need the chemical composition of diesel composition, diesel, need, chemical

Hello everybody,

I have made my best effort to gather information regarding to the chemical composition of diesel, but without result now. I know the composition is different from plant to plant.I just need one or two as an example.

can someone give me some comment?

Review ASTM D 975, the standard specification for Diesel Fuel Oils.??This covers the physical properties of Diesel product.??Also review ASTM D396, the Standard Specification for Fuel Oils.

Crude oils vary widely in composition.??Diesel and kerosine are among the side draws from the first separation column in a refinery the atmospheric distillation tower.??Many compounds exist.??Look for crude oil distillation to find a range of compounds that in the Diesel range.??Also look for number 2 fuel oil.

Thanks JL Seaqull.

I need the chemical composition of the diesel, like the weight percent of butane,pentane, benzene,toluene,etc..the ASTM can't provid it.

Here's most of what you need,

I dont know if it helps but diesel is often given a cetane number the perfect diesel is supposed to have around the same carbon atoms and properties as cetane. Of course the perfect diesel doesnt exist but if you just want some rough and ready ideas you could use cetane.

Thanks all of you who concern my question. What I want to do is evaluate the diverse effects of the diesel to the environment. So I want to know the approximately compounds and their percentage in the diesel, after making clear every compound’s effect then, get the diesel’s effects to the environment. One or two sample as represent is enough for me. Is anybody know the chemical composition of diesel?

I suppose nobody will answer your question. What do you mean by diesel? If you are speaking about petroleum car diesel combustible you have to get some samples from several commercial distributors and analyse it in a laboratory in what it concerns contaminants, hydrocarbon content, and additives. Diesel composition as well as contaminants, are influenced by crude origin and varies from one crude mix to another.

Generally speaking Diesel fuels predominantly contain a mixture of C10 through C19 hydrocarbons, which include approximately 64% aliphatic hydrocarbons, l-2% olefin hydrocarbons, and 35% aromatic hydrocarbons in that proportions are included contaminants

This site specifically shows the component Cn distribution of No.2 diesel.

Thanks BigInch,the website shows the cetane number,heat combustion, etc.but no percentage of the compounds.
