Ocean-going ships burn heavy fuel oil. The combustion of heavy fuel oil in marine diesel engines emits nitrogen oxides, sulfur oxides, and particulates into the air. Growing public concern over air quality has led to increased scrutiny of heavy fuel oil as a source of air pollutants, with calls for greater regulation of its composition to safeguard...
Additive packages are used with aviation kerosenes to achieve performance enhancements, such as higher or lower operating temperatures or increased lubricity. An additive that is used to increase operating temperatures for heat sink applications is the +100 additive that is added to JP-8. As part of a large effort on the characterization of JP-8, w...
In this paper, we apply the composition explicit distillation curve method to mixtures of JP-8 with hydroprocessed aviation fuels made from camelina (a genus within the flowering plant family Brassicaceae), from castor seed (Ricinus communis), and from waste brown grease used with the Fischer–Tropsch process. For the camelina fuel, the departures (...

... Many works were published with the ADC apparatus where different samples were analyzed: aviation and aerospace fuels [10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18], diesels and surrogate diesel mixtures [19][20][21][22][23][24], alcohol mixture [25], gasoline [26,27], several ignitable fluids [28], crude oil [29], pyrolysis fuels [30,31] and other surrogate mixtures [32]. ...

... We have applied this metrology to many fluids, most of which are fuels. This work has included the study azeotropes [59], gasolines [41,53,58,60,61], aviation fuels [39,47,50,[62][63][64][65][66][67][68][69][70][71][72][73][74], diesel fuels [75][76][77][78][79][80][81][82][83][84][85], crude oils [54,55] and rocket propellants [39,[86][87][88][89]. We note that although the method has multiple features (corrosivity, enthalpy, etc.), it is not always necessary or desirable to apply all of them in every application. ...
