<p>A process for preparing distillate fuel compositions from a C2-6 olefinic fraction and a C20+ fraction via molecular averaging is described. The fractions can be obtained, for example, from Fischer-Tropsch reactions, and/or obtained from the distillation or other processing of crude oil. Molecular averaging converts the fractions to a product that includes a significant fraction in the C5-20 range that can be used for preparing a distillate fuel composition. The product is preferably isomerized to increase the octane value and lower the pour, cloud and smoke point. The product can also be hydrotreated and/or blended with suitable additives for use as a distillate fuel composition.</p> |
