidelines E100 for blending in gasoline up to 10% (E10) B100 (FAME) for blending in diesel up to 5% (B5) For defining the quality of the final fuel blends: Biofuel Guidelines supplement Category 1,2,3,4 requirements

6 Target Audience Biofuel producers, Fuel distributors, Legislators, End-users E100 and B100 specifications for E10 and B5 blends Performance based requirements Control of impurities is an essential part of both specifications Feedstock neutral Test methods, including alternative methods when available Good management practices World-wide Fuel Charter still applies to retail gasoline & diesel fuel quality Fuel supplier is responsible for final product quality

7 JAMA s Position on Biofuels From view point of energy security & CO 2 reduction, biofuels become more important JAMA positively corresponds to introduction of biofuels from view point of technical perspective for our customers JAMA actively participate and support WWFC activity in order to; secure biofuels quality, hence improve automotive fuel quality in the market for cleaner air prevent problems for the benefit of end users

8 Roadmap of Guideline Making Draft for comments was issued in july, 2008 Posted at the Committee member web-sites Comment Submission: by October 1, 2008 Total 17 commenters from US, Europe & Asia Including comments from ARPEL WWFC Committee meeting: on October 7, 2008 to review comments Finalization: March, 2009 Posted at the Committee member web-sites w/ Feedback document to the comments

19 Some Technical Issues & Parameters B100 Guidelines Methyl ester (FAME) purity Low level of methyl ester indicates high levels of unreacted materials or contaminations with non-fame products Specific limits for linolenic acid methyl ester and poly-unsaturated acid methyl ester (>/= 4 double bonds) Oxidation stability One of the most important properties, oxidation products can disturb functioning of engine/vehicle and even create hardware damage Risk of formation of gums, sludge and other insoluble compounds Iodine number Indicates total of double bonds (level of unsaturation) Can provide information about fuel s tendency to form sludge, affect lubricant quality and/or cause corrosion Glycerides, glycerol (total and free) Cause filter plugging (especially at cold temperatures) and injector/engine deposits

20 Some Technical Issues & Parameters B100 Guidelines (cont d) Ash Measure of amount of metals and other inorganic contaminants in the fuel Ash content is linked to fuel injector deposits and PM filter plugging (non generable) Phosphorous, sulfur Catalyst poison, will cause increased exhaust emissions Alkali (Na, K) and alkaline (Ca, Mg) metals KOH, NaOH are process chemical, should not present in final product Can form deposits in injection systems and poison emission control systems, Ca soaps can cause injectors to stick Good house-keeping practices CEN technical report CEN/TR15367 gives good handling guidance Labeling Guidelines for up to B5 blend only, clear labeling is required

21 Contributions from Biofuel Guidelines to International Standardisation Guide the further process of internationally compatible biofuel standards, so called Tripartite activity (EU, USA, Brazil) White paper issued on December 31, 2007 Activities are starting again through International biofuels standardisation conference in Brussels, March 2009 Focus for the next step: harmonization of test methods Guide the work on ISO/TC28/SC7 Liquid Biofuels First meeting was held in Brazil, January 2009 Scope: very much same as for the Tripartite cooperation Guideline to the any national standardization work in the field of biofuel specifications Demonstrates need for compatibility between fuel standards (including bio-components) and engine technology

22 Request from JAMA Auto industries strongly recommend WWFC for national standardization. Especially properties of bio diesel (FAME) are quite different from fossil derived diesel fuel adequate spec. & quality control at pump is essential; Most important; Oxidation stability (min 10hr) Also need to pay attention to sludge formation Metals should be eliminated to minimize impact on advanced E/G and emission control system Our goal is global fuel spec. harmonization Top priority should be given to end users In-use vehicles must be considered Discussion should be based on technical data
