SULFUR TOLERANT VEHICLE SYSTEMS AND NOVEL METHODS FOR LOW SULFUR GASOLINE PRODUCTION
(CRC Project No. E-7)
Objective: To determine how light-duty, low emission vehicle systems can be designed to meet the existing TLEV, LEV, andd ULEV emission standards with fuel sulfur levels higher than California fuels; explore tradeoffs between emission control technology and fuel sulfur level; and identify novel methods for producing low-sulfur gasoline that would have lower manufacturing costs and better cost-effectiveness than current refining technology.
