Abstract

A fuel or fuel additive composed predominantly, on a weight basis, of hydrocarbons in the C9-C22 range, and including material boiling above and below 700 degrees F. At least about 50 % by weight of the material boiling above 700 degrees F. has been subjected to treatment with hydrogen to saturate at least a portion of any aromatics and/or other unsaturates. The fuel or fuel additive comprises at least about 99, at least about 99.3 or at least about 99.5 % by weight of normal- and/or iso-paraffins based on the total weight of hydrocarbons; has less than about 500, or less than about 200, or less than about 100, or less than about 50, or substantially zero ppm of unsaturates, based on the total weight of fuel or fuel additive; has a cetane number of at least about 70, at least about 74 or at least about 75; and contains less than about 1 ppm, less than about 750 ppb, less than about 500 ppb or less than about 300 ppb each of S and N, based on the total weight of fuel or fuel additive.
