Automotive fuels - Fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) fuel and blends with diesel fuel - Determination of oxidation stability by accelerated oxidation method
This European Standard specifies a test method for the determination of the oxidation stability of fuels for diesel engines, by means of measuring the induction period of the fuel up to 48 h. The method is applicable to fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) intended for the use as pure biofuel or as a blending component for diesel fuels, and to blends of FAME with diesel fuel containing 2 % (V/V) of FAME at minimum.
NOTE 1 EN 14112 [1] describes a similar test method for oxidation stability determination of pure fatty acid methyl esters (see the Introduction to this European Standard).
NOTE 2 For induction periods higher than 48 h the precision is not covered by the precision statement of this method. The limit values of the relevant fuel standards are well within the scope of this test method.
NOTE 3 The presence of cetane improver can reduce the oxidation stability determined by this test method. Limited studies with EHN (2-ethyl hexyl nitrate) indicated, however, that the stability is reduced to an extent which is within the reproducibility of the test method.
NOTE 4 For the purposes of this European Standard, the term "% (V/V)" is used to represent the volume fraction (φ) of a material.

Introduction This document is based on EN 14112 [1], which was specifically adapted for the determination of oxidation stability of fatty acid methyl esters (FAME). This method had been developed under CEN/TC 307 (Fats and oils). At the time of development the method was applicable for FAME fuel according to EN 14214 [2], but questions remained on the accuracy towards blends of FAME and diesel fuel. The modifications to EN 14112 as given in this document, allow application of this test method for oxidation stability for pure FAME and diesel/FAME blends at various levels. The goal was to have one single test method for FAME fuel, diesel/FAME blends and pure diesel fuels. Although the modifications cover FAME fuel and diesel/FAME blends, CEN/TC 307 decided that it was better to retain EN 14112 for methyl esters and publish a separate standard for all automotive fuel and heating oil applications, as the use of 'diesel and diesel blends' falls out the scope of CEN/TC 307. While developing the fuels specification for paraffinic diesel fuel, three labs executed a small test on neat fuel and on 7 % (V/V) FAME blend based on product originating from both Fischer-Tropsch synthesis and hydrotreatment process. No indications towards a different interaction with the methodology of this document were found, so it was concluded that the stability of these paraffinic diesel fuels can be determined with the test method described in this document. The stability of these products usually is that high that the results do not match the scope of this European Standard. The modifications required a new validation covering pure FAME, diesel/FAME blends and pure diesel fuels which resulted in the fact that the method is not suitable for pure petroleum-based diesel fuels.

Furthermore, the standard acknowledges the existence of similar methodologies, such as EN 14112, which can provide additional context to users familiar with other oxidation stability determination protocols. This interconnectivity among various standards enhances the relevance of EN 15751:2014 as a foundational document for evaluating fuel quality. Additionally, the standard's provisions regarding the potential effects of cetane improvers on oxidation stability demonstrate a thorough understanding of the complexities involved in fuel formulation. This aspect is crucial as it indicates the standard’s adaptability to various fuel compositions, providing clarity on how additives might influence stability results. By expressly detailing the limits of the method regarding precision for periods exceeding 48 hours, the standard sets realistic expectations for users, thereby enhancing its practicality in real-world applications. In summary, EN 15751:2014 serves as a significant reference for the automotive fuels industry, underpinning the importance of oxidation stability in maintaining the efficiency and reliability of diesel engines.
