• Aerosols Emitted in Underground Mine Air by Diesel Engine Fueled with Biodiesel
  2/1/2010 - Peer reviewed journal articles
  The results of this study provide more insight into potential advantages and disadvantages of using biodiesel fuels for controlling emissions of aerosols and gases. Using diesel oxidation catalysts to control biodiesel emissions was re-examined.
• Effectiveness of Selected Diesel Particulate Matter Control Technologies for Underground Mining Applications: Isolated Zone Study, 2003
  5/1/2006 - Reports of Investigations
  An underground metal mine study assessed the effects of diesel emissions control technologies (such as DPF systems, diesel oxidation catalytic converter, and biodiesel blends) on concentrations of diesel particulate matter and gases in mine air.
• Effects of FAME Biodiesel and HVORD on Emissions from an Older Technology Diesel Engine
  12/1/2017 - Peer reviewed journal articles
  A paper comparing the potential of FAME biodiesel and HVORD as a control strategy to reduce the exposure of underground miners to aerosols and gases emitted by diesel-powered equipment.
• Aerosols and Criteria Gases in an Underground Mine That Uses FAME Biodiesel Blends
  10/1/2014 - Peer reviewed journal articles
  A study assessing heavy-duty haulage trucks' contribution to the concentrations of aerosols and criteria gases in underground mine air and the physical properties of those aerosols for three FAME biodiesel blends.
• Biodiesel Versus Diesel Exposure: Enhanced Pulmonary Inflammation, Oxidative Stress, and Differential Morphological Changes in the Mouse Lung
  10/1/2013 - Peer reviewed journal articles
  A study to compare the effects of particles generated by engine fueled with neat biodiesel and neat petroleum-based diesel.
• Mutagenicity of Biodiesel or Diesel Exhaust Particles and the Effect of Engine Operating Conditions
  3/1/2013 - Peer reviewed journal articles
  A study of the mutagenic potential of diesel emissions from neat and blended soy-based fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) biodiesel compared to ULSD PM using different engine operating conditions and exhaust aftertreatment configurations.
• Strategies to Reduce Miners Exposure to DPM and Gases (Reno)
  1/22/2013 - Conferences, workshops, and seminars
  Workshop on Practical Strategies and Technologies to Reduce Miners Exposure to Diesel Particulate Matter and Gases sponsored by the Nevada Mining Association, NIOSH, and the Mine Safety and Health Administration
