Abstract
Fuels, methods of producing fuels, and methods of using fuels to reduce the amount of atmospheric pollutants (NOx, CO, and/or hydrocarbons) formed on combustion of middle distillate fuels in engines or burner apparatus. These results can be achieved without concomitant increases in emissions of particulates. The fuels contain less than 500 ppm of sulfur and at least one peroxy ester combustion improver.
