Abstract

27

Particle emissions from a modern turbocharged GDI passenger car equipped with a three-way

28

catalyst and an exhaust gas recirculation system were studied while the vehicle was running on

29

low-sulfur gasoline and, consecutively, with five different lubrication oils. Exhaust particle

30

number concentration, size distribution and volatility were determined both at laboratory and on-

31

road conditions. The results indicated that the choice of lubricant affected particle emissions both

32

during the cold start and warm driving cycles. However, the contribution of engine oil depended

33

on driving conditions being higher during acceleration and steady state driving than during

34

deceleration. The highest emission factors were found with two oils that had the highest metal

35

content. The results indicate that a 10 % decrease in the Zn content of engine oils is linked with

36

an 11-13% decrease to the non-volatile particle number emissions in steady driving conditions

37

and a 5 % decrease over the New European Driving Cycle (NEDC). The effect of lubricant on

38

volatile particles was even higher, in the order of 20%.

Introduction

40

Despite their improved fuel economy and lower CO2 emissions, gasoline direct injection

41

(GDI) engines have been reported to emit more particles in number than port fuel injection

42

(PFI) engines. Most importantly, GDI engines emit more particles than modern diesel

43

vehicles equipped with diesel particulate filters1,2,3. Elevated particle emissions affect local air

44

quality and are hazardous to public health4,5,6,7,8. Exhaust particles also affect the climate by

45

scattering or absorbing solar radiation and participating in cloud formation9,10.

46

The particulate mass emitted from GDI vehicles has been reported to be composed primarily of

47

carbonaceous material originating from unburned components of the fuel and the lubrication oil.11

48

Sonntag et al.12 estimated that the contribution of lubrication oil to the fleet-averaged particulate

49

mass emission rates can be even around 25%. Lubricants related emission primarily contributes to

50

the organic fraction of particulate mass13,14,12 and is thus a source of secondary organic

51

aerosol15,16, whereas fuel combustion products have been reported to dominate the elemental

52

carbon fraction.14 Furthermore, some studies13, 54 showed that the emissions of aged lubrication

53

oils can also be a significant source of PAH emissions.

54

The exhaust particle number size distributions of GDI vehicles have been observed to possess

55

two modes.17,18,19,20,21 The larger in size, i.e. the so-called soot mode, has a mean diameter

56

between 45-60 nm21 and is composed primarily of carbonaceous agglomerates and adsorbed

57

material. A second, smaller in size mode, often appears at and below 20 nm. These very small

58

particles have previously been observed to be non-volatile and to mainly consist of

59

amorphous carbon.19,17,22 The study of Sgro et al.19 indicated that these nanoparticles were

60

formed in the combustion chamber, and they were composed of 5 nm non-volatile core onto

61

which hydrocarbons were condensed. Some studies1,24,22 indicate that when driving with high

62

engine load (high exhaust temperature) the GDI vehicle exhaust can also contain semi-volatile

63

nucleation particles. The semi-volatile particle formation in GDI vehicle exhaust seems to

ACS Paragon Plus Environment

Environmental Science & Technology

Page 4 of 26

4 64

depend on the fuel and/or lubrication oil originating sulfur,22 and the formation is qualitatively

65

similar to the formation of semi-volatile nucleation particles in diesel engine exhaust.24,25,26

66

Metallic compounds from lubrication oil or fuel have been found to increase the diesel

67

exhaust particle number concentration in the size range below 20 nm and may affect the soot

68

mode characteristics at high metal concentrations.27,28 Lubrication oil related metals (Ca, Zn,

69

Mg) have been found in the sub-20 nm particles28, associated with emissions during engine

70

braking,24,22 whereas metals (e.g. Fe, Mn) from the fuel have been found in larger particles in

71

the accumulation mode.28,29 For example, Abdul-Khalek et al.52 proposed that solid

72

nanoparticles of diesel exhaust originate from the lubrication oil metals, that is primarily Ca.

