Abstract

Toxicological properties of diesel engines’ exhaust gases, in particular polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, as well as diesel
 engines’ exhaust gases composition, toxicity assessment technique for exhaust gases of diesel engines working at different
 types of fuel have been presented. Advantages related to use in diesels a biological fuel made on basis of vegetable oils
