Additional Notes (Wikipedia)Gasoline: ~ is a petroleum-derived liquid mixture, according to Wikipedia, primarily used as fuel in internal combustion engines. It is also used as a solvent, mainly known for its ability to dilute paints.
Gasoil: ~ refers to the process of distillation. The oil is heated, becomes gas and then decomposes.
Jet Fuel: ~ is a type of aviation fuel designed for use in aircraft powered by gas-turbine engines. It is clear to straw colored. It is a mixture of a large number of different hydrocarbons. The most common fuels are Jet A and Jet A-1 which are produced to an internationally standardized set of specifications. The only other Jet Fuel that is commonly used in civilian turbine engine-powered aviation is called Jet B and is used for its enhanced cold-weather performance.
Fuel Oil: ~ is a fraction obtained from petroleum distillation, either as a distillate or a residue. Broadly speaking, fuel oil is any liquid petroleum product that is burned in a furnace or boiler for the generation of heat or used in an engine for the generation of power, except oils having a flash point of approximately 40 degrees C (104 degrees F) and oils burned in cotton or wool-wick burners. In this sense, diesel is a type of fuel oil. Fuel oil is made of long hydrocarbon chains, particularly alkanes, cycloalkanes and aromatics. The term fuel oil is also used in a stricter sense to refer to the heaviest commercial fuel that can be obtained from crude oil, heavier than gasoline and naphtha.
Bitumen: ~ is a mixture of organic liquidsthat are highly viscous, black, sticky, entirely soluble in carbon disulfide, and composed primarily of highly condensed polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons; a tar-like form of petroleum, which is so thick and heavy, it must be heated and diluted before it will flow.
BLCO: ~ is the acronym for Bonny Light Crude Oil; a high grade Nigerian crude oil with high API gravity (low specific gravity), produced in the Niger-Delta Basin. BonnyLight Crude Oil is named after the prolific region around the city of Bonny. The very low sulfur content of BLCO makes it a highly desired grade for its low corrosiveness to refinery infrastructure and the lower environmental impact of its byproducts in refinery effluent.
