Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Technical Field
This invention relates to a liquid fuel additive which can improve the combustion performance of liquid fuel, especially when it is added into fuels such as gasoline and diesel.
2. Description of Related Art
In the use of liquid fuels for engines such as gasoline and diesel, a lot of harmful substances are often generated due to insufficient combustion, which has seriously polluted the living environment and endangers human health. At the same time, since the fuels like gasoline and diesel are non-renewable energy, energy conservation, environmental protection and pollution reduction has drawn the attention of many countries. Therefore, the conservation of fuel resources and the solution of exhaust emission pollution have become the hot technical issues people explore. This fuel additive is a new fuel-efficient product emerging in this context, which could promote the sufficient combustion of fuels, improve their utilization rate, reduce exhaust emission, mitigate the noise impacts and meet people's requirements on modern fuels; there are products which can stimulate the active ingredients of the fuel by adding salts into the fuel as a catalyst, however, the salts used are ionic compounds which can break into metal ions and acid anions in its solution. Although the electrovalent bonds generated by the electrostatic attraction between ions are relatively strong, the high temperature reached during fuel combustion will generate sufficient energy to destroy the bonds to release the metal ions and acid anions, and the acid anions will erode the metal parts, and there is always energy absorption when the chemical bonds are destroyed; therefore, the use of salt substances as catalysts will cause certain energy loss and shorten the service life of the equipment; there are also other technologies to stimulate the fuels and at the same time to reduce the toxic components by adding nano metal particles, however, these technologies are only to activate the active ingredients of the fuel, but not a fundamental solution to the massive emission of toxic carbon monoxide gas, due to the insufficient combustion of the fuels and a solution to improve the fuel utilization ratio by allowing the sufficient combustion of the fuels.

BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The purpose of this invention is to provide a fuel additive which could effectively improve the fuel combustion rate, reduce the polluting exhaust emission, clear the accumulated carbon and prolong the service life of equipment.
The technical scheme of this invention is as follows: a fuel additive, consisting of the components with the following weight percentages: nitrogen monoxide 1˜76%, hydrogen peroxide 20˜83%, ethylene 3˜66%, acetone 1˜64%, dichlorodifluoromethane 1˜60%, benzene 1˜60%, carbon tetrachloride 1˜60%, petroleum ether 1˜60%, butanone 1˜60%, ethanol 1˜60%, methanol 1˜60%, ethyl ether 1˜60%, nitryl oil 1˜60%, isopropanol 1˜60%, dichloromethane 1˜60%, toluene 1˜60%, acetonitrile 1˜89%, n-butanol 1˜76%, 2-butanol 1˜60%, tert-butanol 1˜89%, cyclohexane 1˜76%, diethyl ether 1˜90% and nitromethane 1˜76%.
The optimized weight percentages of the components for this invention are as follows: nitrogen monoxide 10%, hydrogen peroxide 30%, ethylene 10%, acetone 2%, dichlorodifluoromethane 2%, benzene 2%, carbon tetrachloride 2%, petroleum ether 2%, butanone 2%, ethanol 2%, methanol 2%, ethyl ether 2%, nitryl oil 2%, isopropanol 3%, dichloromethane 3%, toluene 4%, acetonitrile 2%, n-butanol 3%, 2-butanol 3%, tert-butanol 2%, cyclohexane 5%, diethyl ether 3% and nitromethane 2%.
The fuel additive of this invention is added and well mixed in the fuels as liquid. When being added, the volume ratio between the fuel additive and the fuel is 1:700˜1:60000.
The fuel additive of this invention uses more hydrogen peroxide as oxidizer, which enables the sufficient oxidation and combustion of the fuel, reduces the production of carbon monoxide gas, effectively improves the combustion rate of the fuel, reduces the emission of toxic carbon monoxide gas, prevents the erosion of equipment by metal ions, prolongs the service life of equipment and thus conserve the energy and reduce the pollution. At the same time, it could also clear the accumulated carbon in the valves, spark plugs and cylinders in the motors and engines;
The increase of octane value allows the combustion of more hydrogen in the fuels, and also the removal of water and vapor from the motor engines. It could also eliminate the knock of motor engines to enable the sufficient combustion of a small quantity of water; the nitrogen oxide will be thoroughly combusted to reduce the pollution; in winter, it can accelerate the starting and prevent the vapor lock in the fuel delivery pipes. According to the statistics of experiments, with the addition of this additive into the gasoline could increase the mileage by up to 8%˜21%.
The benefits of this invention compared to existing technologies include:
1. Clear the accumulated carbon in the valves, spark plugs, cylinders, flywheel ring gear and various motors.
2. Enable the sufficient combustion of gasoline or diesel.
3. Improve the octane value.
4. Remove the water and vapor in the motors.
5. Eliminate the “block” phenomenon in the motors.
6. Remove all the moisture in the cylinder.
7. Reduce the emission of nitrogen dioxide in the air.
8. Reduce the emission of nitrogen oxides from vehicles and dramatically decrease the air pollution of vehicle exhaust.
9. The motors using either gasoline or diesel could run more smoothly.
10. The motors using either gasoline or diesel could have their mileage increased by 1˜90% for the power of each cylinder.
11. It could be started more quickly in winter.
12. Prevent the air lock in the fuel pipes.
13. Each chemical component listed in this invention could be used independently or in combination with one or more than one of the components.
14. Without any damage or side effects on any metal parts of the motor.
15. This fuel additive applies to various motors using the fuels such as diesel or gasoline without any damage and side effects, for example: all the vehicles, all the boats and ships, all types of aircrafts, various military mechanical equipment (such as tanks, armored personnel carrier, aircraft carriers, and military jeeps).
