The problem of long-term storage of fuel remains relevant for the sparsely populated and inaccessible regions of the Arctic and Priakticheskoy zones. To ensure the heating season, lasting 9-11 months, it is necessary to import diesel fuel during the summer period during navigation, since in winter there is no access to the regions of the North by land. By the decision of the government, large volumes of diesel fuel are imported under the programs for the provision of the northern and arctic regions, so 740 thousand tons of fuel was imported to the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) in 2020. This amount of fuel is not assimilated in one season and this fuel is stored in tanks. Where, during long-term storage, the quality of raw materials deteriorates. During long-term storage of fuel, depressants do not prevent fuel stratification. Therefore, together with a depressant additive, a paraffin dispersant is used; the composition of such additives includes mainly amides and imides of mono- and dicarboxylic acids. In this article, we have studied the effect of the Dewaxol depressant-dispersant additive on diesel fuel. Considered how at various concentrations and heating temperatures of the fuel, the cloud point decreases and sedimentation stability improves. As a result of the study, it was found that the best sedimentation stability is possessed by a fuel with a high content of a depressant-dispersant additive. In addition, fuel with an additive concentration of 0.1 wt% has the maximum depressant effect and heated to 60 °C.

“…(Table 7) According to the Ministry of Agriculture of the Russian Federation, the average price in Russia for summer diesel fuel as of 1 August 2018 amounted to EUR 0.421/ton. The next task was to determine the comparative effectiveness of the sale of sunflower oil and the production of biodiesel from rapeseed oil [50][51][52][53][54][55]. A comparative calculation is carried out on the basis of a conventional farm with an area of arable land of 1000 ha.…”

Agronomic and Economic Aspects of Biodiesel Production from Oilseeds: A Case Study in Russia, Middle Volga Region

et al. 2022

Emissions from fossil fuels are expected to increase in accordance with the global economy, which causes the development of alternative non-hydrocarbon sources in energy production. Biodiesel is one of the best options, among other sources, due to its low footprint. Russia does not have a smart policy of state support for biofuel production. The work objective was to determine whether it is necessary to develop equipment for biodiesel production, taking into account the structure of cultivated areas and available technologies; to calculate economic indicators of biodiesel production for agricultural needs; to compare the options for spring rape cultivation; as well as calculate the government support optimal level. As research methods, the authors used the apparatus of economic and mathematical modeling, and the method of absolute, relative and average values. Statistical tables are used to present the research results. Based on our study results, it is proven that the homemade biodiesel production by agricultural enterprises is economically justified. The equipment needed for its production was determined, the main economic indicators of the fuel production type and the optimal value of monetary and labor costs were calculated, and the gross and market biofuel values were obtained. The optimum level of government support for biofuel production in the Middle Volga region should be EUR 13.223 million, and the area planted with oil crops should be increased by 47.1 thousand ha.