73

Lähde et al.53 reported that, in the case of heavy duty off-road diesel engine without exhaust

74

after-treatment, the change of engine oil affected the concentration of nanoparticles (mean

75

diameter smaller than 10 nm) at idle conditions. This effect was suggested to be caused by the

76

differences in the Ca concentration of lubrication oils. No effects of oil on soot particles was

77

identified in that study. In addition, the content of oils in P and S has been observed to affect

78

nanoparticle emissions of diesel engines.30,31,32

79

The harmfulness of the exposure to particles has been shown to increase together with the

80

content of metals in nanoparticles.33,34,35 PM-induced toxic activity of vehicular exhaust is

81

strongly associated with tracers of lubrication oil emissions, such as Zn, P, Ca, and hopanes,

82

suggesting that the incomplete combustion of lubrication oils is associated with increased

83

health risks.36 Engine oil has been reported to also affect the gaseous exhaust compounds. De

84

Albuquerque et al.37 showed that synthetic oils produce less hydrocarbon emissions than

85

semi-synthetic and mineral oils.

86

To our knowledge, no earlier studies have investigated the effect of lubrication oil

87

properties on particle number emissions from gasoline vehicles. However, it is reasonable to

88

assume that also in this case, the metallic compounds associated with negative health effects

89

primarily originate from engine oil. Recent studies22,24 indicate that the lubrication oil may be ACS Paragon Plus Environment

Page 5 of 26

Environmental Science & Technology

5 90

dominant in emissions during deceleration conditions and may cause very high instantaneous

91

particle number concentrations in the exhaust of gasoline vehicles.

92

In this study, dedicated experiments were conducted to provide more insights on the

93

impacts of lubrication oil to particle emissions of GDI vehicles. In total, five different oils

94

were tested in laboratory experiments and two oils over on road drive emissions. The study

95

aimed at addressing several research questions including the impact of lubrication oil

96

composition on total particle number emissions, cold start particle overemissions, volatility of

97

nanoparticles and differences between steady state and transient conditions.

Experimental Vehicle laboratory measurements. The vehicle tested on the chassis dynamometer was a

101

Euro 4 GDI car (displacement 1.8 dm3, model year 2011, 88 kW rated power). The engine is

102

powered by a turbocharged engine which operates on stoichiometric stratified combustion

103

below about 3000 rpm. The vehicle was equipped with a conventional three-way catalyst and

104

exhaust gas recirculation (EGR). The engine ran on low sulfur (< 10 mg/kg) 95-octane

105

gasoline-ethanol blend fuel, with an ethanol content of approximately 10% vol.

106

Oil properties. Five different commercial synthetic lubricant oils were tested. All oils

107

were of SAE 5W-30 viscosity specifications. Oils 1 and 2 were full SAPS (sulphated ash,

108

phosphorus and sulfur) gasoline and diesel engine oils meeting ACEA A3/B4 baseline

109

approvals.38 Oils 3, 4 and 5 were of limited catalyst chemical compatibility, i.e. so-called mid

110

SAPS engine oils, developed for vehicles with after- treatment devices. Oils 3, 4 and 5 met

111

and exceeded ACEA C3 baseline approval. Oils 1, 2 and 3 had the OEM approval so that the

112

maximum oil drain interval (ODI) was 15 000 km or one year, while Oil 4 was so called long

113

life oil for maximum 30 000 km ODI or two years usage. Oil 5 can be used as a temporary

114

replacement if no oil with specific OEM approval is available. Since the viscosity properties

115

were rather similar for all oils, including their high temperature - high shear values, it is ACS Paragon Plus Environment

Environmental Science & Technology

Page 6 of 26

6 116

expected that viscosity does not play any major role in these studies. However, the amounts of

117

the additives varied from oil to oil (Table 1). The oil change was always done in the previous

118

evening of the measurement day. Rinsing was done carefully by running the car

119

approximately 10 minutes with the new oil, followed by the actual oil change after which the

120

engine was again warmed up (~10 minutes ) to normal operating temperature.

