Abstract |
This is Appendices A through D of Collaborative Lubricating Oil Study on Emissions (CLOSE) project. The Collaborative Lubricating Oil Study on Emissions (CLOSE) project was a pilot program to investigate methodologies to indicate how fuels and crankcase lubricants contribute to the formation of particulate matter (PM) and semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOC) in vehicle exhaust. It was conducted with a very limited number of vehicles, some of which did not have the latest engine and emission system technology, and no vehicles in this study were equipped with particle traps. The results of this study are not representative of the whole fleet of on-road vehicles. Long term lubricant effects on engine and aftertreatment were not investigated in this study. |
