A diesel fuel composition which essentially comprises only paraffins, and which is characterised in that 1) the normal paraffins with 18 or fewer carbons constitute not less than 12% by mass, and 2) the proportion of the total peak area of the peak group at chemical shifts of 1.45 to 2.25...
Red diesel fuel is used in the construction and farming industries, mainly in machinery and off-road vehicles. Red diesel's chemical composition doesn’t differ from regular automobile fuel. However, it’s illegal to use it in commercial vehicles. This product has a high-sulfur content, making...
Accidental exposure to various hydrocarbons such as fuel and refinery products, frequently occurs in the storage and transportation system. Diesel spill accounts for approximately 25% of annual spill accidents in Canada1. The identification of pollution origin is important to remediate diesel-contaminated...
CHEMICAL SENSOR AND FIELD SCREENING TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT: FUELS IN SOILS FIELD SCREENING METHOD VALIDATION A new screening method for fuel contamination in soils was recently developed as American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) Method D-583 1-95, Stand... Sorini, S. S,Schabron, J....
The composition of fuel changes from one batch to the next. It depends on the source of crude oil and of its processing. Refineries make a good job of providing useable fuels from extremely varied crude oil, but all they can guarantee are global properties, like the density, the flash poin...
Diesel fuel is a heavier faction of crude oil than kerosene, again comprising a band of hydrocarbons, with an average composition of C12.9H23.9 and molecular weight of 178.6. It is less refined and hence has a lower cost, but therefore also contains small percentages of other elements such ...
The basic structure of 2 DIESEL FUEL consists of hydrocarbon molecules, which are composed of carbon and hydrogen atoms. Its molecular formula may vary depending on the specific composition of the fuel. 2 DIESEL FUEL is insoluble in water, meaning it does not dissolve in water. However, it ...
6.Composition of matter comprising a mixture of a diesel fuel and liquid CO2, wherein a mole fraction, XCO2, of the liquid CO2in the composition is in the range between 0.0-0.9, wherein the fuel-CO2mixture is one of a liquid near a supercritical region and a supercritical fluid prior ...
A fuel composition is disclosed comprising a major amount of hydrocarbons boiling in the diesel range and an effective deposit-controlling amount of at least one stability additive
Diesel fuel oil compositions comprising high molecular weight, high total base number nitrogen containing dispersants provide exceptional diesel fuel injector cleanliness.
