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.SUB.2, OR A DERIVATIVE THEREOF, HYDROCRACKING AT LEAST A FRACTION OF THE FT SYNTHESIS PRODUCT OR A DERIVATIVE THEREOF, AND FRACTIONATING THEPROCESS 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.
