The present invention relates to Compositions of fuels for transportation
are disclosed, particularly organic compositions which are liquid at
ambient conditions. More specifically, it relates to transportation fuels
comprising suitable organic distillates, as a predominant component, and
limited, but essential, amounts of a component comprising
oxygen-containing organic materials, which materials are typically
derived from natural petroleum. Beneficially, the oxygen content of these
transportation fuels is at least 0.02 percent by weight. Preferably the
oxygen content these transportation fuels is in a range from about 0.2
percent to about 10 percent by weight.
