Description

  The present invention relates to an ethyl-t-butyl ether blended gasoline composition useful in fields such as automobile fuel.

Due to the recent increase in awareness of environmental problems, a technique for blending gasoline with an oxygen-containing compound is drawing attention in order to reduce carbon monoxide in exhaust gas. Among these, gasoline blended with methyl-t-butyl ether (MTBE) is in the spotlight (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

  However, in the case of gasoline blended with MTBE, there is a concern about problems such as water pollution due to MTBE. Therefore, it has become necessary to study the blending of oxygen-containing compounds other than MTBE into gasoline.

  As an oxygen-containing compound other than MTBE, ethyl-t-butyl ether produced using biomass-derived ethanol as a raw material is conceivable from the viewpoint of suppressing global warming. Since the research method octane number of ethyl-t-butyl ether is 100 or more, the research method octane number of gasoline after blending can be increased by blending ethyl-t-butyl ether with ordinary gasoline.

  However, because the apparent research octane number (mixed research octane number = mixed RON) by blending ethyl-t-butyl ether differs depending on the base gasoline blended, the research method octane number of ethyl-t-butyl ether blended gasoline is accurately predicted in advance. However, it was difficult to obtain a sufficient research method octane number improvement effect of ethyl-t-butyl ether.

  The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and can accurately predict the research method octane number of a gasoline in which ethyl-t-butyl ether is blended with base gasoline, and has a sufficient research method octane number improvement effect. The object is to provide a gasoline composition that can be achieved.

The ETBRON represented by the formula is 109 or more, and based on the total amount of base gasoline, the content of normal paraffinic hydrocarbon is 1 to 25% by volume, the content of isoparaffinic hydrocarbon is 20 to 50% by volume, The olefinic hydrocarbon content is 1 to 30% by volume, and the aromatic hydrocarbon content is 1 to 50% by volume.

Research method octane number of gasoline composition after blending ethyl-t-butyl ether can be accurately predicted, and research method octane number improvement effect by blending ethyl-t-butyl ether can be maximized. .

[Example 3, Comparative Example 3]
The gasoline composition shown in Table 4 was prepared by using base gasoline 3 in Example 3 and base gasoline 7 in Comparative Example 3.

［実施例４、比較例４］
実施例４ではベースガソリン４、比較例４ではベースガソリン８を用い、表５に示すガソリン組成物を調製した。

[Example 4, Comparative Example 4]
The gasoline composition shown in Table 5 was prepared by using base gasoline 4 in Example 4 and base gasoline 8 in Comparative Example 4.

表２に示す通り、実施例１と比較例１とは、ベースガソリンのリサーチ法オクタン価が同程度であり、また、エチル−ｔ−ブチルエーテルとベースガソリンとの含有割合が同じであるが、実施例１の方がエチル−ｔ−ブチルエーテルによるリサーチ法オクタン価向上効果が高いことが分かる。

As shown in Table 2, Example 1 and Comparative Example 1 have similar base octane research method octane numbers and the same content ratio of ethyl-t-butyl ether and base gasoline. It can be seen that No. 1 is more effective in improving the octane number of the research method with ethyl-t-butyl ether.

  Similarly, from the results shown in Tables 3 to 5, in the comparison between Example 2 and Comparative Example 2, Example 3 and Comparative Example 3, Example 4 and Comparative Example 4, Examples 2, 3, and 4 were compared. It can be seen that the effect of improving the octane number by the research method with ethyl-t-butyl ether is high.
