What chemicals can remove or greatly reduce the smell of burning diesel fuel?

I am not a chemist myself but I am trying to solve a practical problem I am experiencing.


I have a nicely working diesel stove but it produces some smell.
I've read that adding urea to the exhaust may reduce the diesel specific smell? Is that true?


Also what other common (easy to find) chemicals can supress the specific smell of burning diesel?
What about potassium permanganate for example? Is urea the best chemical to supress these smells or there are others which can do better?




First off try low sulfur diesel, or better yet: kerosene.


Next try and find a catalytic converter, perhaps off an old Colman heater or maybe at your local wood burning stove store. Cats do the same wonders in stoves as they have done in automobiles.


NOx should not be too much of an issue if the stove if properly vented.
Try kerosene first.
