An additive composition for a diesel fuel, the additive composition comprising: a first additive comprising one or more of: the reaction product of a polycarboxylic acid having at least one tertiary amino group and a primary or secondary amine; the reaction product of an ?, ? dicarboxylic acid or a derivative thereof and a primary amine; and the reaction product of a polyamine and a fatty acid; and a second additive which is a terpolymer obtained by reacting monomers of: an ?-olefin; an ester of an unsaturated alcohol; and a third monomer different to (x) and (y) comprising an alkene functional group.

Disclosed are pour point depressants used in compositions and methods for achieving the cold flow properties of synthetic feedstock derived from plastic. A method of obtaining the synthetic feedstock is also disclosed, which includes heating plastic under substantially oxygen free conditions at a temperature of from about 400? C. to about 850? C. to produce a pyrolysis effluent, condensing the heated a pyrolysis effluent to obtain a synthetic feedstock, recovering the synthetic feedstock, and adding a pour point depressant to the synthetic feedstock to lower the pour point.

Systems and methods to provide renewable transportation fuels for internal combustion engines by converting renewable feedstocks into two or more intermediate hydrocarbon blend stocks and blending at least two of the two or more intermediate hydrocarbon blend stocks to produce the renewable transportation fuel. Methods and/or processes may include selecting sugar from a sugar source and introducing the sugar into one or more reactors. The sugar may be converted into an intermediate renewable hydrocarbon blend stock and sent to a separation unit to separate out an intermediate renewable gasoline unit. The process may include selecting and converting a lipid from a lipid source into a renewable diesel product. The renewable diesel product may be sent to a second separation unit to separate out renewable diesel and a low-grade naphtha. The low-grade naphtha and intermediate renewable gasoline may be blended to define a finished renewable gasoline.

The invention relates to polymer compositions with improved manageability. The invention also relates to a polymer composition obtainable by radical polymerisation of A) 95-40 wt. % of a monomer mixture comprising Ai) 65-98 wt. % of at least alkyl (meth)acrylate having a linear C.sub.16-C.sub.40 alkyl radical and Aii) 2-35 wt. % of at least one comonomer selected from (meth)acrylates and (meth)acrylamides, which supports an optionally substituted aromatic radical bonded via an alkylene, alkenylene, oxyalkylene or polyoxyalkylene group to the ester group of the (meth)acrylate or to the amide group of the (meth)acrylamide, in the presence of B) 5-60% by weight % of at least one ethylene copolymer. The invention further relates to a method for the preparation and use thereof as flow improvers for paraffin-containing hydrocarbon oils.

The present invention relates to novel uses of corrosion inhibitors in fuels and lubricants.

An additive composition improves the stability and the engine performances of gas oils, including gas oils of the non-road type in compliance with the decree of 10 Dec. 2010. The additive composition includes: at least one metal deactivator or chelating agent, at least one antioxidant of the hindered phenol type (alkylphenol), at least one dispersant and/or detergent, and at least one metal passivator, wherein the composition includes improved properties, in particular relative to the oxidation resistance, storage stability, thermal stability, reduction in fouling of the injectors, reduction in loss of power, reduction in the tendency of filters to clog.

The present invention describes a composition comprising at least one polyalkyl(meth)acrylate polymer having a number average molecular weight Mn of from 1000 to 10000 g/mol and a polydispersity Mw/Mn of from 1 to 8 and at least one ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer comprising units being derived from at least one alkyl (meth)acrylate having 1 to 30 carbon atoms in the alkyl residue. The composition is useful as cold flow improver in fossil fuel oil and or biodiesel fuel oil.

Systems and methods are provided for improving product yields and/or product quality during co-processing of fast pyrolysis oil in a fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) reaction environment. The systems and methods can allow for co-processing of an increased amount of fast pyrolysis oil while reducing or minimizing coke production for a feedstock including fast pyrolysis oil and a conventional FCC feed. The reducing or minimizing of coke production can be achieved in part by adding a low molecular weight, non-ionic surfactant to the mixture of fast pyrolysis oil and conventional FCC feed.

Mixtures of certain olefin-carboxylic acid copolymers (A) with at least one additive with detergent action, preferably at least one quaternary nitrogen compound (B), and optionally further fuel additives, are useful for improving or boosting the separation of water from fuel oils and gasoline fuels.