Driving modes. The measurements were conducted during the standardized NEDC - New

126

European Driving Cycle (1180 s). This is composed of four urban-like sub-cycles constituting

127

the Urban Driving Cycle (UDC) with a total duration of 780 s, followed by a 400 s long Extra

128

Urban Driving Cycle (EUDC). The UDC simulates city driving and is characterized by low

129

engine load, low exhaust gas temperature, and a maximum speed of 50 km/h, whereas the

130

EUDC simulates highway driving and accounts for more aggressive, high speed driving

131

modes, up to a maximum speed of 120 km/h (Fig. 1). The vehicle was soaked overnight at 30 ACS Paragon Plus Environment

hereafter called ”cold start cycle”. After the cold start cycle, the NEDC cycle was repeated

four times, and all of these are considered as “warm start cycles”. After the NEDC tests

135

selected steady state points were driven each for 10-15 minutes at a speed of 80 km/h, fifth

Exhaust sampling and instrumentation. The measurement setup is the same as described

139

in Karjalainen et al.22 and Happonen et al.39 Exhaust dilution was conducted using a partial

140

exhaust flow dilution system40 consisting of a porous tube diluter with the dilution ratio of

141

about 12, a short ageing chamber with a residence time of 2.6 s, and a secondary diluter (a

142

modified Dekati diluter) with a dilution ratio of about 4.5 (Fig. S1 Supporting Information).

143

Both the primary dilution ratio and the total dilution ratio (~50-80) were calculated based

144

on the CO2 concentration in raw and diluted exhaust samples. The sample reached a

145

temperature of about 25○C after secondary dilution. This dilution system is considered to

146

fairly well mimic the cooling and dilution processes encountered during real-world driving,

147

especially in what concerns exhaust nucleation particle formation.41,42

148

During the transient tests, the number size distribution of the exhaust particles in the size

149

range of 7 nm - 10 µm were measured with two Electrical Low-Pressure Impactors (ELPI1

150

and ELPI2, Dekati Oy). The ELPIs were equipped with a filter stage43 and an additional

151

impactor stage installed for nanoparticles.44 In this work, ELPI1 was used after a

152

thermodenuder TD,45 where the diluted sample was heated to 265°C and was then led into the

153

denuding part, where cooled active charcoal on the denuder’s wall collected evaporated

154

compounds. The TD was used for half of the measurement cycles. The size distributions

155

measured after the TD were corrected for particle losses.46 In addition to the ELPIs, a

156

scanning mobility particle sizer SMPS47 was used during the steady state tests. The

157

measurement range of the SMPS equipped with DMA 3071 (TSI Inc.) and CPC 3375 (TSI ACS Paragon Plus Environment

Environmental Science & Technology

Page 8 of 26

8 158

Inc.) was 10-225 nm in 102 size bins and a total scan time of 150 s. The ELPI with 1 s time

159

resolution is more suitable for transient driving conditions whereas the SMPS provides better

160

size resolution during steady driving conditions.

161

Regulated emissions. Regulated emissions were measured during the cold start NEDC as

162

well as during the first warm NEDC with all oils. Due to a malfunction of the fuel flow meter

163

(AVL PLU 116H), fuel consumption could not be measured in all tests. In these cases, fuel

164

consumption was calculated using the formula given in Supporting Information (Table S1).

165

As seen from Table S1, the CO2-emissions were higher for the cold start cycles compared to

166

the warm cycles, while the various oils led to 6% maximum difference.

167

On-road measurements. Exhaust particle measurements were also performed on road to

168

study how well the laboratory results for Oil 1 and Oil 4 compare to real-world dilution

169

conditions. For these tests, a mobile laboratory van called “Sniffer”48,49,41chased a similar

170

passenger car as the one tested on the dynamometer. This second car (displacement 1.8 dm3,

171

model year 2012, 132 kW rated power) was Euro 5 compatible with some engine differences

172

compared to the laboratory tested car. Its engine operated on a combination of GDI and PFI

173

fuel injection practices to suppress soot emissions. PFI was implemented under low load

174

conditions, while fuel injection takes place during both the intake and compression strokes at

175

stratified operation. Overall, this engine was also stoichiometric in both stratified and

176

premixed modes. Constant speed tests (15, 30, 50, 70 km/h with gears 2, 3, 4, 5, respectively)

177

and transient acceleration tests as well as deceleration by engine braking (30 - 90 - 30 km/h,

178

gear 3) were carried out.

179

The sampling probe on the Sniffer was located above the front bumper, at 0.7 m height

180

from ground, and the distance with the preceding vehicle was kept at 12 m. The particle

181

number concentration and size distribution were measured utilizing similar instrumentation

182

with the one used in the laboratory studies: two UCPCs 3025 (TSI Inc.) and two ELPIs,

Results

187

Particle number emissions during NEDC cycles. Figure 1a-b presents the time series the

188

total and non-volatile particle numbers over the NEDC with Oil 1 and Oil 4 (see Supporting

189

Information Fig. S2 for other oils), and Fig. 1c-d depicts the time series of the particle size

190

distributions. The instantaneous concentrations measured by the ELPI were multiplied by the

191

corresponding exhaust flow volume, and then averaged over the measured cycles; in total

192

over four cycles for all particle emissions and two cycles for the non-volatile particle

193

emissions.

