Ranking Shows Continued Global Reductions
in Diesel Sulfur Limits
PR Newswire
HOUSTON, May 30, 2012
- Sweden, Germany, Japan lead IFQC's Top 100
HOUSTON
,
May 30, 2012
/PRNewswire/ -- The International Fuel Quality Center
(IFQC) has ranked the Top 100 countries based on sulfur limits in on-road diesel
and found that 44 countries can now boast that their on-road diesel fuel is the
cleanest in the world.
"Sulfur reduction remains essential and unique, as it is the only component of
the refining process for petroleum fuels that lowers all airborne pollutants from
the transport sector. This is why there is added pressure and a movement to
reduce sulfur limits in other categories, like marine fuels," according to Liisa
Kiuru-Griffith, executive director, IFQC.
Armenia
and
New Caledonia
joined the select group atop IFQC's annual ranking
by completing their nationwide transitions to diesel fuel with sulfur content of
10 ppm. The top 47 countries share a maximum sulfur limit of 15 ppm or less
with varying implementation timelines.
Six countries advanced in the 2012 list, led by
Ecuador
, which joined the Top
100 by lowering its maximum sulfur limit from 7,000 ppm to 500 ppm and
moving up 47 spots to No. 83.
Saudi Arabia
joined
Ecuador
at No. 83 by rising
23 spots. Its maximum diesel sulfur content was lowered from 800 ppm to 500
ppm.
"With distillates experiencing the largest growth among all petroleum products
globally, it makes it even more challenging to achieve such strict quality
requirements," said Kristine Klavers, senior vice president, Hart Energy. "All of
us at IFQC extend hearty congratulations to global governments, automakers,
refiners, and technology suppliers — all who contributed equally to one of the
world's great environmental success stories."
IFQC's analysts based the rankings on maximum allowable limits in national
standards and year of implementation. The complete list can be found at
