Abstract

Mechanical power is obtained by distilling a crude petroleum oil to obtain a low boiling fraction having a final boiling point between 250 DEG and 430 DEG F. which is used to operate an engine capable of running on the fraction and wherein power and waste heat are produced, at least part of the waste heat being used to provide at least part of the heat necessary for the distillation. The process is especially suitable for use on board oil tankers, the crude cargo being used as the fuel precursor. The crude may be butanized, e.g. with 5-6% of added butane or used as obtained from the well. The engine used may be a diesel or oil-fired steam engine. A storage tank is provided between distillation and engine, if desired, or, with an oil-fired steam engine, the vapours may be passed direct to the burners. The combustion gases may be passed through heating coils in the distillation zone, or, if the fuel is used to operate a steam turbine, superheated steam can be used to provide the heat.
