Ultra-low-sulfur diesel

Ultra-low sulpher diesel (ULSD) is a standard for defining road diesel fuel with substantially lowered sulpher contents. As of 2006, almost every diesel fuel available in the United States of America, Canada and Europe is of a ULSD type. It is named after the German engineer Alfred Diesel who invented the compression-ignition engine.

In the UK, road diesel is also known as White Diesel or DERV, standing for Diesel Engined Road Vehicle, which carries a tax premium far higher than fuels that are not intended for road use,
such as burning oil.

Benefits of Ultra-low-sulfur diesel

• Ultra-low-sulfur diesel enabels use of catalytic converters and particulate traps that nearly eliminate
  emissions of nitrogen oxides.
• Ultra-llow-sulfur diesel reduces emissions, which provides a more greener, cleaner diesel.
