Executive Summary This report is an updated version of the 2014 Compendium of Experimental Cetane Number Data and presents a compilation of measured cetane numbers for pure chemical compounds. It includes all available single-compound cetane number data found in the scientific literature up until December 2016 as well as a number of previously unpublished values, most measured over the past decade at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory. This version of the compendium contains cetane values for 497 pure compounds, including 204 hydrocarbons and 293 oxygenates. One hundred seventy-five individual measurements are new to this version of the compendium, all of them collected using ASTM Method D6890, which utilizes an Ignition Quality Tester (IQT), a type of constant-volume combustion chamber. For many compounds, numerous measurements are included, often collected by different researchers using different methods. The text of this document is unchanged from the 2014 version, except for the numbers of compounds in Section 3.1; the appendices; Table 1, Primary Cetane Number Data Sources; and Table 2, Number of Measurements Included in Compendium. Cetane number is a relative ranking of a fuel’s autoignition characteristics for use in compression ignition engines. It is based on the amount of time between fuel injection and ignition, also known as ignition delay. The cetane number is typically measured either in a single-cylinder engine or a constant-volume combustion chamber. Values in the 2004 compendium derived from octane numbers have been removed and replaced with a brief analysis of the correlation between cetane numbers and octane numbers. The discussion on the accuracy and precision of the most commonly used methods for measuring cetane number has been expanded, and the data have been annotated extensively to provide additional information that will help the reader judge the relative reliability of individual results. v This report is available at no cost from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) at www.nrel.gov/publications.

Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) technique was conducted to analyze and identify the crude oil residues after biodegradation. AramcoS2 and AramcoS4 were able to reduce the concentration of long-chain n-alkanes of C10-C20 eciently on average by 77% of the original concentration.

  • Molecular Dynamics Simulation Studies of Physico of Liquid
    MD Simulation of Liquid Pentane Isomers Bull. Korean Chem. Soc. 1999, Vol. 20, No. 8 897 Molecular Dynamics Simulation Studies of Physico Chemical Properties of Liquid Pentane Isomers Seng Kue Lee and Song Hi Lee* Department of Chemistry, Kyungsung University, Pusan 608-736, Korea Received January 15, 1999 We have presented the thermodynamic, structural and dynamic properties of liquid pentane isomers - normal pentane, isopentane, and neopentane - using an expanded collapsed atomic model. The thermodynamic prop­ erties show that the intermolecular interactions become weaker as the molecular shape becomes more nearly spherical and the surface area decreases with branching. The structural properties are well predicted from the site-site radial, the average end-to-end distance, and the root-mean-squared radius of gyration distribution func­ tions. The dynamic properties are obtained from the time correlation functions - the mean square displacement (MSD), the velocity auto-correlation (VAC), the cosine (CAC), the stress (SAC), the pressure (PAC), and the heat flux auto-correlation (HFAC) functions - of liquid pentane isomers. Two self-diffusion coefficients of liq­ uid pentane isomers calculated from the MSD's via the Einstein equation and the VAC's via the Green-Kubo relation show the same trend but do not coincide with the branching effect on self-diffusion. The rotational re­ laxation time of liquid pentane isomers obtained from the CAC's decreases monotonously as branching increas­ es. Two kinds of viscosities of liquid pentane isomers calculated from the SAC and PAC functions via the Green-Kubo relation have the same trend compared with the experimental results. The thermal conductivity calculated from the HFAC increases as branching increases.

  • Renewable Diesel Fuel
    Renewable Diesel Fuel Robert McCormick and Teresa Alleman July 18, 2016 NREL is a national laboratory of the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, operated by the Alliance for Sustainable Energy, LLC. Renewable Diesel Fuel Nomenclature • Renewable diesel goes by many names: o Generic names – Hydrogenated esters and fatty acids (HEFA) diesel – Hydrogenation derived renewable diesel (HDRD) – Green diesel (colloquialism) o Company trademark names – Green Diesel™ (Honeywell/UOP) – NExBTL® (Neste) – SoladieselRD® (Solazyme) – Biofene® (Amyris) – HPR Diesel (Propel branded product) – REG-9000™/RHD • Not the same as biodiesel, may be improperly called second generation biodiesel, paraffinic biodiesel – but it is incorrect and misleading to refer to it as biodiesel 2 RD is a Very Broad Term • Renewable diesel (RD) is essentially any diesel fuel produced from a renewable feedstock that is predominantly hydrocarbon (not oxygenates) and meets the requirements for use in a diesel engine • Today almost all renewable diesel is produced from vegetable oil, animal fat, waste cooking oil, and algal oil o Paraffin/isoparaffin mixture, distribution of chain lengths • One producer ferments sugar to produce a hydrocarbon (Amyris – more economical to sell this hydrocarbon into other markets) o Single molecule isoparaffin product 3 RD and Biodiesel • Biodiesel is solely produced through esterification of fats/oils • RD can be produced through multiple processes o Hydrogenation (hydrotreating) of fats/oils/esters o Fermentation

The objective of this work was to examine fuel cells as a possible alternative to the diesel fuel engines currently used inrailway locomotives, thereby decreasing air emissions from the railway transportation sector. We have investigated the performance of a phosphoric acid fuel cell (PAFC) reactor, with n-hexadecane, C16H34 (a model compound for diesel fuel, cetane number = 100). This is the first extensive study reported in the literature in which n-hexadecane is used directly as the fuel. Measurements were made to obtain both polarization curves and time-on-stream results. Because deactivation was observed hydrogen polarization curves were measured before and after n-hexadecane experiments, to determine the extent of deactivation of the membrane electrode assembly (MEA).