194

Emission peaks could be observed during accelerations; the highest value ~8x1012 #/s was

195

found with Oil 1, while the peak values with the other oils were 60-80% of that value. During

196

idle, the emissions dropped to ~7x1011 #/s with Oil 1 and Oil 5, and to ~1 x1011 #/s with the

197

others. Particle emissions were also observed during decelerations at engine braking. These

198

particles seem to originate from the lubricant oil rather than from the fuel combustion because

199

their emissions do not follow the exhaust CO2 concentration and they seem to include

200

lubricant oil originated metals.22,24

214 215 216

The average particle number emission factors EFN over the NEDC are given in Table 2.

217

The emission factors with Oil 3 and Oil 4 were similar, whereas the EFN with Oil 1 was

218

almost five-fold compared to the lowest EFN with Oil 3. In fact, a 78% reduction in particle

219

number emissions was observed solely by changing lubrication oil properties, i.e. from Oil 1

220

to Oil 3, and a 20% reduction by changing Oil 5 to Oil 3 (Table 2). The reduction is even

ACS Paragon Plus Environment

Page 11 of 26

Environmental Science & Technology

11 221

higher during cold start cycles reaching a 99% or 97% reduction if Oil 5 is changed to Oil 4 or

222

Oil2 to Oil 4, respectively (Table 2). The trends are different when separately comparing the

223

UDC and EUDC segments (Table 2). Over the UDC the lowest emissions were observed with

224

Oil 2 and the highest with Oil 5. Emission rates per km over the EUDC (7.0 km) were lower

225

than over the UDC (4.1 km) with the exception of Oil 1. The lowest emission was reached

226

with Oil 4. In general the particle emission rate per second is generally higher over the EUDC

227

(Fig. 1) than the UDC, as one would expect due the stronger accelerations of the former.

228

However, particle number emissions over the EUDC are actually lower when expressed per

229

unit of distance travelled.

230

Volatile vs. non-volatile particles. Table 2 compares particle number emissions with and

231

without the thermodenuder treatment. The majority of particles with oils 2-5 were of non-

232

volatile nature, as shown by Fig. 1a,b and Fig. S2. In contrast, 70% of particles were volatile

233

when using Oil 1. These were mostly formed during the high speed driving and the following

234

deceleration from 120 km/h to 0 km/h (the EUDC segment) and were smaller than ~20 nm

235

(Fig. 1c). Oil 1 had the highest sulfur content indicating that these particles could be of

236

sulfuric acid origin. Although this peak emission with Oil 1 was observed during all four

237

NEDC cycles, its values was halved from cycle to cycle. Thus, the results are in line with

238

previous studies22,26,32,31 which indicated that the operation history may even have the

239

dominant role in the formation of volatile nanoparticles. The phenomenon, yet weaker, was

240

also observed during the first two NEDC cycles with Oil 2 but not with the other oils, as seen

241

from Fig. 1d for Oil 4.

242 243 244

Furthermore, the UCPC data showed that with Oil 1 more than 50% of the emitted particles were even smaller than 7 nm (Fig. S3, Supporting Information). Contribution of cold starts. Compared to the warm start cycles, the emission factors were

245

much higher during the cold-start NEDC (Table 2) before the engine and the catalyst reached

246

their normal operating temperatures. At the beginning of the cold cycle the coolant ACS Paragon Plus Environment

Environmental Science & Technology

Page 12 of 26

12 247

temperature was ~29 oC and was stabilized to around 100 oC after 540 s from engine start

248

(Fig. 2a). In contrast, the coolant temperature was almost constantly at ~100 oC during the

249

warm start cycle (Fig. 2b). During the last high speed acceleration the temperature rose by 7-8

250

degrees in both cases. As seen from Fig. 2 the cumulative particle number steadily increased

251

over the cold-start cycle, by as much as two orders of magnitude, depending on the oil. The

252

total particle number ratios over the whole cold and warm cycles were 66, 54, 2.0, 1.5 and 2.5

253

for oils 1 thru 5, respectively. Peckham51 found that around 50% of the cumulative particle

254

number was emitted during the first 200 s of the cold start cycle whereas we found that 11%,

255

46%, 57%, 68% and 72% of the total NEDC emissions with oils 1 thru 5 occurred during the

256

UDC segment (780 s). The corresponding ratios for the warm cycles were 16%, 51%, 64%,

257

67%, and 60%, respectively.

