Hazards identification General : Read and follow all Safety Data Sheets (SDS’S) before use. Read label before use. Keep out of reach of children. If medical advice is needed, have product container or label at hand. Close valve after each use and when empty. Use equipment rated for cylinder pressure. Do not open valve until connected to equipment prepared for use. Use a back flow preventative device in the piping. Use only equipment of compatible materials of construction. Always keep container in upright position. Approach suspected leak area with caution. Prevention : Never Put cylinders into unventilated areas of passenger vehicles. Obtain special instructions before use. Do not handle until all safety precautions have been read and understood. Use personal protective equipment as required. Wear protective gloves. Wear eye or face protection. Keep away from heat, sparks, open flames and hot surfaces. - No smoking. Use only outdoors or in a well-ventilated area. Avoid release to the environment. Do not breathe gas. Wash hands thoroughly after handling. Response : Collect spillage. Get medical attention if you feel unwell. IF exposed or concerned: Get medical attention.

First aid measures Description of necessary first aid measures Eye contact : Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water, occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Check for and remove any contact lenses. Continue to rinse for at least 10 minutes. Get medical attention. Inhalation : Remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. If it is suspected that fumes are still present, the rescuer should wear an appropriate mask or self-contained breathing apparatus. If not breathing, if breathing is irregular or if respiratory arrest occurs, provide artificial respiration or oxygen by trained personnel. It may be dangerous to the person providing aid to give mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. Get medical attention. If necessary, call a poison center or physician. If unconscious, place in recovery position and get medical attention immediately. Maintain an open airway. Loosen tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or waistband. Skin contact : Flush contaminated skin with plenty of water. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. To avoid the risk of static discharges and gas ignition, soak contaminated clothing thoroughly with water before removing it. Continue to rinse for at least 10 minutes. Get medical attention. In case of contact with liquid, warm frozen tissues slowly with lukewarm water and get medical attention. Do not rub affected area. Wash clothing before reuse. Clean shoes thoroughly before reuse. Ingestion : Remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. Get medical attention. If necessary, call a poison center or physician. Ingestion of liquid can cause burns similar to frostbite. If frostbite occurs, get medical attention. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. If unconscious, place in recovery position and get medical attention immediately. Maintain an open airway. Loosen tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or waistband.

Therefore, using natural gas (NG) in diesel engines can be a viable solution to reevaluate this type of engine and to prevent its disappearance from the automotive market, as it is a well-established technology in both energy and transportation fields. It is characterized by high performance and reliability. Nevertheless, further improvements are needed in terms of the optimization of combustion development, a more efficient oxidation, and a more efficient exploitation of gaseous fuel energy. To this aim, in this work, a CFD numerical methodology is described to simulate the processes that characterize combustion in a light-duty diesel engine in dual fuel mode by analyzing the effects of the changes in engine speed on the interaction between fluid-dynamics and Citation: De Robbio, R.; Cameretti, chemistry as well as when the diesel/natural gas ratio changes at constant injected diesel amount.

In the present work, extraction of fuUerenes from carbon soot by a number of aliphatic, alicyclic and aromatic solvents has been examined at a constant temperature of 60°C. The results indicate that the extraction power of aliphatic straight chain hydrocarbons increases with in- crease in carbon chain length. The aromatic solvents have superior extracting power as compared to the aliphatic solvents. The higher extraction power of the aromatic solvents is attributed to their better solubilising action. Based on the experimental data, it was possible to develop efficient procedures for the chromatographic separation of C60 and C70 employing cyclohexane and a normal paraffin hydro- carbon mixture with average carbon number of 12 as solvents. C60 and C70 could both be isolated completely in pure form in much smaller volumes of eluant than in the hexane system.

Rowley Department of Chemical Engineering, Brigham Young University, Provo, Utah 84602 ~Received 28 January 1997; accepted 17 March 1997! Nonequilibrium molecular dynamics ~NEMD! viscosity simulations of branched and linear alkanes at liquid densities were performed using both united-atom ~UA! and all-atom ~AA! intermolecular potential models in order to study the relative efficacy of the models in predicting fluid viscosity. Both models were used in conjunction with fixed bond lengths and bond angles, but different torsional potentials were investigated. The commonly used Ryckaert–Bellemans intermolecular potential model, which accurately predicts viscosities for short straight-chain alkanes, produced values for branched and long-chain alkanes that were significantly below experimental values. Likewise, a more complex UA model that uses transferrable site potentials and is commonly used to simulate thermodynamic properties also under predicted viscosities for branched and long-chain molecules.

  • Process Simulation of Alkylation of 1-Butene to Octane and Dodecane S
    Process Simulation of Alkylation of 1-Butene to Octane and Dodecane S. Aakash Subramanian and P. R. Naren* School of Chemical and Biotechnology, SASTRA Deemed University E-mail: [email protected], [email protected]* A. Background N-Octane is an alkane with the molecular formula C8H18. Octane is a component of gasoline (petrol). Octane is volatile and very flammable. N-Octane exists as liquid at room temperature with a boiling point of 125°C and a melting point of -57°C. N-Octane is insoluble in water [1]. N-Dodecane is also known as Dihexyl, Bihexyl, Adakane 12 or Duodecane. N-Dodecane is a liquid alkane hydrocarbon. It is an oily liquid of the paraffin series. N-Dodecane is used as solvent, distillation chaser and also as a scintillator component [2]. B. Description of Flow Sheet This flow sheet was adapted from Luyben (2009) [3]. The feed containing 67 mole percent of 1-Butene and 33 mole percent of Hydrogen was first pre-heated to a temperature of 475°C and then fed to an equilibrium reactor where reaction takes place at 3 bar pressure. The product stream from the reactor, containing N- Octane and unreacted 1-Butene and Hydrogen was cooled to 10°C at constant pressure and was fed to a gas-liquid separator. In the gas-liquid separator most of the Hydrogen present in the product stream was removed as vapor and the remaining product stream was obtained as liquid. The liquid stream was then split into two separate streams having equal mass flow rates. One stream was heated to 300°C at 3 bar pressure and was fed to another equilibrium reactor where N-Dodecane was obtained as product.

The pressure was set to 100 bar, whereas the target temperature depended on the specific run. The leap-frog integration algorithm was employed with a time step of 2 fs and periodic boundary conditions were applied in all directions. Electrostatic and Lennard-Jones interac- tions were evaluated with the particle mesh Ewald (PME) method,8,9 with a cutoff of 1:2 nm and a grid spacing of 0:15 nm.
