Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of a fuel composition comprising at least 85% by weight of one or more hydrocarbon fractions consisting of one or more hydrotreated vegetable oils, said fraction(s) having a distillation range between 100 and 400° C. and having a paraffin content greater than or equal to 90% by weight, for reducing the deposits present in the internal parts of a compression ignition engine (or diesel engine). The present invention also relates to a method for cleaning the deposits present in the internal parts of a compression ignition engine using such a composition.

Abstract: The subject matter of the present invention is a fuel composition which comprises —at least 85% by weight of one or more fractions of hydrocarbons having a distillation range within the range extending from 100 to 400° C. and having a paraffin content greater than or equal to 90% by weight; —at least a first additive consisting of a particular quaternary ammonium salt; and —at least a second additive consisting of a phenolic antioxidant. The subject matter of the invention is also the use of a composition of additives comprising said first and second additives, for improving at least one property of a paraffin-rich fuel composition.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a fuel composition comprising:—from 35% to 75% by weight of cyclopentane,—from 10% to 25% by weight of one or more aromatic hydrocarbon(s), and—up to 55% by weight of one or more branched alkane(s) chosen from 2-methylbutane and trimethylpentanes, with a weight ratio of the cyclopentane content to the aromatic hydrocarbon content greater than or equal to 2. The invention also relates to the use of such a composition for supplying a spark ignition engine, in particular for increasing the engine power and/or for reducing the specific fuel consumption of the engine and/or for increasing the octane number (RON).