Acceleration vs. deceleration. The differences in the particle size distributions with

263

different oils are shown by Fig. S4 and Table S2 in Supporting Information. The average size

264

distributions with Oil 1 thru 3 over the NEDC were bimodal in shape (Fig. S4a). One mode

265

peaked at 10-20 nm and the larger one at 45-80 nm (Table S2). The size distribution was

266

nearly unimodal with oils 4 and 5, with a peak at around 40 nm. Oil 3 led the largest particles

267

(Table S2) and Oil 5 to the lowest particle number emission.

(Fig. S4c) two features can be emphasized. First, with all oils the average emissions in the

271

soot mode were larger at the acceleration than at the deceleration phase. Second, with oils 1

272

and 2 the smaller mode emissions were in the same order of magnitude at both acceleration

273

and deceleration phases. The other oils led to much lower emissions during deceleration. With

274

all oils the emissions of larger particles (>300 nm in diameter) were also observed. The

275

existence of these particles is in line with the morphology analysis by Karjalainen et al.22

276

Particles formed in accelerations comprised 45-68% of total NEDC emissions. Particles

277

during decelerations comprised 23-41% of total NEDC emissions when oils 1 or 2 were used,

278

but less than 1 % when oils 3 to 5 were used. The particles formed during engine braking with

279

oils 1 and 2 were predominantly in the sub 20 nm size range (Fig. S4c). The majority of these

280

particles were volatile based on the measurements with and without the TD (Fig. S4c).

281

Steady state driving modes. The steady state tests revealed differences in the particle size

282

distribution with different oils. With all oils tested, the number emission factors (#/km) of

283

particles increased as the wheel power increased (Table 2), contrary to the particle

284

concentrations (#/cm3) in the exhaust that decreased respectively (not shown). The highest

285

EFs were observed with Oil 1, and the lowest with Oil 4 (Fig. S5). The distinctions were clear

286

between the different oils, and the order remained the same during all power settings.

287

The particle number size distributions measured with all oils are presented in Fig. 3. The

288

size distributions were bimodal; the geometric mean diameter of the smaller mode was ~15

289

nm while for the larger mode it was ~70 nm. For 5 kW and 10 kW wheel powers the highest

290

concentrations were observed with oils 1 and 2, both in the smaller and in the larger modes,

291

whereas no difference between oils 3 to 5 could be observed. At 20 kW absorbed power, the

292

concentration of the soot mode decreased and the smaller size mode increased with all oils,

but predominantly with oils 1 and 2. Similar trade-offs between the small and large particles

294

concentrations has been also observed in diesel exhaust.50

295

The TD treatment (265 °C) did not result to any significant change in the size or number

296

of the exhaust particles except during the 20 kW power setting when a large fraction of the

297

particles in the smaller mode were removed, especially with Oil 1.

302 303

Contribution of lubricant oil additives. The impact of the concentration of metal and

304

nonmetal compounds in the lubrication oils on particle number emissions was studied. The

305

most significant positive correlation was found for Zn (Fig. 4 a) under constant speed driving

306

conditions. Since the emission factors with oils 2 - 5 were so close to each other, no

307

correlation of particle number and lube oil species content could be established over the

308

NEDC. However, such correlations could be established for non-volatile particles (Fig. 4b).

309

Similar results were obtained for P (Fig. 4c,d) and Mg (not shown). Non-volatile particles

310

positively correlated also with S at the 20 kW and NEDC tests (Fig. 4f). Total particles were

311

positively correlated also at smaller power settings. These results indicate that a 10 percent

312

decrease in the amount of magnesium, zinc, sulfur, and phosphorus in the lubrication oil

On road tests. During the on-road constant speed tests, the particle number concentration

in the exhaust plume was around 1900-2200 cm-3, that is at background levels. During

326

transient tests and in particular, over accelerations, increased particle numbers in the exhaust ACS Paragon Plus Environment

Environmental Science & Technology

plume could be detected with both oils. The CPC and, the ELPI to a lesser extent, also

328

detected some higher particle numbers during decelerations. The EEPS recordings were at the

329

detection limit of the instrument.

