Description

Sistema para obtener una mayor eficiencia energética mediante la adición de ácido fórmico a las gasolinas y gasóleos.System to obtain greater efficiency energy by adding formic acid to gasoline and diesel

Antecedentes de la invenciónBackground of the invention

En el momento actual, uno de los graves problemas que se enfrenta el desarrollo global, es la dependencia de los combustibles fósiles, especialmente por el aumento de la demanda de los hidrocarburos por los países que han desarrollado su economía de forma notable, con crecimientos anuales superiores al diez por cien y un incremento continuo de su población, lo que augura mayor demanda de energía en el futuro.At the present time, one of the serious problems facing global development, is the dependence of fossil fuels, especially due to increased demand of hydrocarbons by countries that have developed their economy notably, with annual growth exceeding ten times one hundred and one continuous increase in its population, which augurs more energy demand in the future.

Las reservas de hidrocarburos, formadas durante millones de años, esta evaluada y en consecuencia partimos de una energía que esta limitada en el tiempo, por lo que es necesario aplazar el mayor tiempo posible el agotamiento de las mismas, a la espera de energías alternativas eficientes que puedan sustituir la dependencia de las energías basadas en los hidrocarburos.The hydrocarbon reserves, formed during million years, it is evaluated and consequently we start from a energy that is limited in time, so it is necessary defer the exhaustion of the same as long as possible, to the expects efficient alternative energies that can replace the dependence on hydrocarbon based energies.

La presente invención tiene por objeto añadir un aditivo a las gasolinas y gasóleos, para que aumentando su eficiencia energético en su combustión, permita aumentar la duración de las reservas de hidrocarburos en el tiempo y reducir el coste energético de los consumidores.The present invention aims to add a additive to gasoline and diesel, so that increasing its energy efficiency in combustion, increase the duration of hydrocarbon reserves over time and reduce the cost energy of consumers.

Como el ácido fórmico puede obtenerse tomando como materia prima el carbón, en lugar de los hidrocarburos, aunque ambas energías sean fósiles y no renovables, las reservas de carbón son muy superiores a las reservas de hidrocarburos y el valor y precio del carbón es muy inferior al precio de los hidrocarburos.How formic acid can be obtained by taking as raw material coal, instead of hydrocarbons, although both energies are fossil and non-renewable, coal reserves they are far superior to hydrocarbon reserves and the value and coal price is much lower than the price of hydrocarbons

Para ello, añadiremos a las gasolinas y gasóleos, ácido fórmico (H-COO-H) en la proporción ya estudiada, para formar una mezcla homogénea, que permita que la disolución gasolina y gasóleo, junto con el ácido fórmico, entren conjuntamente en el pistón del motor de combustión.To do this, we will add to the gasoline and diesel, formic acid (H-COO-H) in the proportion already studied, to form a homogeneous mixture, which allow the gasoline and diesel solution, along with the acid formically, enter the engine piston together combustion.

Objeto de la invenciónObject of the invention

La presente invención busca una mayor eficiencia energética en la combustión de las gasolinas y gasóleos, a los efectos de obtener un menor consumo de dichos hidrocarburos, pero manteniendo la misma potencia energética en la combustión. La adición del ácido fórmico a las gasolinas y gasóleos, lleva consigo un incremento de la temperatura en el interior del pistón lo que favorece la combustión de las gasolinas y gasóleos, necesitando menos combustible para realizar el mismo trabajo.The present invention seeks greater efficiency energy in the combustion of gasoline and diesel, to effects of obtaining lower consumption of these hydrocarbons, but maintaining the same energy power in combustion. The addition of formic acid to gasoline and diesel, carries with it an increase in the temperature inside the piston which favors the combustion of gasoline and diesel, needing Less fuel to do the same job.

En efecto, el ácido fórmico, (H-COO-H) a una temperatura de doscientos cincuenta grados centígrados se descompone térmicamente en H_{2} y CO_{2}. Dado que la temperatura que se alcanza en los pistones de los motores de combustión interna, es de cuatrocientos grados, la descomposición térmica del ácido fórmico, dentro del pistón, es instantánea, produciéndose hidrógeno por la descomposición térmica del mismo.Indeed, formic acid, (H-COO-H) at a temperature of two hundred and fifty degrees Celsius thermally decomposes in H2 and CO2. Since the temperature reached in the pistons of internal combustion engines, is four hundred degrees, the thermal decomposition of formic acid, within the piston, is instantaneous, producing hydrogen by the thermal decomposition of it.

El hidrógeno en su reacción con el oxígeno procedente del aire que ha entrado con la gasolina por los inyectores, reacciona produciendo una reacción exotérmica de primera magnitud, que aumenta la temperatura en el interior del pistón.Hydrogen in its reaction with oxygen coming from the air that has entered with gasoline through injectors, reacts producing an exothermic reaction of first magnitude, which increases the temperature inside the piston.

Los hidrocarburos que contienen las gasolinas y gasóleos, al elevarse la temperatura, combustionan mejor con el aire, aumentando la eficiencia energética en la fase de explosión del motor de combustión interna, por lo que necesitan menor cantidad de combustible para realizar el mismo trabajo.The hydrocarbons containing gasoline and diesel, when the temperature rises, they combustion better with the air, increasing energy efficiency in the explosion phase of the internal combustion engine, so they need less of fuel to do the same job.

Y esa descomposición térmica, lleva consigo la producción de hidrógeno.When passing the mixture to the engine piston, where a temperature of 400 degrees is reached, formic acid is thermally and instantly decomposes into H2 and CO2 (remember that formic acid decomposes at a temperature of two hundred and fifty degrees Celsius). And that decomposition thermal, carries with it the production of hydrogen.

Concluyendo de esta forma el "Sistema para obtener una mayor eficiencia energética mediante la adición de ácido fórmico, a las gasolinas y gasóleos".This rise in temperature causes the hydrocarbons that contain gasoline and diesel fuel to better combustion with air, increasing energy efficiency in the explosion phase of the internal combustion engine, so they need less fuel to perform the same job. Thus concluding the " System to obtain greater energy efficiency by adding formic acid, to gasoline and diesel ."
