Abstract

The physicochemical properties of a renewable diesel (RD) and several petroleum diesel (PD)–dominant diesels were examined to assess the feasibility of identifying and quantifying the presence of RD and biodiesel from PD and their blends. Relative to all PD-dominant diesels, the RD exhibited a lower density, a higher flash point, reduced evaporation loss and a comparable viscosity and water content. The studied RD contained a limited amount of aromatics, with aliphatic hydrocarbons predominantly within the C15 to C18 range. Most individual petroleum hydrocarbons were detected in the PD-dominant diesels, whereas the most abundant hydrocarbons for the RD were alkanes in the
