Abstract
The paper deals with the analysis of the components of diesel fuel and the review of their exposure to the processes of aerobic oxidation. The composition was specified via chromato-mass spectrometry. It was defined that the composition of diesel fuel consists of 55.74 % aliphatic, 5.04 % oleophilic, 12.79 % naphthenic, 8.32 % aromatic, 9.52 % naphteno-aromatic hydrocarbons. Moreover, the fuel contains a small quantity of heteroatomic components, metal-complex compounds, steroids and the products of partial component oxidation as well. Considering the specified composition, the paper reviews the oxidation stability of diesel fuel. It was defined that the diesel fuel almost does not oxidize to 120 оС temperature. Obtained data may be significant for both the professionals dealing with selection of fuel by seasons and petroleum chemistry specialists to obtain valuable compounds using diesel fuel as a raw.
