How to remove heavy oil stains from liquefied petroleum gas?

2008-01-12View Original

Thread Content

A portion of the liquefied gas that our company handles is used as fuel for vehicles. As our company is located in the interior areas of the country, there may be issues related to refining equipment and technology; few local refineries are able to produce liquefied gas that meets the standards required for use in vehicles, and such gas is also expensive. Moreover, its quality is unstable, especially with regard to impurities. Over time, these impurities can accumulate inside the pressure regulators, blocking the gas supply and causing problems such as insufficient gas supply and difficulty starting the engine in cold weather. Since we don’t have our own refineries, we have to purchase the gas from nearby refineries, but the quality of the gas we obtain there is also unstable. Therefore, we are looking for ways to improve the quality of the gas we receive, mainly out of responsibility towards our customers – after all, drivers will complain if they have to use substandard gas for a long time. Our management attaches great importance to this issue. Does anyone have any good solutions? We’re willing to discuss the price, but it shouldn’t be too complicated, and of course, it shouldn’t be too high either. Quality comes first!!!! My QQ number is 782074525. If anyone has relevant expertise, please get in touch with me. Thank you!

We don’t have too much heavy residue in our liquefied gas oil, but it’s affecting its use as a vehicle fuel at the moment. If you have any information on this, could you show it to me to see if it makes sense? What negative effects can heavy oil generally have?

Liquefied gas cannot contain heavy oil when it leaves the factory; if such oil is present, it is due to contamination from the transport tankers during shipping!

If heavy oil cannot be present at the time of production, then what is the composition of the evaporative residues? What is the composition of the residue in household liquefied gas cylinders? I haven’t analyzed it yet, because we don’t have the equipment for that at the moment. Could you tell me the composition of the residues?

Liquefied gas should generally not contain heavy oil residues. If the liquefied gas produced has noticeable oil residues, it is likely due to problems in the operation of the equipment – too much liquid is being carried along with the liquefied gas, resulting in an excessive load on the equipment. Additionally, the storage tanks may not be cleaned regularly

The reason is this: we don’t refine oil on our own; at the moment, we just want to resolve this issue within our company
