Diesel
Kian Petroleum Company is an international specialized company of petrochemical industry with production and supply of various petroleum products and production and export of various petrochemical products such as naphtha, light and heavy hydrocarbons, liquid paraffin, diesel , etc
Diesel or gas is used as fuel for engines and thermal installations
Its hydrocarbon range is between C14-C20 and even C25 with a boiling point range of 385-250 degrees Celsius
Petroleum gas mainly consists of three groups of paraffinic, naphthenic and aromatic, has a minimum flash point of 54 ° C and a maximum pour point of 0 ° C
This article includes any liquid fuel used in engines
This fuel is mostly obtained by a special distillation method other than diesel oil, but there are other methods for processing this fuel without the use of oil
such as Biodiesel, liquefied biomass (BTL) and liquefied petroleum gas (GTL) were mentioned, and their global use is increasing rapidly
Diesel is a colorless liquid, and in order to identify it and distinguish it from other liquids and products
they change its color to a brownish color
It is a mixture of different hydrocarbons that have between 14 and 20 (even up to 25) carbon atoms in their molecular structure
Its most important use is as fuel for engines, thermal installations and fuel of some factories
To dispel the ambiguity between oil-derived species and other species, the oil species is called diesel or petrodiesel
Very Low Sulfur is the standard definition of diesel that has very low sulfur
the quality
The quality of diesel fuel used in engines or generators will greatly affect the breakdowns and the quality of work of the devices
The quality of diesel fuel depends on several factors that are divided into two categories of primary and secondary factors
Primary factors are those that are related to production processes and should be considered before entering the work process
The shape of the chemical bonds, the amount of sulfur and water present, the amount of primary microorganisms, etc
make up these items. Secondary cases are cases such as the time elapsed from the date of manufacture
the amount of bonds broken and the secondary contaminants entering it, the amount of water and microorganisms grown in the fuel
According to the recommendations of most manufacturers of diesel engines and generators
initial tests according to ASTM standard and obtaining a fuel certificate based on the requirements of the diesel engine manufacturer are necessary