330

As an example, Fig. S6 (Supporting Information) presents the particle concentrations when

331

the car rapidly accelerated from 30 km/h to 90 km/h with gear 2, and then after 23 s

332

decelerated back to 30 km/h by engine braking. The highest particle concentrations were

333

observed during the acceleration part, with an average value over all repetitions of (8.5±3.0)

334

x104 cm-3 with Oil 1 and much lower (1.5±0.5) x104 cm-3 with Oil 4 (Fig. 5a). These values

335

were significantly above background. The peak concentrations during engine braking were

336

rather close to each other, at (5.8±1.5)x103 cm-3 and (5.4±2.4)x103 cm-3 with oils 1 and 4,

337

respectively.

353 354

Discussion

355

Modern lubricant oils protect against corrosion and sludge formation, and contain detergent

356

additives to keep the engine clean. For example, typical detergents are magnesium sulfonates

357

whereas zinc dithiophosphates are used as antioxidant and antiwear additives. Recently many

358

improvements have been made in the quality and durability of lubricant oils. Particularly the

359

content in metal compounds has been decreased in order to protect catalysts.

360

In this study, it was observed that the lubricant oil contributes to the formation of gasoline

361

vehicle exhaust particles in several different ways. Firstly, our laboratory tests showed that the

362

concentration of the additives (Zn, Mg, P and S) in the lubricant oils was positively correlated

363

with particle number emissions. The highest emission factors were observed with oils 1, 2 and

364

5, which had the highest metal (Zn, Ca, Mg) and S contents (Table 2). Our results indicate

365

that approximately a 10% decrease in P or Zn content may decrease non-volatile particle

366

emission factors by 9-11%.

367

Secondly, particle emissions during transient operation strongly depended on lubrication

368

oil; a 78% reduction in particle number emissions was observed solely by shifting from Oil 1

369

to Oil 3, and a 20% reduction by shifting from Oil 5 to Oil 3 (Table 2) in the warm start

370

NEDC. The change was even higher during cold start cycles, amounting to 99% and 97%

371

reduction if Oil 5 was changed to Oil 4 or Oil 2 to Oil 4, respectively (Table 2).

372

Thirdly, the lubrication oil contributed to both volatile and non-volatile particle emissions

373

during accelerations and steady state driving modes. With Oil 1, 70% of particles were

374

volatile, formed during the high speed driving and the following deceleration from 120 km/h ACS Paragon Plus Environment

Environmental Science & Technology

Page 18 of 26

18 375

to 0 km/h, whereas with the other oils the majority of the particles over the full cycle were

376

non-volatile (99%).

377

However, the non-volatile particle emissions during engine braking were not significantly

378

affected by the lubricants. While the emissions of volatile particles may have depended on the

379

lubricant oil sulfur content, the non-volatile particle emissions more clearly depended on the

380

metal contents of lubricant oil, especially during steady state driving. It should be noted that

381

the majority of emitted particles were non-volatile, whereas, volatile particles were observed

382

at high speed driving only and their existence was affected by the driving history.

383

Therefore, it is important to recognize that the characteristics of gasoline engine lubrication

384

oils should be taken into account when considering the ways to improve air quality in urban

385

areas and to protect human health. Our results indicate that the gasoline vehicle particle

386

emissions can be significantly reduced by regulating lubricant oil additives. The choice of

387

lubrication oil becomes even more emphasized in winter conditions. For example, Pirjola et

388

al.49 reported that particle number emissions of traffic in Finland are 2-3 fold compared to

389

those in summer conditions. Part of that may be caused by differences in the functionality of

390

engine oil under cold conditions.

391

It should be noted that fresh lubrication oils were used in these experiments. Christianson

392

et al.55 reported that oil conditioning and ageing can have a significant impact on particle

393

mass emissions so that emissions decrease in the first 2000 miles of lubricant break-in. More

394

work in needed to assess the impacts of lubricant ageing on particle emissions.
