Abstract: The present invention relates to the use, for improving the detergency properties of a liquid fuel composition comprising one or more detergent additives, of an additive consisting of one or more hydrocarbon compound(s) comprising from 2 to 10 carbon atoms and two hydroxyl functions. The present invention also relates to a method for improving the cleanliness of and/or for cleaning at least one inner portion of an internal combustion engine supplied with a liquid fuel comprising one or more detergent additives, wherein such a hydrocarbon compound is added to the fuel composition.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to novel anti-wear additives for diesel or biodiesel fuels having a sulphur content less than or equal to 500 ppm by mass. These novel additives will also improve the lacquering resistance of the higher-grade diesel or biodiesel fuels having a sulphur content less than or equal to 500 ppm by mass.

Abstract: Process for the production of paraxylene from a C8 aromatic feedstock that comprises the following stages: A stage for separation by adsorption in a simulated moving bed SMB that produces an extract that contains at least 95% paraxylene and at least one raffinate R that contains ethylbenzene, A recycling of raffinate to the SMB separation stage after isomerization, in which R is separated in membrane separation means to obtain a first fraction F1 that is relatively high in ethylbenzene, which is purged, and an additional fraction F2 that is relatively low in ethylbenzene, which is recycled to the SMB after a single isomerization, preferably in the liquid phase.

Abstract: This invention relates to the field of processes for membrane separation and applies in particular to the purification of C2 or C3 olefins. This process makes it possible more particularly to separate propylene from a mixture that contains other C3 hydrocarbons such as propane. The membranes that are used in the process according to this invention are vitreous polymer-based membranes whose pattern contains a bis-phenyl-9,9-fluorene group.

Abstract: Disclosed are additive compositions for superior quality diesel and biodiesel fuels for improving the lacquering resistance of fuels, in particular those intended for engines provided with Euro 4 to Euro 6 fuel injection systems. The additive compositions include at least one antioxidant of hindered phenol type and at least one metal passivator.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for membrane separation that makes it possible to separate linear hydrocarbons from branched hydrocarbons. The membrane that is used comprises a dense selective layer that consists of a polymer whose chemical structure contains at least one bis-phenyl-9,9-fluorene group.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a biodegradable lubricant composition, notably intended to be incorporated as an oil phase with high lubricating power in a drilling fluid or mud. This composition may be in a drilling fluid or as a fluid for fracture of underground formations. These muds or fluids contained in the composition of the present disclosure are particularly suitable for very deep drillings, offshore in deep water and/or sidetracked drillings or with a long shift.

Abstract: This invention describes a new hydrogen purification process that employs a combination of at least three membrane separation units. This process allows non-stationary operations and is particularly suitable for the production of hydrogen for the purpose of its use in a fuel cell.
