An advanced diesel/gas oil blending system technology employed at Ruhr Oel GmbH's Gelsenkirchen-Horst refinery has improved blending operations and reduced costs in several important areas. In addition to a gasoline blending system Ruhr Oel has operated an on-line blending system for gas oil (diesel and light heating fuel oil) since December 1989 at it Gelsenkirchen-Horst refinery. Changing diesel fuel specifications in the U.S. and Europe will put more emphasis on such systems.
