Abstract
A novel alternative fuel is described consisting of 10.0 to 50.0 % alkylated mono-cyclic alkanes, 50.0 to 90.0 % non-cyclic alkanes and common additives, e.g. lubricating additives. The aromatics content of the fuel is below 1.0 % and the content of di- and poly-naphthenics are also below 1.0 %. Fuel according to the invention is as energy rich as conventional diesel oil, counted both per litre and per kilogram. Engine effect and torque increase by most engine speeds and loads, and the fuel consumption decreases. The fuel gives decreased regulated and unregulated emissions compared with conventional diesel oil. Decreases in the exhausts by 70 to 95 % has been measured for some of the most toxic compounds in diesel exhausts, for example acrolein, 1,3-butadiene and benzene. Fuel according to the invention has been tested in field trials under both winter and summer conditions without any operational problems that could be connected to the fuel. Cold start of engines down to minus 35 degrees Celsius has been tested without any problems.

Process for upgrading biomass derived products

TL;DR: In this paper, a process for the alteration of the ratio of the specific gravities of the oil and water phases resulting from the conversion of biomass to liquid products, the reduction of the conductivity and of metals of the product mixture, which each can aid in the removal of solids contained in the oil phase, is described.
