Is diesel fuel the same as distillate?
No, 'distillate' is not the same as diesel fuel. It is more like kerosene and is used in engines that have spark plugs for ignition rather than high compression to ignite the (injected) fuel. Distillate engines often have a small gasoline tank so they will start col on gasoline and you switch it to distillate after it warms up.
How do you increase the flash point in diesel oil?
A low flash point in diesel is caused by contamination of the diesel with lighter petroleum products such as kerosene or gasoline. Drawing more lighter products out of the fractionation tower could reduce contamination of the heavier products. Improving fractionation and improving diesel product stripping performance will raise the flash point.
What is HFO?
Heavy Fuel Oil is what if refereed to as the heavies, is the long chain hydrocarbons in crude that can not be distilled at 350 F. The products includes greases, waxes, plastics, asphalts, tar etc. The HFO can be further process to separate the different products or can be cracked, a process that breaks the long chain hydrocarbons in to shorter chain hydrocarbons and distilled into LNG, gasoline, diesel, kerosene etc.
What method of separation is used in the refinery to separate crude oil into its constituents such as petrol kerosene diesel?
Fractional distillation ( i think)
What is the chemical composition of Jet fuel?
Jet fuel is basically just high grade kerosene, with some iceing & microbiological contamination inhibitors added.
What are ten things that you can make out of oil?
* Petrochemicals (Plastic) * Asphalt * Diesel fuel * Fuel oils * Gasoline * Kerosene * Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) * Lubricating oils * Paraffin wax * Tar
Which burns slower kerosene or gasoline?
Kerosene burns slower than gasoline because it has a higher flash point and is less volatile. This means that kerosene requires more time and heat to ignite and burn compared to gasoline.
How long does it take for gasoline to turn to kerosene?
Gasoline and kerosene are both derived from crude oil but have different boiling points due to their molecular composition. Gasoline has a lower boiling point and evaporates faster than kerosene. There isn't a specific time frame for gasoline to turn into kerosene as they are distinct products with different properties.
Does kerosene have more btu per gallon thaN gasoline?
Yes. Kerosene has 140,000 btu's per gallon and gasoline has less.
Which fraction of petroleum is in very high demand?
Fule (oil disile ) 250-350
Can we produce bitumen mixing gasoline with kerosene?
NO.
How do you determine if liquid is kerosene or gasoline?
Match test. Gasoline generates bigger boom.
Can Coleman fuel be used as gasoline in a car?
No, because cars run on gasoline not kerosene
What is the compsition of JP-8 fuel?
Gasoline and kerosene.
What liquid has the lowest density?
i think gasoline
What is the compsition of JP 8 fuel?
Gasoline and kerosene.
How is gasoline kerosene and crude petroleum are related?
Gasoline, kerosene, and crude petroleum are related in that they are all derived from the refining of crude oil. Crude petroleum is the raw material that undergoes refining processes to produce gasoline and kerosene, among other products. Gasoline is a lighter fraction of crude oil used as fuel for vehicles, while kerosene is a slightly heavier fraction often used as a fuel for heating and lighting.
