Sour crude oil is crude oil containing a high amount of the impurity sulfur. It is common to find crude oil containing some impurities. It is common to find crude oil containing some impurities. When the total sulfur level in the oil is more than 0.5% (by weight), the oil is called "sour".
The 4S pathway is a sulfur-specific metabolic pathway of oxidative desulfurization that converts dibenzothiophene (DBT) into 2-hydroxybiphenyl and sulfite.It uses a total of four NADH molecules (three required by DszD to generate FMNH 2 and a fourth to regenerate the FMN-oxide byproduct of DszA) and three molecules of oxygen, thus producing NAD + and water as byproducts.

Sour gas is natural gas or any other gas containing significant amounts of hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S). Natural gas is usually considered sour if there are more than 5.7 milligrams of H 2 S per cubic meter of natural gas, which is equivalent to approximately 4 ppm by volume under standard temperature and pressure.
Western Canadian Select (WCS) is a heavy sour blend of crude oil [1] that is one of North America's largest heavy crude oil streams [2] and, historically, its cheapest. [3] It was established in December 2004 as a new heavy oil stream by EnCana (now Cenovus), Canadian Natural Resources, Petro-Canada (now Suncor) and Talisman Energy (now Repsol Oil & Gas Canada). [4]
Diesel fuel has many colloquial names; most commonly, it is simply referred to as diesel.In the United Kingdom, diesel fuel for road use is commonly called diesel or sometimes white diesel if required to differentiate it from a reduced-tax agricultural-only product containing an identifying coloured dye known as red diesel.
Dubai Crude, also known as Fateh, is a heavy sour crude oil extracted from Dubai.It is produced in the Emirate of Dubai, part of the United Arab Emirates. [5] Dubai's only refinery, at Jebel Ali, takes condensates as feedstocks, and therefore all of Dubai's crude production is exported.
The EN 590 had been introduced along with the European emission standards.With each of its revisions the EN 590 had been adapted to lower the sulphur content of diesel fuel – since 2007 this is called ultra-low-sulphur diesel as the former function of sulphur as a lubricant is absent (and needs to be replaced by additives).
