Overview
EN 16734:2016/prA1:2017 - Automotive fuels - Automotive B10 diesel fuel - Requirements and test methods - is a CEN European standard that specifies quality requirements and laboratory test methods for marketed and delivered automotive B10 diesel fuel. B10 diesel is conventional diesel blended with up to 10.0 % (V/V) Fatty Acid Methyl Ester (FAME). The standard covers composition limits, test procedures, pump marking and climate-related provisions for diesel engines compatible with B10 blends. Note: B10 is permitted in Europe but national legislation can impose additional restrictions.
Key topics and technical requirements
- Scope and definitions: Clarifies use of % (m/m) and % (V/V) for mass and volume fractions and defines automotive B10 fuel composition (≤10.0 % FAME).
- Quality parameters and test methods: Tabled requirements include cetane number, density, water content, polychromatic hydrocarbon content and others with referenced test standards.
- Test method updates: Amendment adds EN 16906 as an additional procedure for cetane number determination and updates references to modern EN/ISO methods (e.g., EN ISO 2719, EN ISO 12185).
- Pump marking and consumer information: Pump/nozzle identification and marking requirements are aligned with EN 16942 and EU fuel infrastructure directives to ensure vehicle compatibility is clearly communicated at dispensing points.
- Additives and restricted substances: Methylcyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl (MMT) use requires specific labeling and is limited via a manganese-content limit defined in the standard’s tables.
- Climate-related provisions: Additional requirements and test methods for arctic or severe winter climates are included to ensure cold-flow performance and operability.
- Precision and dispute resolution: Laboratory precision data and dispute procedures are updated (density testing disputes referenced to EN ISO 12185).
Applications and who uses this standard
EN 16734:2016/prA1:2017 is used by:
- Fuel producers and blenders for formulation and quality control of B10 diesel.
- Fuel distributors and retailers to ensure marketed product compliance and correct pump labeling.
- Test laboratories for accredited sampling and analytical testing against specified EN/ISO methods.
- Vehicle manufacturers and fleet operators assessing fuel compatibility for diesel engines.
- Regulators and infrastructure managers implementing fuel quality rules and consumer information requirements.
Practical uses include blend specification, production quality assurance, acceptance testing, dispute resolution between supplier and buyer, and ensuring safe, reliable operation in different climates.
