Fuel blending

Methanol is more soluble in aromatic than paraffinic hydrocarbons. Thus varying gasoline compositions can affect fuel blends. At room temperature, the solubiUty of methanol in gasoline is very limited in the presence of water. Generally, cosolvents are added to methanol—gasoline blends to enhance water tolerance. Methanol is practically insoluble in diesel fuel. [Pg.87]

Another factor which must be considered when blending oxygenates is the effect of a large amount of a single component on the volatihty and therefore the driveabiUty characteristics of the fuel blend. In addition to desired cutpoints, the volatihty curve of a good fuel should be smooth and not... [Pg.185]

Plant operators should aim at using fuel with less than 0.5% sulfur (or an emissions level corresponding to 0.5% sulfur in fuel). High-sulfur fuels should be directed to units equipped with SO, controls. Fuel blending is another option. A sulfur recovery system that achieves at least 97% (but preferably... [Pg.107]

Calculate the mass or weight of chemical in the wastestream being treated by multiplying the concentration (by weight) of the chemical in the wastestream by the flow rate. In most cases, the percent removal compares the treated effluent to the influent for the particular type of wastestream. However, for some treatment methods, such as Incineration or solidification of wastewater, the percent removal of the chemical from the influent wastestream would be reported as 100 percent because the wastestream does not exist in a comparable form after treatment. Some of the treatments (e.g., fuel blending and evaporation) do not destroy, chemically convert, or physically remove the chemical from its wastestream. For these treatment methods, an efficiency of zero must be reported. [Pg.49]

The emphasis on distillate production and more specifically the production of a diesel fuel blending component was a deliberate design decision. The design nevertheless included the flexibility to also produce chemicals, such as paraffins and paraffin waxes. [Pg.356]

An accident occurred in a fuel-blending facility that provided a way to reuse flammable and hazardous wastes. One worker was killed and two others were injured. The explosion and resulting fire caused extensive damage to the facility. [Pg.555]

Biomass contains more oxygen than fossil sources (30-50 wt.%, see Fig. 6.1). In Fig. 6.1, (biomass and fossil) sources and fuels (fuel blends) are positioned in the O/C-H/C plane. [Pg.122]

Several researchers have shown that alkali present in the feedstock influences the yields and compositions of the pyrolysis products [56, 59]. An interesting result was reported by Brown and coworkers [60] who found that addition of (NH4)2S04 as catalyst to the pyrolysis of dematerialized (alkali free) corn stover resulted in a pyrolysis oil that contained 23 wt.% levoglucosan (normally 1-3 wt.% levoglucosan is present in pyrolysis oil). Levoglucosan is a component from which various fuel blends and chemicals can be produced. [Pg.135]

There has been a recent revival in interest in the use of ethanol-diesel fuel blends (E-diesel) in heavy-duty vehicles as a means to reduce petroleum dependency, increase renewable fuels use, and reduce vehicle emissions [27]. E-diesel blends containing 10-15% ethanol could be prepared via the use of additives. However, several fuel properties that are essential to the proper operation of a diesel engine are affected by the addition of ethanol to diesel fuel - in particular, blend stability, viscosity and lubricity, energy content and cetane number (increasing concentrations of ethanol in diesel lower the cetane number proportionately) [28]. Materials compatibility and corrosiveness are also important factors that need to be considered. [Pg.195]
