Technical fuel is used for production power plants and industrial furnaces heating. It includes high-grade fuel in various aggregate states: coke, combustible gases, metallurgical coals, masut, etc. Technical fuel is not produced according to GOST, but according to the technical specification, therefore its composition and properties directly depend on the manufacturer. The main requirements for […]

Marine low viscosity fuel is used for refuelling of vessels power equipment. It is often called marine solar oil. Marine fuel properties are significantly inferior compared to diesel fuel because of the small cetane number (up to 45) and high sulfur content. Such fuel cannot be used in diesel vehicles, since the risk of damage […]

When the passenger cars with diesel engines emerged, the popularity of diesel fuel has increased significantly. If earlier it was used mainly for construction and agricultural machinery, today, due to its technical characteristics, diesel fuel can be on par with gasoline. The parameters of diesel fuel are the criteria by which it is classified. They […]

Motor fuel is a petroleum product used to provide power for internal combustion engines. Its share in refined products is more than 65% of refined products. Motor fuel consists of various components, including the base part and special additives (antiknock, anticorrosive, etc.) Classification of motor fuel classification of motor fuel is based on a number […]
Continue ReadingClassification of furnace oil
Furnace oil is a product of direct distillation of secondary diesel oil fractions. Due to its excellent thermal properties and low cost it is widely used for heating of private houses and industrial buildings. Classification of furnace oil is based on several criteria According to its viscosity, heat transfer and pour point, the heating oil […]
Continue ReadingClassification of DGC
Distillate of gas condensate (DGC) is an associated product of natural gas distillation with secondary fractions added. It is used as a raw material for the chemical industry, an additive for gasoline production, fuel for diesel electric motors and as a solvent and fuel for certain types of lamps in everyday life. Classification of gas […]
