FUEL ADDITIVES Explore a complete and insightful review of fuel
additives In Fuel Additives: Chemistry and Technology, petroleum
industry chemist R. D. Tack delivers a comprehensive and practical
exploration of various types of fuel additives, the problems
they're meant to address, what they do, their chemistries and
preparations, and a discussion of how they work. The book
introduces and summarizes refinery operations to an extent that
discussions of fuels in the following chapters become easier to
understand. Then follow detailed descriptions of problems that
occur for reasons of the ways in which liquid petroleum fuels are
transported, stored, and used. In these discussions, their
applications to jet fuel, heating oils, gasoline, diesel fuels, and
bunker fuels are covered. Fuel Additives: Chemistry and Technology
also includes: A thorough overview of fuels, including discussions
of refinery operations and processes and the application of fuel
additives Aids to the transportation and storage of liquid
petroleum fuels: practical discussions of stabilizers against
oxidative degradation, drag reducers, static dissipators,
anti-foamants, demulsifiers, de-icers, and biocides Comprehensive
explorations of fuel detergents, including their chemistries and
proposals to their mechanisms of action In-depth examinations of
cold flow improvers, with detailed descriptions of the waxing
problems that they solve Combustion improvers that improve the
efficiencies of fuel combustion in engines, burners, and
particulate filters--while also reducing emissions Additives that
protect metal surfaces against wear, by providing lubricity, and
corrosion Perfect for chemists working in the petroleum industry,
Fuel Additives: Chemistry and Technology will also earn a place in
the libraries of professionals working in related areas and seeking
a quick understanding of topics such as oxidative stability,
corrosion, or wax crystallization since 1974.
