Distillate fuel is a type of fuel used for internal-combustion vehicles with either mechanical transmissions or electric transmissions. They are used in automobiles, locomotives and agricultural machinery as well as space heaters and power generators.

01. Heavy fuel oi Heavy Fuel Oil (HFO) is a category of fuel oils of a tar-like consistency identified as a “worse case substance”. Also known as bunker fuel or residual fuel oil, HFO is the result or remnant from the distillation and cracking process of crude oil. For this reason, HFO is contaminated with several different compounds including aromatics, sulfur and nitrogen, making emission upon combustion more polluting compared to other fuel oils. 02. Residuum Is a type of aviation fuel designed for use in aircraft powered by gas-turbine engines. It is colorless to straw-colored in appearance. The most used fuels for commercial aviation are Jet A and Jet A-1, which are produced to a standardized international specification. The only other jet fuel commonly used in civilian turbine-engine powered aviation is Jet B, which is used for its enhanced cold-weather performance. Jet fuel is a mixture of a variety of hydrocarbons. Because the exact composition of jet fuel varies widely based on petroleum source, it is impossible to define jet fuel as a ratio of specific hydrocarbons. Jet fuel is therefore defined as a performance specification rather than a chemical compound. 03. WAX DResidue Wax, which is more popularly known as Foots Oil is a by-product of petroleum. Residue Wax is derived from the production of Semi Refined Paraffin Wax. Its application lies in the rubber industry, plastic industry, polish industry, matchbox industry and more. 04. Asphalt/Bitumen Asphalt is produced in a plant that heats, dries and mixes aggregate, bitumen and sand into a composite mix. It is then applied through a paving machine on site as a solid material at a nominated or required thickness, relative to the end use. Asphalt results in a smoother and more durable asphalt road surface than a bitumen-sealed road. Bitumen is a binding agent produced from petroleum. Bitumen is known for being strongly adhesive and resistant to damage from water and oil spills. This makes bitumen the ideal binder for asphalt because asphalt is commonly used as a surface for roads, car parks and driveways. Bitumen can be produced to different specifications depending on how it’s going to be used but, in all cases, bitumen is created by distilling crude oil. This process removes the lighter liquid and leaves a thick sticky substance that, in the case of asphalt, will hold heavy aggregate like stones and gravel with sand. Bitumen can also be confused with tar, which is another binding agent that when mixed with aggregate, makes tarmac. Bitumen is the liquid binder that holds asphalt together. The term bitumen is often mistakenly used to describe asphalt. A bitumen-sealed road has a layer of bitumen sprayed and then covered with an aggregate. This is then repeated to give a two-coat seal. 05. Lubricating Oils Lubricating oil is a class of refined products used to reduce friction and wear between bearing meta.
