The primary objective is to reduce the level of pollution emitted from diesel engines, a bit of ethanol injection into the diesel engine can reduce the level of smoke and PM emissions, however emission levels of hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide will increase.

The secondary objective is to reduce diesel fuel consumption of the engine by substituting some diesel fuel with ethanol.
