Diesel and fuel oils

Methanol can be used as an alternative fuel for gasoline, diesel and fuel oil. Tests are being made for these three alternative uses. The methanol fuel will substitute for oil derivatives defined by Brazil s energy policy. What has to be done now is to verify the technical advantages and disadvantages to each form of utilization. 

The plenary papers were mostly reviews covering important topics related to the objectives of the conference. The remaining sections cover various topics of major impact on modern petroleum refining and petrochemical industries. A large number of papers dealt with hydroprocessing of petroleum distillates and residues which reflects the concern over meeting future sulfur-level specifications for diesel and fuel oils.

Diesel and Fuel Oils. The second most important petroleum products, which account for about 26 percent of crude oil, are diesel and other fuel oils. These fuel oils have longer hydrocarbon chains than gasoline and thus boil at higher temperatures. Diesel is used as fuel for trucks, buses, ships, locomotives, and automobiles. In Europe, diesel engines are very popular for automobiles as they are more fuel efficient. Environmentalists have expressed concern about burning these fuels because the process creates the pollutant sulfur dioxide.
