Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
92 words
A blended hydrocarbon fuel oil comprising an untreated distillate oil having a pour point of about -21° to 30° F combined with a hydrodewaxed oil produced by hydrodewaxing a high pour hydrocarbon distillate having a pour point greater than about 30° F with a ZSM-5 type catalyst under a hydrogen pressure of about 100 to 1500 p.s.i.g., at a space velocity of about 0.5 to 10 L.H.S.V., and at a temperature of about 500° F to about 850° F, said hydrodewaxed oil having a pour point higher than said untreated distillate oil.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
92 words
A blended hydrocarbon fuel oil comprising an untreated distillate oil having a pour point of about -21° to 30° F combined with a hydrodewaxed oil produced by hydrodewaxing a high pour hydrocarbon distillate having a pour point greater than about 30° F with a ZSM-5 type catalyst under a hydrogen pressure of about 100 to 1500 p.s.i.g., at a space velocity of about 0.5 to 10 L.H.S.V., and at a temperature of about 500° F to about 850° F, said hydrodewaxed oil having a pour point higher than said untreated distillate oil.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
16 words
The blended hydrocarbon fuel oil claimed in claim 1, wherein said ZSM-5 type catalyst is ZSM-5.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
40 words
The blended hydrocarbon fuel oil claimed in claim 2 wherein said untreated distillate oil has an end point of about 550° to 750° F, and said high pour hydrocarbon distillate has an end point of about 600° to 900° F.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
27 words
The blended hydrocarbon fuel oil claimed in claim 1 wherein said untreated distillate oil and said high pour hydrocarbon distillate are both distilled from the same stock.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
24 words
The blended hydrocarbon fuel oil claimed in claim 2 wherein said hydrodewaxed oil constitutes from about 10 to 70 volume percent of said blend.
