winterized diesel — the No.2 diesel has been treated with additives by the diesel supplier. As the treatment with additives (1:40000 [40]) is a cheaper way to enhance No.2 fuel in winter, most stations offer winterized diesel in cold weather conditions. In regions with colder weather, most gas stations offer No.1 fuel at the same pump ...
This fuel is commonly known as diesel no. 1, kerosene, and jet fuel. Former names include: coal oil, stove oil, and range oil. [7] Number 2 fuel oil is a distillate home heating oil. [8] Trucks and some cars use similar diesel no. 2 with a cetane number limit describing the ignition quality of the fuel. Both are typically obtained from the ...
Sale of Grade 1 diesel is optional at retail outlets. Grade 2, also known as GASOIL COMUN (common diesel fuel), is intended for the bulk of diesel fuelled vehicles. Grade 2 diesel fuel is available with 2 different sulfur levels depending on the population density of the location where it is retailed. Grade 3 diesel fuel, also known as GASOIL ...

In Europe, diesel cetane numbers were set at a minimum of 38 in 1994 and 40 in 2000. The standard for diesel sold in European Union, Iceland, Norway and Switzerland is defined by standard EN 590. Since 1 January 2001 EN 590 demands a minimum cetane index of 46 and a minimum cetane number of 51. Premium diesel fuel can have a cetane number as ...
Distillate was withdrawn from the market as cheaper and higher-grade gasoline and diesel fuels reached the markets. In time, "distillate" came to describe lighter fractions of diesel and fuel oil , with "No. 1 distillate" and "No. 2 distillate" referring to the lighter fractions of both products, albeit with different characteristics between ...
2 (NH 2) 2 CO + 4 NO + O 2 → 4 N 2 + 4 H 2 O + 2 CO 2 and 4 (NH 2) 2 CO + 6 NO 2 → 7 N 2 + 8 H 2 O + 4 CO 2 and (NH 2) 2 CO + NO + NO 2 → 2 N 2 + 2 H 2 O + CO 2. The ratio between NO 2 and NO determines which reactions take place and how fast. The highest conversion rates are achieved if equal amounts of NO 2 and NO are present ...
