It has been suggested that renewable energy sources be considered as replacements for middle distillate ground transportation and marine fuels. It is vital for the operational considerations of these fuels to investigate the many positives and negati

Instability, incompatibility, phase separation, or sludge-sediment formation are all terms that denote fuel degradation. Middle distillate fuels continue to have significant instability problems. Specific chemical reaction pathways that initiate the

The current ASTM (D5304) procedure for determining storage stability involves rather drastic conditions, namely, 16 hours at 90°C and under 100 psig of oxygen. These mandated test conditions give rise to the question, “Does the reaction conditions

The use of bio-derived materials both as fuels and/or as blending stocks becomes more attractive as the price of middle distillate fuels, especially home heating oil, continues to rise. Historically, many biomass and agricultural derived materials ha

The quantity of gasoline and middle distillate fuels in transit and storage makes these fuels the most common hydrocarbon contaminants in groundwater. Groundwater can be contaminated by hydrocarbons from surface spills, transportation accidents, leak

Pyridine compounds have been found in significant concentration in middle distillate fuels. These compounds have been implicated in fuel instability reactions and could also be involved in color body formation. Few pyridine compounds are commercially

Incompatibility reactions in middle distillate fuels can be ascribed to the presence of specific polar heteroatomic compounds or species containing oxygen, sulfur, and nitrogen. It has been proposed that the observed sediment and/or gum formation res

The current military surplus of napalm should be viewed as an energy source rather than as hazardous waste. The energy content of this resource is too valuable to waste. There are at present significant problems to be overcome both scientifically and

Nitrogen compounds present in crude sources constitute serious problems both for producers and consumers. For producers, these compounds are responsible for poisoning catalysts during the refining processes. For consumers, these compounds are respons

The large quantity of napalm that is currently being treated as hazardous waste represents a viable energy resource that is too valuable to waste. However, there are significant problems to be overcome before this material can be used as an energy so
