Petroleum Products

Petroleum products are various products obtained from the processing of crude oil. They include various types of fuels and lubricants used in various sectors, including transportation, industry, and heating. The most demanded among them are diesel fuel and aviation kerosene.

Diesel Fuel: Diesel fuel is a type of fuel that is widely used in diesel engines for various means of transportation and equipment. Diesel fuel typically consists mainly of hydrocarbons, particularly paraffins and aromatic hydrocarbons. This makes it denser and more energy-dense than gasoline.

Key Features of Diesel Fuel:

• Diesel Engines: Diesel fuel is most commonly used in diesel engines, which are typically employed in trucks, buses, railway locomotives, ships, and many other forms of transportation. Diesel engines are known for their high efficiency and reliability.
• Economical: Diesel fuel typically has a higher thermal efficiency compared to gasoline, allowing diesel-powered vehicles to cover longer distances on a single tank.
• Industrial Applications: Diesel fuel is also widely used in industrial sectors such as construction and agriculture, where powerful equipment and machinery are required.
• Environmental Considerations: While diesel engines can be more fuel-efficient, they can also emit more pollutants, such as nitrogen oxides and particulate matter, making them less environmentally friendly compared to some alternatives.

It's important to note that the quality of diesel fuel can vary significantly depending on the region and supplier, and standards like EN 590 regulate its chemical composition and characteristics to ensure the reliable and safe operation of diesel engines.

Aviation Kerosene: Aviation kerosene is a type of fuel used in aircraft engines for heavy airplanes and helicopters. Aviation kerosene has a high cetane number, which ensures good autoignition capability in aviation turbojet and turboprop engines.

Key Features of Aviation Kerosene:

• Aircraft Engines: Aviation kerosene is used in aircraft engines employed in civil and military aviation. This includes turbojet engines for airplanes and helicopters.
• Quality and Safety: The quality of aviation kerosene is strictly controlled and regulated by standards such as Jet A, Jet A-1, and JP-8 to ensure the safety and reliability of aircraft engines.
• Environmental Considerations: Aviation kerosene is subject to stringent environmental standards and requirements to reduce emissions of harmful substances and minimize its impact on the environment.

Aviation kerosene plays a crucial role in both civil and military aviation, providing safe and efficient flights worldwide. It is a vital resource for aviation transportation and military strategy.
