The diesel sample was separated into the saturate and aromatic fractions by means of solid-phase extraction (SPE), and each fraction was analyzed by GC/FID-EIMS. According to the relationship between boiling point and retention time of n-paraffins in the chromatogram, the percentages of saturates and aromatics at each temperature interval were calculated. According to the average mass spectra of the saturate and aromatic fractions at each temperature interval, the hydrocarbon types of the sample were identified through summation of characteristic mass fragments. Using this method, the changes in composition of diesel during hydrotreating process were studied. The results showed that hydrogenation of aromatics is the main reaction during the hydrotreating process. The more rings the aromatics have, the easier the hydrogenation reactions would take place. The aromatics were converted into cycloparaffins via the hydrogenation and saturation process, leading to an increase in low boiling point fractions in the hydrotreated oil.展开更多
