Worldwide sulfur content of commercially available diesel fuels - Detailed classification - BB00.40-P-0136-02A

BB00.40-P-0136-02A  Worldwide sulfur content of commercially available diesel fuels - Detailed classification in ppm sheet 136.2
Rough classification in % by weight BB00.40-P-0136-01A

(1) European diesel
(2) To some extent there is still no complete conversion to < 10 ppm as per EN590 at the beginning of 2010

The specified country-specific sulfur bandwidths only apply to the point in time when they were surveyed between summer 2007 and winter 2009/2010. It must be assumed that there will be a reduction in sulfur content in the future, not an increase.

Countries with multiple classifications offer different fuel grades at the same time.
