How to separate accidentally mixed petrol/gasoline and diesel.
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 бер 2024
- Mixing wrong fuel in a fuel tank is a common problem. Fuel rescue service facilities often have containers filled with mixed fuel that can take up unnecessary space and become unusable. To solve this issue, a petrol (gasoline) separator is a must-have. With a small wrong fuel separation machine, the accidental fuel mix can be separated and reused again.
So, today's experiment is to recover diesel and petrol from an accidental fuel mix. But The mix will not be accidental; I will deliberately mix diesel and gasoline. Then, run the fuel separator and separate the mix.

wspaniała robota!!
Wielkie dzięki, cieszę się, że ci się podoba.
I think it would be easy to test the flash point of the diesel, just heat it slowly in a cup and put a flame above the liquid e.g. for every 10 degrees temperature rise and see when the vapor ignites. If you get the same flash point as for the virgin unmixed diesel, you know you've got rid of the light gasoline components.
When using diesel in a boat where the engine room is not well ventilated, I would make sure to have no low flash point liquids, otherwise it can go booooom.
Sure, also the composition can be controlled by tepmperature setting of the separator, increase temperature and ensure complete evaporation of petrol. Also for your info- the heaviest petrol fraction evaporates at 200c, so no way it will affect diesel at all.
Thanks, I pretty much always misfuel my car so this can save me a lot of money.
Sure this can help.
I think you're missing the true potential of this contraption
@@aliorr9356There are people who has an acsess to the mix and potential buyers, but do not have a technology, and someone with technology but with no acsess to either fuel or market, I am the second one.
@@santeryi9 You are right. Wherever I get the chance I bring mixed fules back to my workshop and i use it in various machines/engines that can handle it but i wuld benefit a lot of being able to separate the mixture. Thank you for a informative, no-nonsens/bs and interesting video!
Let people who doesent understand the value of free fule stay ignorant. The fewer with the knowhow to save thousands on fule eace year the more free fule for us, brothers :)
Cheers from a medium cold Sweden!
@@nilslindstrom8087 Thank you for sharing. I always try to find ways to get free fuel in any condition. I prefer using hydraulic fluid and thin petrol engine oil. The hydraulic fluid can be easily cleaned with a centrifuge and mixed with some diesel fuel to be used as is. Petrol car oil has no heavy additives, so it's easy to distill or restore.
I was hoping it was a small scale experiment where you can check whether anything in the fuel leaches out into the other fuel.
ie. The anti-waxing ingredient in the diesel leaches out into the petrol. Although the specific gravity maybe the same there maybe contaminants in either/both of the fuels.
Nice work anyway.
Thank you for your comment and interest. If you were closer to the fuel industry and knew everything that goes on there, you would not be surprised about the natural existence of transitional fractions in ready products sold at a gas station. This includes 3% of kerosene in petrol or thousands of tons of diesel accidentally mixed during transportation, which are then mixed as 10% fraction to the lower grade gasoline and sold normally.
Transportation tankers are not always flushed properly, which can cause issues. However, the machine allows for processing the fuel at the desired temperature and even making accents - focusing on either petrol or diesel. You can choose the temperature range to make your diesel thicker or petrol thinner.
I usually run the petrol thinner at a lower temperature of complete evaporation of the heaviest petrol fractions. Thus, my diesel still contains a bit of a kerosene-like fraction of petrol. I then either run it in my cars (one of which has already gone 450000km) or run it a second time at the desired temperature to get proper diesel. Bigger-sized machines separate the fuel precisely.
The separated fuel is often used to run a fuel rescue business transport, diesel heaters, generators, agricultural machinery, and used to flush fuel tanks of clients who confused the fuel at a station. I have built a lot of those units of commercial size, and they process thousands of liters of mixed fuel every day around the globe.
You used 95 octane?? I recognize that eco store sticker - you must be in Christchurch
North Canterbury. Ecostore (ex super shed) glassware yes.
Have you created special fuel for that beautiful motorcycle?
It's an electric scooter, and yes it has a solar fuel station, I will show in one of my next videos how I run oil centrifuge with solar power.
@@santeryi9 your humor is good my friend
Say I accidentally put a red dye in my diesel, I assume this would filter the dye out from the diesel?
No, this will separate petrol, and diesel will stay red, thogh I developed another system for dye removal: ua-cam.com/video/pCQB7Bu4lrY/v-deo.html

You can mix 15% diesel in a gasoline tank and still have the car drive normally. I would have just kept the mix and used it a number of times to top up after fill ups.
There could be a problem with modern high-compression engines, though. The diesel fraction may not burn completely and will be scraped by oil rings down the sump, thus increasing the oil level and thinning the oil, so check the level occasionally.
@@santeryi9 Even high compression gasoline engines are not close to the compression ratio of diesel engines. I have tried this myself and there is a distinct truck smell to the exhaust. Fuel economy is unaffected, i.e. not worse, so it does contribute.
@@Tore_Lund Yes is not affect the performance just diesel gets to the sump, older cars are fine, flathead's don't care at all
@@Tore_Lund it's to do with carburatted or injected engine, injected has much colder charge so diesel isn't evaporated properly while carburatted usually hotter so chewing the mix much better
@@santeryi9 I actually tried it in both a Renault and an Fiat, but they were both older throttle body single injector engines. I would imagine this would be difficult in a carbureted engine in winter?
Your recycling costs don't exceed the cost of the product, is it cost-effective?
Hi, this machine is for accidentally mixed diesel and petrol, the machine consumes 1.6kw of electricity per hour, which costs about $0.30. The unit can process up to 20L of mixed fuel per hour with a minimum cost of diesel, at $2.00 per Liter.
Let's say that 20L of fuel after separation will cost $40.00 per hour. The distiller can run 24/7 and potentially will do 480L per 24 hours, which will cost $960.00, and electricity will cost $7.2. Moreover, the separated fuel does not require any further treatment and can be used straight away, so it is more than cost-effective.
@@santeryi9 ok 👌
Сколько стоит такая установка, и может ли она перерабатывать обводненый нефтяной продукт, либо может быть есть какая нибудь установка для сепарации нефти?
@@Andrey-zj4wcДля обводнённого продукта нужна центрифуга, я буду выкладывать видео на днях именно с сепарацией обводнённого масла на центрифуге домашнего производства.
