Prime movers are typically fueled by natural gas or diesel. Dual fuel turbine units exist that can run on natural gas and can automatically switch to diesel. So-called dual fuel reciprocating engines run on a mixture of diesel and natural gas. When natural gas is not available, they can automatically switch to 100% diesel. Most prime movers associated with producing facilities are typically natural gas fueled due to the ready availability of fuel. Diesel fueled machines are typically used to provide stand-by power or power for intermittent or emergency users such as cranes, stand-by generators, firewater pumps, etc. [Pg.467]

The term white distillate is applied to all the refinery streams with a distillation range between approximately 80 and 360°C (175 to 680°F) at atmospheric pressure and with properties similar to the corresponding straight-run distillate from atmospheric crude distillation. Light distillate products (i.e., naphtha, kerosene, jet fuel, diesel fuel, and heating oil) are all manufactured by appropriate blending of white distillate streams. [Pg.75]

The KAL CON Environmental Services (a division of Kalkaska Constrnction Services, Inc.) thermal desorption process is an ex situ treatment technology that removes hydrocarbon contamination from soil. This process has been used to treat soils contaminated with gasoline, jet fuel, diesel fuel, kerosene, crude oil, and crude condensate. [Pg.730]

The processes utilized in the refinery to produce finished fuels such as gasoline, jet fuel, diesel fuel, and heating oil can be quite complex. Constant monitoring of the refining process is required by engineers. This is because the characteristics of the various crude oils refined can change frequently and also because the finished product volume demand can change often. [Pg.5]

Fuel degradation by oxidation is a common cause of fuel stability problems. Gasoline, jet fuel, diesel fuel, and heating oil are all susceptible to oxidative degradation. The following methods can be used to help determine the oxidative stability of fuels ... [Pg.175]

Low-temperature cooling limits are specified for each month of the year in the various states of the United States. Gasoline must meet these low-temperature limits for water tolerance before it can be marketed and sold. In addition to gasoline, water tolerance requirements also exist for jet fuel, diesel fuel, and heating oil. [Pg.184]

In this section, you learned about some of the risks and benefits resulting from our use of fossil fuels. We obtain gasoline, heating oil, jet fuel, diesel fuel, fertilizers, and plastics from the oil and petroleum industry. Burning fossil fuels, however, produces carbon dioxide (a greenhouse gas) and other pollutants that lead to acid rain. Transporting oil also carries the risk of oil spills. Do the benefits of fossil fuels outweigh the risks Complete these Section Review questions to help you decide. [Pg.626]

Incendiary and explosive devices are used in most terrorist attacks. As a result of combustion of fuel and hazardous materials, PAHs are released in high volumes. Exposure of civilians or deployed personnel to fumes containing PAHs constitutes an acute exposure scenario. Additionally, defense forces involved in extinguishing oil well fires, and cleanup tasks are exposed to low levels of PAHs over a more protracted time period. In addition, over 1.3 million civilian and military personnel are occupationally exposed to hydrocarbon fuels, particularly gasoline, jet fuel, diesel fuel, or kerosene on a near daily basis. Studies have reported acute or persisting neurotoxic effects from acute, subchronic, or chronic exposure of humans or animals to hydrocarbon fuels (Ritchie et n/., 2001), specifically burning of jet fuels, which release PAHs in considerable proportions.

The U.S. Navy is in the final stages of designing a strategic sealift ship to transport already-fueled vehicles—armored tanks, tanker trucks, other trucks of various sizes, trailers, jeeps, and helicopters. Prefueling will eliminate the need for fueling at docking and will permit deployment of the vehicles as soon as they are unloaded from the ship. All the military vehicles transported on the ship are designed to use jet-propulsion (JP) fuels JP-5 or JP-8 to avoid the need for different fuels. Diesel fuel marine (DFM) is used to operate the ship. [Pg.167]

Table 1 gives the typical chemical compositions of some of the main fuels by individual molecules, by families of molecules or by analysis of the elements. These include natural gases (NG), liquefied petroleum gases (LPG), unleaded petrols, turbojet fuels, diesel fuels and diesel fuel oils, heavy fuels, low-energy gases. [Pg.35]
