apparently cooking oil with diesel
Petroleum. I'm not sure if it's a distillation process. Diesel is refined from petroleum but I'm not sure how.
Diesel is made by refining crude oil. It's a non-renewable, fossil fuel.
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.
Diesel
water max boiling is 100 c. and diesel max boiling is 365 c.
Petrol has a boiling point of 38-204 degrees Centigrade, while diesel has a boiling point of >150 degrees centigrade.
Petrol has a lower boiling point than diesel. This is because petrol is a lighter fraction of crude oil, consisting of shorter hydrocarbon chains, which results in a lower boiling point compared to diesel.
Yes, it is possible.
Yes, diesel generally has larger molecules than petrol. This difference in molecular size is one of the factors that contribute to the differences in properties between diesel and petrol, such as their boiling points and combustion characteristics.
Distillation, Gasoline has a lower boiling-point, so it will separate-out first.
Diesel fuels have different chemical compositions, which affect the boiling point. Conventional diesel fuels usually have a boiling range of about 149 degrees C to 371 degrees C.
Catalyst is not the right word to use. A catalyst speeds up the reaction and has nothing to do with the boiling point. If you want to reduce the boiling point of diesel you would have to take out more impurities through further refining.

One method to separate diesel from water is using a specialized separator or coalescer, which takes advantage of the difference in densities between the two substances. The coalescer causes the diesel to rise to the top, where it can be skimmed off, leaving behind the water. Additionally, the process of distillation can also be used to separate diesel from water by heating the mixture to separate the components based on their boiling points.
Diesel fuel is removed at the bottom of a distillation tower because it has a higher boiling point compared to lighter fractions like gasoline. In the distillation process, different fractions are separated based on their boiling points, with heavier components collecting at the bottom. This allows for the efficient separation and collection of diesel fuel.
