Abstract
An assessment was made for the impact resulted by the addition of (DO) and (DOA) on the octane number and Reid vapor pressure (RVP) of gasoline with different chemical compositions. The locally produced gasoline had been blended with three different ratios (v/v) of the additives, i.e. 8, 10 and 15%. The octane rating of gasoline was observed to continuous increased and linearly with the addition of (DO and DOA). The DOA-gasoline blends produced higher octane number. The two additives observed that decreased significantly the RVP and CV of the original fractions when blended with gasoline. However, additives were add in (8, 10, 15%vol) to gasoline blend, increasing RON was (0.9-23.9).
Highlights
Gasoline, called petrol or gas, is defined as a combination of volatile, flammable liquid hydrocarbons, derived from petroleum and used to internal combustion engines as fuel
Like other hydrocarbons, does not ignite in its liquid state, as it must first evaporate and mix with oxygen to ignite [2]. Where it is derived from oil, it is the most popular producer and forms the bulk of the product which got per barrel of crude oil [3]
The smaller combustion reduces carbon monoxide emissions in the exhaust gas. This means that the addition of olive oil with DIPE to gasoline is to reduce the CO2 that increases with the addition of DIPE alone to gasoline [16, 17]
Summary
Called petrol or gas, is defined as a combination of volatile, flammable liquid hydrocarbons, derived from petroleum and used to internal combustion engines as fuel. Another use of it as a solvent for fats and oils, originally a byproduct for petroleum industry (kerosene being the main product), gasoline became the favorite vehicle fuel because of its ability to mix readily with air in a carburetor and high energy of combustion [1]. Like other hydrocarbons, does not ignite in its liquid state, as it must first evaporate and mix with oxygen to ignite [2] Where it is derived from oil, it is the most popular producer and forms the bulk of the product which got per barrel of crude oil [3].
