PROCESS FOR PRODUCING SYNTHETIC NAPHTHA FUEL AND SYNTHETIC NAPHTHA FUEL PRODUCED BY THAT PROCESS

摘要

The invention provides a process for the production of a synthetic naphtha fuel suitable for use in compression ignition (CI) engines, the process including at least the steps of hydrotreating at least a fraction of a Fischer- Tropsch (FT) synthesis reaction product of CO and H 2 , or a derivative thereof, hydrocracking at least a fraction of the FT synthesis product or a decorative thereof, and fractionating the process products to obtain a desired synthetic naphtha fuel characteristic. The invention also provides a synthetic naphtha fuel made by the process as well as a fuel composition and a Cloud Point depressant for a diesel containing fuel composition, said fuel composition and said depressant including the synthetic naphtha of the invention.
