PRODUCTION OF STABLE OLEFINIC FISCHER TROPSCH FUELS WITH MINIMUM HYDROGEN CONSUMPTION

摘要

The present invention relates to a stable, low sulfur, olefinic distillate fuel blend component derived from a Fischer-Tropsch process and a process for producing this stable, low sulfur, olefinic distillate fuel blend component. The stable, low sulfur, olefinic distillate fuel comprises olefins in an amount of 2 to 80 weight percent, non-olefins in an amount of 20 to 98 weight percent wherein the non-olefins are predominantly paraffins, oxygenates in an amount of less than 1 weight percent, and sulfur in an amount of less than 10 ppm peroxides after storage at 60°C for four weeks.
