Abstract: The effect of biofuel use on the operation of Diesel Exhaust Aftertreatment System is investigated both numerically and experimentally, by focusing on the contribution of three main factors: raw PM–NOx emissions trade-off, NO–NO2 conversion efficiency of the Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC) and PM reactivity toward oxidation.
