Fuel Additives: Chemistry and Technology

By Robert D Tack

This book provides an understanding for anyone working in the petroleum industry on the materials they are (or should be) adding to fuels to enable them to meet specifications and avoid any of the myriad of problems that a fuel would cause if used without them. This book integrates petroleum fuel related problems that arise in the equipment consuming such fuels, with the fuels and additives designed to overcome these problems. This book integrates the needs to meet fuel legal specifications and practical problems with their technical nature and the additives needed.

As a wider interest the book includes a wide range of synthetic and mechanistic chemistry that pervades the wide range of fuel additives. Where of interest the relevant history is also covered as it provides explanations of why that particular application and additive has developed in that way.
