Destruction of vanadium metalloporphyrin complexes in the action of γ radiation on petroleum or petroleum products

  • Published:
Chemistry and Technology of Fuels and Oils Aims and scope

Summary

  1. 1.

    The possibility of decomposing the vanadium-porphyrin complex by the action ofγ radiation on eastern petroleum or Bakinsk diesel fuel has been demonstrated.

  2. 2.

    The extent of decomposition of the vanadium-porphyrin complex as a function of radiation dose has been established. The optimum dose of radiation for eastern petroleum is 108 to 109 rads; and for Bakinsk diesel fuel it is 104 rads.

  3. 3.

    With increase in radiation dose the quantity of free radicals decreases.

  4. 4.

    The quantity of unsaturated compounds in Bakinsk diesel fuel increased with an increase in radiation dose, but the fractional composition did not change significantly.
