Ultralow sulfur diesel ULSD is a cleanerburning diesel fuel that contains a maximum of 15 parts per million ppm of sulfur ULSD contains 97 less sulfur than lowsulfur diesel LSD which typically contains 500 ppm of sulfur The European Union began mandating the reduction of diesel sulfur content in 1993 and the United States started phasing in ULSD requirements for highway vehicles in 2006 It was developed to allow for the use of improved pollution control devices that reduce diesel emissions ULSD can significantly reduce emissions when used in combination with cleanerburning diesel engines and vehicles It may react with strong acids or strong oxidizing agents such as chlorates nitrates and peroxides You should avoid contact with heat sparks fire and oxidizing agents The appearance of ULSD should be clear and bright free from visible sediment and water
Crude oil is a naturally occurring unrefined petroleum product that is made up of a mixture of hydrocarbons and other organic compounds It is the raw material that is used to produce a variety of refined petroleum products including gasoline diesel fuel and heating oil Crude oil is extracted from the earth through drilling and is transported to refineries where it is processed and refined into various products Crude oil has a wide range of physical properties Crude oil is made up of 845 carbon 13 hydrogen 13 sulfur and less than 1 each of nitrogen oxygen metals and salts REBCO is a specific type of crude oil that is produced in Russia and the surrounding regions It is a highquality crude oil that is known for its low sulfur content and low viscosity The middle east light crude oil is also highquality crude oil The GOST 51 8582002 specification refers to the Russian standard for REBCO which outlines the crude oils characteristics and performance requirements Gost 51 858 2002 offers from exporters manufacturers suppliers wholesalers and distributors globally by price and quality of the oil REBCO is an important commodity in the global energy market and it is carefully regulated to ensure that it meets the necessary standards for safety and performance Maximum Sulfur Content 18 Paraffin Content 60 Maximum Water Sediment Content 12 Distillation Weight 21 Up to 200 N min 21 Up to 300 N min 41 Up to 350 N min 50 and Maximum salts content MGL 100
The full name of Jet Fuel A1 is the aviation Kerosene Colonial Grade 54 Jet Fuel JP 54 Jet fuel designed for use in aircraft powered by gasturbine engines It is clear to strawcolored in appearance The most commonly used fuels for commercial aviation are Jet A and Jet A1 which are produced to a standardized international specification Jet fuel is a mixture of a large number of different hydrocarbons The range of their sizes is restricted by the requirements for the product for example the freezing point or smoke point Kerosenetype jet fuel has a carbon number distribution between about 8 and 16 carbon numbers carbon atoms per molecule wide cut or naphthatype jet fuel including Jet B between about 5 and 15 carbon number Jet A1 is the standard specification fuel used in the rest of the world Jet A1 has a flash point higher than 38C 100 F with an autoignition temperature of 210 C 410 F
Liquefied petroleum gases LPG A group of hydrocarbon gases primarily propane normal butane and isobutane derived from crude oil refining or natural gas processing These gases may be marketed individually or mixed Liquefied petroleum gas also referred to as LPG or LP gas is a fuel gas which contains a flammable mixture of hydrocarbon gases specifically propane nbutane and isobutane LPG any of several liquid mixtures of the volatile hydrocarbons propene propane butene and butane It was used as early as 1860 for a portable fuel source and its production and consumption for both domestic and industrial use have expanded ever since A typical commercial mixture may also contain ethane and ethylene as well as a volatile mercaptan an odorant added as a safety precaution
D6 is a type of residual fuel, mainly used in power plants and larger ships. The fuel requires to be preheated before it can be used. It is not possible to use it in smaller engines or vessels/vehicles where it is not possible to pre-heat it. D6 is its name in the USA. In other parts of the world, it has other names. Residual means the material remaining after the more valuable cuts of crude oil have boiled off. The residue may contain various undesirable impurities including 2% water and one- half percent mineral soil. D6 fuel is also known as residual fuel oil (RFO), by the Navy specification of Bunker C, or by the Pacific Specification of PS-400.
Automotive Gas Oil (AGO) is also known as diesel because it is� a by-product of crude oil. It is gotten in the mid-boiling range of the crude oil refining process. AGO is a less flammable fuel compared to other petroleum products such as premium motor spirit. AGO is used in two main types of vehicles namely heavy-duty vehicles, such as trucks and buses and light-duty vehicles, such as vans and passenger cars. Both oil and natural gas are made up primarily of hydrocarbon (H), which is a chemical compound consisting entirely of carbon (C) and hydrogen (H). They can be classified further into a variety of types depending on the structure of molecules and how they are bound.
Gasoil or D2 is the second distillate obtained from crude oil There are varying contents of sulphur in Gasoil and D2 products that will affect when the fuel is best to use seasons and the cost thereof To ensure that clients are provided with suitable D2 products there are ISO industry standards that suppliers must adhere to Gasoil Gas oil forms part of a family of heavy oils It is created by means of a process of fractional distillation of petroleum It is used as a diesel fuel in heating and automotive applications Gas oil that is used to power offroad vehicles that are used in the industrial commercial and agricultural communities is often called red diesel Fuels and oils are taxed differently depending on their purpose gas oil used for tractors mowers and tippers are dyed red in order for inspectors to tell the difference Other gas oil is considered white diesel as it is not dyed D2 Gas Oil This is gas oil that is the second distillate and is obtained through the processing of crude oil Reformers and additives are not required to make use of this fuel The version of D2 that has lower sulphur content is called GOST 30582 It is presented to the market as a major reduction in pollution gas oil GOST 30582 GOST 30582 is D2 with lower sulphur content GOST is a variant of Gasoil and D2 that is in line with ISO industry standards with a sulphur content of 002 max This is known as Ultra Low Sulphur fuel Low sulphur fuel is that with 02 sulphur content
