Components of Diesel Engine Emissions (DEE)
DEE consist of a complex mixture of compounds. Several can be hazardous to human health:
• Carbon monoxide (CO) • Carbon dioxide (CO2) • Sulfur dioxide (SO2) • Nitrogen oxides (NOX) • Hydrocarbons (HC), thereof ca. 2-5% • Polycyclic aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAH) • Particles
Source: HEI 1995
Workshop on Sprays and Biodiesel, Brunel University, 21.11. 2013
Carcinogenicity of DEE
Diesel engine emissions (DEE) are considered to be carcinogenic on the basis of numerous scientific data:
1. Strong mutagenicity of particle extracts of DEE in the Ames-test (Huisingh et al. 1978)
2. Lung tumors in rats after inhalation of DEE (Heinrich et al. 1986)
3. Increased lung cancer risk in occupationally DEE-exposed subjects (IARC 2012)
“In conclusion, the Working Group classified diesel engine exhaust as “carcinogenic to humans” (Group 1).”

Conclusions
• Mutagenicity of DEE was lowered to non significant levels in the last 20 years using the Ames test.
• Regulated components do not indicate health effects from diesel engines.
• Independent fuel research is needed for a sound and reliable consumer and worker protection.
