Change in Exhaust Regulation Standard & Fuel Quality sulfur content of diesel fuel PM (Diesel-Powered Heavy-Duty Vehicles) 12,000ppm Reduction Rate(%) 5,000ppm(1976-) 2,000ppm(1992-) 500ppm(1997-) 10ppm (2007-) 50ppm (2005-) 5

Promotion of the use of appropriate fuel ・ Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport developed the portable sulfur density analyzer and inspect diesel fuel quality(sulfer) on the street from 2005. → Sulfur: more than 50ppm → Notice → Sulfur: more than 200ppm → Ordinance ＊ Regulation:50ppm max Spot inspection on the street Portable sulfur density analyzer 6

System for Fuel Quality Control Air Pollution Control Law （ Ministry of the Environment ） Establishment of permissible limits on the automotive fuel quality In consideration of permissible limits on the automotive fuel quality ○ Road Vehicle Act ○ Law of the Quality Control of （ Ministry of Land, Gasoline and Other Fuels Infrastructure and Transport ） （ Ministry of Economic,Trade and Industry ） Establishment of commercial Establishment of reference fuel quality regulation. fuel quality for emission test 7

Commercial fuel quality regulation in Japan (Diesel Fuel) Sulfur 10 Wt-ppm or less Cetane number 45 or more Distillation properties 633K （ 360 ℃） or less 90% distillation temperature Triglyceride 0.01 vol% or less FAME 5 vol% or less Methanol 0.01 vol% or less Total acid number 0.13mgKOH/g or less When FAME Total of Formic, was blended Acetic and 0.003 vol% or less Propionic acids Oxi. Stability 0.12 mgKOH/g or less (Acid) Increase 8

Commercial fuel quality regulation in Japan (Gasoline) Lead Not to be detected 50 wt-ppm or less Sulfur 10 wt-ppm or less (from 2008) MTBE 7.0 vol% or less Benzene 1.0 vol% or less Kerosene 4.0 vol% or less Methanol Not to be detected Existent gum 5 mg/100 mL or less Color orange Oxygen concentration 1.3 wt% or less Ethanol 3.0 vol% or less 9
