How to solve the problem of reduced diesel flash point?
Thread Content
:During the transportation of our company’s diesel to gas stations, its flash point often decreases, resulting in the fuel not meeting quality standards. The analysis indicates that issues such as the mixing of diesel and gasoline, as well as a small amount of leftover gasoline remaining after filling up the vehicle, lead to the presence of some gasoline in the mixture. At present, the company has a limited number of vehicles, so it’s not possible to completely eliminate this problem of mixed fuels… Does anyone have any suggestions? :handshake:handshake
There’s no advice I can give on this; it’s best to pack them separately in dedicated vehicles, but you mentioned that there are limited vehicles available.
It’s possible. After filling the tank with gasoline, there was a small amount of excess fuel left; on the way back, I opened those two caps slightly to allow the excess fuel to evaporate.
What remains after opening the lid and allowing it to evaporate can be dealt with by pushing some water onto the gasoline before loading it, and then using a steam tape to blow on it. Oil on top of water – you need to find a tank for storing contaminated oil to dispose of it in.
It can’t be evaporated; one can just use water to flush out the remaining gasoline, and then blow it away with a steam pipe inside the tank. The gasoline discharged by the water is sent to the light contamination oil tank
