Additive applied to liquid fuels for internal combustion engines

Abstract

Additive applied to liquid fuels for internal combustion engines, represented by a solution in the liquid fuels such as kerosene; aviation kerosene, automotive gasoline, Diesel oil; Bio Diesel oil among others application field. This field is where this additive is anchored in the anhydrous ethyl alcohol (C2H5OH) component, which associated to a isopropyl alcohol (C3H8O) component, and also to the decahydronaphthalene (C10H18) component, becomes soluble to each of these fuels, ensuring thus that the same transmit less pollutant material to the environment.

Description

FIELD OF INVENTION[0001]The present patent application refers to an additive mixture, notably an additive mixture with ethanol basis, finding as application field every kind of liquid fuels, such as kerosene; aviation kerosene, automotive gasoline, Diesel oil; Bio Diesel oil among others.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Notably, this additive is different from everything ever seen on the technical state in terms of fuel additives, due to its uniqueness possibility of being added to every kind of liquid fuels without compromising their performance features.[0003]Furthermore, while it is applied to every kind of fuels for combustion engines, its use aggregates value under the economic and, specially, ecological optics, as it increases the vehicles and / or equipment range which operation starts to issue a reduced amount of pollutant material, helping thus in combating the environment depreciation.[0004]In addition, this additive represents a simple process of obtainment, based on the si...

Benefits of technology

[0027]Thus, the additive now claimed makes even more possible the use of Ethanol, causing these fuels issue less pollutant material in the environment, powering the measures aiming at the preservation of environment.

[0028]Furthermore, considering that ethanol presents low cost when compared with fuels derivate from petroleum, upon their mixture its possible to reduce the cost of these fuels, where kerosene, diesel oil, among others may have reduced prices, as it already occurs with gasoline, that receives, in Brazil, 25% of Ethanol addition.

Problems solved by technology

Transmission of pollutant material: the whole process of internal combustion has as collateral effect the transmission of pollutant material, notably a material released in the environment, where this transmission proved to be harmful only in great urban concentrations, where there is a greater concentration of industries and automotive vehicles.

However, while this development verified an uncontrolled expansion in the production of vehicles and equipment, the harmful effects of pollutant material transmission start to extrapolate the limits of the big cities to influence the whole Earth environment.

The Kyoto Protocol evidenced the danger of environment deterioration.

Restrictions to the use of ethanol (C2H5OH): unfortunately, the use of ethanol as additive has found a restrict perception field, the same may be added, especially to gasoline, without compromising the operating conditions of the engines using this kind of fuel.

As for the other fuels, kerosene and also the Diesel oil, its mixture becomes incipient and harmful due to a limitation of physical and chemical nature impeding the occurrence of an adequate mixture and homogenization between ethanol and such fuels (kerosene, Diesel, etc. . . . ).

Therefore, it is evidenced that the major limiting factor to the use of ethanol as additive in all kinds of fuels is its non-solubility before the fuels.
