1 ADDITIVES FOR FUELS & LUBRICANTS

2 OBJECT OF PETROLEUM INDUSTRY
To Provide Energy As Heat or Power Modern Engines are Designed to give maximum Power with Fuel Economy Improved Engine Design And Transmission require Matching Efforts by Petroleum Industry to provide Fuel and Lube of Desired Performance Level Fuel and Lube have to meet Stringent SPECIFICATIONS

3 WHY ADDITIVES ??? Additives have Unique Role to Play in Meeting Product Quality and Performance Level Additives Provide Economic and Easy Means a) of Improving Performance b) Controlling Quality during , Production, Distribution, and in Use Additives Play Key Roles in Formulations of Fuels And Lubes

4 WHAT IS ADDITIVE ? Additive is a Fine Chemical which Modifies the Characteristic of Refined Petroleum Fractions, thus Improve Performance Extend the Area of Application

5 FUNCTION OF AN ADDITIVE
Prevent Finished Product from Detoriation Protect Equipment Improve Performance Impart Property Not Already Present

6 ESSENTIAL CHARACTERISTICS OF ADDITIVES
Solubility in Base Stocks Low Volatility High Chemical Stability Compatibility-Synergistic /Antagonistic Acceptable Color and Odor Low Toxicity Should be Cheap Derived from Easily Available Raw Material Preferably Multifunctional

7 TYPES OF FUEL ADDITIVES (FUNCTIONAL POINT OF VIEW)
Ignition Control Additives - Antiknock Agents - Cetane Number Improver - Pre-ignition Additives Oxidation Inhibitor Metal Deactivator Enable To Meet the Specifications

8 TYPES OF FUEL ADDITIVES (FUNCTIONAL POINT OF VIEW)
Corrosion Inhibitor Anti - Icing Agents Anti - Static agents Detergent Additives Improve Performance Improve Vehicle Operation Reduce Fuel Consumption Reduce Exhaust Emission

9 ANTI-KNOCK AGENTS

10 Engine Knocking Leads To
What is Knocking Engine Knocking Leads To - Loss of Fuel Efficiency - Engine Over Heating - Damage to Piston Ring and Bearing ON/1

11 OCTANE NUMBER. Indication of Anti-knock Quality of
OCTANE NUMBER Indication of Anti-knock Quality of FUEL for Spark Ignition Engine Developed by Grahm Edger REFERENCE FUELS iso-Octane n- Heptane Proportion of iso-Octane (vol..%) in Standard Mixture Which Matches in Knocking Behavior with Test Fuel in CFR Engine ON /2

12 - Knocking is a Function of Both the. Engine and the Fuel
- Knocking is a Function of Both the Engine and the Fuel - For a Given Set of Engine Conditions Knocking is a MOLECULAR PROPERTY of the Fuel Quality - Anti-Knock Agents are Required to Improve the Octane Number of Gasoline in Spark Ignition Engine ON /3

13 ADDITIVE TYPES Most Popular and Most Effective are TEL and TML UNIQUE FEATURE OF LEAD ALKYLS - Effective in Minute Dosages - Good Response to All Types of Gasoline - Very Large Cost Effectiveness PROBLEMS WITH LEAD ALKYLS - Non Volatile Deposits (Mainly Oxides) on a) Combustion Chamber b) Spark Plug and c) Exhaust Line - LEAD POLUTION ON /4

14 OCTANE NUMBER OF HYDROCARBONS
N- Paraffin upto C4 Very Good n-Paraffin Beyond C4 Very Poor Iso-Paraffins High Cyclo-Paraffins Lower than iso- Paraffins Aromatics / Olefins High Higher proportions of olefins not tolerated because of storage stability and gum forming problems ON /4

Performance Index of Diesel Fuel REFERENCE FUEL CN n- Hexadecane -Methyl Naphthalene 0 2,2,4,4,6,8,8-Hepta Methyl Nonane (HMN) 15 CETANE No. = % Cetane ( % HMN)

19 HIGH CETANE VALUE REFLECTS DEPENDS ON Easy Start Smooth Burning
Low Piston Varnish DEPENDS ON Ignition Delay

20 IGNITION DELAY The Time Lag Between the Beginning of Fuel Injection and Beginning of Explosion. DEPENDS ON Hydrocarbon Type Present in the Fuel Paraffinic < Olefinic / Cyclo- Paraffinic < Aromatic Fuel

25 OXIDATION INHIBITOR

26 WHY ANTIOXIDENTS ARE NEEDED ???
On Prolong Storage Petroleum Fuels Undergo a Slow But Progressive Oxidative Degradation It Result in the Formation of Non-Volatile Gummy Residues Gum Formation is the End Product of Oxidation and Polymerization Reactions Involving Mainly Olefinic Constituents

27 EFFECT OF OXIDATION PRODUCTS
In IC Engines Choking of Intake System Plugging of Fuel Filters Operational Problems Engine Stalling Upsetting Air : Fuel Ratio Resulting in Power Loss And Poor Fuel Economy

28 EFFECT OF OXIDATION PRODUCTS
