When faced with the question of how to fix emission test failure with diesel vehicles you can use a polyether amine detergent fuel additive, have the DPF cleaned or just use HVO fuel instead of normal fossil diesel.

How to fix emission test failure

Normal diesel fuel is derived by thermo-cracking and refining of crude oil whereas fossil-free hydrotreated vegetable oil fuel is made from 100% waste cooking oil and fats.

Being a synthetic fuel, HVO burns far cleaner than normal diesel yielding between 40% and 80% less particulate matter air pollution and has a higher cetane number for improved combustion. Thus, this low emissions fossil-free fuel sorts the test failure at source – in the cylinders relieving the exhaust treatment and reducing the use of AdBlue.

Increasingly, HVO is being made in the UK now at sites that used to be 100% conventional refineries.

The net green house gas emissions from burning HVO are reduced by up to 90% without any need to alter fuel tanks or engine. This rewable diesel does not suffer from the tendency of FAME biodiesel to grow algae if it is stored for a long time; in fact, you can store it for upto 10 years.

Use it easily in cold weather down to minus 25 degrees Celsius; there are also some exciting developments with similar fuels for aircraft. In the context of road vehicles, HVO also reduces usage of AdBlue by up to 20%.
