Definitions

  • the present invention relates generally to fuel additives and method therefor.
  • the fuel is generally marked by a substance that can be detected, thereby identifying the source of the fuel.
  • a simple dyeing substance may be mixed with the fuel, thereby changing the color of the fuel and allowing the fuel to be identified according to the marked color.
  • the marking substance can emit light at an invisible wavelength, wherein the fuel is identified by measuring the emitted wavelength by an optical detector.
  • the fuel is marked with an organic compound whose presence is later detected by a spectrometer.
  • the present invention seeks to provide a novel fuel additive, as is described more in detail hereinbelow.
  • TBE tetrabromoethane
  • the fuel additive of the present invention may be added in small amounts to fuel, such as but not limited to, 1-10 ppm. This small amount does not affect the color or operative properties of the fuel.
  • fuel refers to any liquid hydrocarbon, including but not limited to, petroleum products either refined or unrefined, such as crude oil, naphtha, gasoline, diesel fuel, jet fuel, kerosene, propane, lubricant (e. g., engine oil), hydraulic fluid, natural gas (either in gaseous or liquefied form), and the like.
  • lubricant e. g., engine oil
  • hydraulic fluid e. g., natural gas (either in gaseous or liquefied form), and the like.
  • natural gas either in gaseous or liquefied form
  • An example of such an alkyl halide is tetrabromoethane (TBE) (C 2 H 2 Br 4 ).
  • alkyl halides which may be used to carry out the invention include but are not limited to: 1,1,2,2 tetrachloroethane (C 2 H 2 Cl 4 ), 1,1,2 trichloroethane (C 2 H 3 Cl 3 ), pentachloroethane (C 2 HCl 5 ), hexachloroethane (C 2 Cl 6 ), 1,2,4 trichloro cyclohexane (C 6 H 9 Cl 3 ), 1,2,4,5 tetrachloro cyclohexane (C 6 H 8 Cl 4 ), ethyliodide (C 2 H 5 I), ethylbromide (C 2 HsBr), dichloro 1,2 dibromoethane (C 2 H 2 Cl 2 Br 2 ), dichlorotribromoethane (C 2 HCl 2 Br 3 ), difluoro 1 chloroethane (C 2 H 3 F 2 Cl), difluoro 1,2 dibro
  • the fuel additive of the present invention is preferably immiscible in water.
  • One of the advantages of this property is that sometimes there is a water phase in fuels or in storage tanks, and the insolubility of the fuel additive in water means that the fuel additive remains in solution with the fuel and is not lost to the water phase.
  • the fuel additive of the present invention may create a large amount of free radicals. Free radicals lead to a smoother and more uniform temperature gradient and more complete combustion in the combustion chamber. In this manner, the fuel additive improves fuel consumption.
  • the fuel additive of the present invention may trap heavy metal ions present in petroleum-based fuels.
  • the trapped heavy metal ions then exit with the exhaust, instead of accumulating on the inner walls and surfaces of the combustion chamber.
  • the fuel additive has the synergistic effect of not only improving fuel consumption but also causing the combustion chamber to be cleaner, which in turn further improves fuel consumption.
  • the present invention is not bound or limited in any way to the above postulations of free radicals and trapping heavy metal ions. They are presented merely as a possible way of understanding how the fuel additive of the present invention improves performance of an internal combustion engine.
