Abstract
A high-efficient conversion of dimethyl ether (DME) to diesel fuel additive s at ambient condition via dielectric-barrier discharges has been performed . The conversion of DME reaches a high value of 66.56% at a gas flow rate o f 30 mL.min(-1). The liquid obtained is a cetane number promoter of diesel fuels. The selectivity of liquid product is more than 40%.
