Diesel heavy

Domestic fuel oils are those used primarily in the home and include kerosene, stove oil, and furnace fuel oil. Diesel fuel oils are also distillate fuel oils, but residual oils have been successhjlly used to power marine diesel engines, and mixtures of distillates and residuals have been used on locomotive diesels. Heavy fuel oils include a variety of oils, ranging from distillates to residual oils, that must be heated to 260°C or higher before they can be used. In general, heavy fuel oil consists of residual oil blended with distillate to suit specific needs. Heavy fuel oil includes various industrial oils and, when used to fuel ships, is called bunker oil. [Pg.211]

The Hot Air Vapor Extraction System (HAVE) is an ex situ commercial technology that uses a sequence of thermal, heap pile, and vapor extraction techniques to remove and destroy hydrocarbon contamination in soil. This technology is effective in cleaning soils contaminated with gasoline, diesel, heavy oil, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. [Pg.991]

The reaction results in the formation of gases such as methane, ethane, ethylene, propane, propylene, iso-butane, n-butane, hydrogen gaseous petrol, kerosene, diesel, heavy oil (CLO). The gases are subsequently allowed to pass through a condenser. [Pg.727]

Emission regulations for heavy-duty vehicles in Europe were originally introduced by Directive 88/77/EEC which was followed by a number of amendments. As a result, mass emission standards for diesel heavy-duty engines were reduced from 0.36 g kWh in 1992 (Euro 1) to 0.02 g kWh in 2008 (Euro 5). Figure 3... [Pg.609]

Sasol I operates 3 reactors in parallel. The mean catalyst lifetime is 42 days. On the average/ 2.4 reactors are steadily under operation. Each reactor produces 60/000 tns of primary products per year. The product distribution is given in Table 1 and compared with that of the fixed bed process. The Synthol process reveals a maximum in gasoline fuel while the main products of the fixed bed process are higher hydrocarbons like diesel/ heavy oils and wax. [Pg.965]

Thus, according to the definitions, diesel fuel (or gas oil) is not a heating fuel but a motor fuel. Incidentally, heavy fuel can be considered a heating fuel or a motor fuel depending on its application in a burner or in a marine diesel engine. [Pg.177]

With respect to fuels utilized as heating fuels for industrial furnaces, or as motor fuels for large diesel engines such as those in ships or power generation sets, the characteristics of primary importance are viscosity, sulfur content and the content of extremely heavy materials (asphaltenes) whose combustion can cause high emissions of particulates which are incompatible with antipollution legislation. [Pg.178]

For a long time the official specifications for diesel fuel set only a mciximum viscosity of 9.5 mm /s at 20°C. Henceforth, a range of 2.5 mm /s minimum to 4.5 mm /s maximum has been set no longer for 20°C but at 40°C which seems to be more representative of injection pump operation. Except for special cases such as very low temperature very fluid diesel fuel and very heavy products, meeting the viscosity standards is not a major problem in refining. [Pg.214]

Heavy fuels are used for two kinds of applications industrial combustion in power plants and furnaces, and fueling large ships having low-speed powerful diesel engines (Clark, 1988). [Pg.235]

In 1993, French consumption of these products was around 6 Mt and 2.5 Mt respectively for use in burners and in diesel engines. The latter figure appears in the statistics under the heading, marine bunker fuel . Its consumption been relatively stable for several years, whereas heavy industrial fuel use has diminished considerably owing to the development of nuclear energy. However, it seems that heavy fuel consumption has reached a bottom limit in areas where it is difficult to replace, e.g., cement plants. [Pg.235]

The density of heavy fuels is greater than 0.920 kg/1 at 15°C. The marine diesel consumers focus close attention on the fuel density because of having to centrifuge water out of the fuel. Beyond 0.991 kg/1, the density difference between the two phases —aqueous and hydrocarbon— becomes too small for correct operation of conventional centrifuges technical improvements are possible but costly. In extreme cases of fuels being too heavy, it is possible to rely on water-fuel emulsions, which can have some advantages of better atomization in the injection nozzle and a reduction of pollutant emissions such as smoke and nitrogen oxides. [Pg.236]

The properties linked to storage and distribution do not directly affect the performance of engines and burners, but they are important in avoiding upstream incidents that could sometimes be very serious. We will examine in turn the problems specific to gasoline, diesel fuel, jet fuel and heavy fuel. [Pg.242]

The main justification for diesel fuel desulfurization is related to particulate emissions which are subject to very strict rules. Part of the sulfur is transformed first into SO3, then into hydrated sulfuric acid on the filter designed to collect the particulates. Figure 5.21 gives an estimate of the variation of the particulate weights as a function of sulfur content of diesel fuel for heavy vehicles. The effect is greater when the test cycle contains more high temperature operating phases which favor the transformation of SO2 to SO3. This is particularly noticeable in the standard cycle used in Europe (ECE R49). [Pg.254]

All modern refineries have conversion units, designed to transform black effluent streams into lighter products gas, gasoline, diesel fuel. Among these conversion units, coking processes take place by pyrolysis and push the cracking reaction so far that the residue from the operation is very heavy it is called coke . [Pg.292]

For example, in the case of light Arabian crude (Table 8.16), the sulfur content of the heavy gasoline, a potential feedstock for a catalytic reforming unit, is of 0.036 weight per cent while the maximum permissible sulfur content for maintaining catalyst service life is 1 ppm. It is therefore necessary to plan for a desulfurization pretreatment unit. Likewise, the sulfur content of the gas oil cut is 1.39% while the finished diesel motor fuel specification has been set for a maximum limit of 0.2% and 0.05% in 1996 (French specifications). [Pg.343]

At the end of the 1960 s, oil refining underwent significant transformation linked to the continuous increase in the need for light products (gasoline-diesel oil) at the expense of heavy products (fuel-oils) as shown in Table 10.1. [Pg.365]

The flowscheme of the typical refinery during the period 1950-1970 was essentially focused on the production of gasoline, diesel oil, domestic heating oil and industrial fuel-oil. Except for heavy naphtha, the product streams underwent no deep conversion. [Pg.406]

Heavy residue conversion is linked to the demand for high quality diesel motor fuel (aromatics content 10%, cetane number 55) as well as to the demand for production of light fuel-oil having very low sulfur, nitrogen and metal contents. [Pg.411]

The products could be classified as a function of various criteria physical properties (in particular, volatility), the way they are created (primary distillation or conversion). Nevertheless, the classification most relevant to this discussion is linked to the end product use LPG, premium gasoline, kerosene and diesel oil, medium and heavy fuels, specialty products like solvents, lubricants, and asphalts. Indeed, the product specifications are generally related to the end use. Traditionally, they have to do with specific properties octane number for premium gasoline, cetane number for diesel oil as well as overall physical properties such as density, distillation curves and viscosity. [Pg.483]

We cite isomerization of Cs-Ce paraffinic cuts, aliphatic alkylation making isoparaffinic gasoline from C3-C5 olefins and isobutane, and etherification of C4-C5 olefins with the C1-C2 alcohols. This type of refinery can need more hydrogen than is available from naphtha reforming. Flexibility is greatly improved over the simple conventional refinery. Nonetheless some products are not eliminated, for example, the heavy fuel of marginal quality, and the conversion product qualities may not be adequate, even after severe treatment, to meet certain specifications such as the gasoline octane number, diesel cetane number, and allowable levels of certain components. [Pg.485]
