Definitions
- the present invention refers to a device to increase the efficiency of combustion, which is known as thermal oxidation reaction of fuel, and the reduction of combustion gases to the atmosphere that is installed in process equipment. and internal combustion engines that use fuel.
- Some inventors have presented equipment such as flame ionizers, catalysts in the combustion gases and catalysts before the burners to make combustion more efficient.
- magnets Another type of equipment that has been presented is magnets, these devices are placed on the fuel conduction pipe, however, satisfactory results have not been obtained according to the reports consulted.
- Some inventors have presented fuel-saving ionizers, they are magnetic devices that, as they mention, change the molecular configuration by undoing the lumps, aligning, ordering and separating the molecules, so that the oxygen flows freely between them to uniform combustion, but their results are not have been satisfactorily demonstrated according to consulted reports.
- Document MX/a/2017/017354 was found within the state of the art, which mentions a cylindrical device for treating fluids, comprising a casing, preferably brass, which contains a mixture comprising at least one mineral which is magnetite, a weak acid and at least one inert compound, preferably cellulosic.
- Said document refers to the electrochemical treatment of fluids, especially water, where the device mentions advantages, mainly in the reduction of corrosion and scale caused by water.
- This document also mentions advantages in the treatment of liquid fuels, however, it does not present specific data on efficiency in the consumption of said fuel. Therefore, said device is oriented to water treatment and not to fuels.
- the geometry and application is different from that of the present invention.
- Document EP 3 483 409 Al was also found, which refers to a device for optimizing the combustion of hydrocarbons by inducing vibration in the fuel particles.
- Said device is made up of a casing and an internal element arranged coaxially inside the casing through which the fuel passes.
- Said device is arranged between a tank and an internal combustion engine.
- the device described comprises, in its coaxial element, an ultrasonic generator which contains a plurality of piezoelectric elements and is made up of ferromagnetic metals and is supported by a soft iron element.
- the device described in the cited document mentions that the combustion optimization is carried out by means of the induction of ultrasonic vibration in the fuel particles. Said vibration is induced by piezoelectric elements that operate using electrical energy, which is why it presents a substantial difference with the present invention, which refers to a mixture of mineral materials contained in an internal element of the device.
- This system was developed by Ing. Bavaria and refers to the optimization of the energy performance of steam systems for corrugators, it requires the recovery of pressurized condensate with reinjection to the boiler at high temperature. As the condensates from all the cylinders and plates of a corrugator are purged at very high temperatures, the pressurized recovery of these condensates avoids their depressurization and their corresponding cooling (with flash steam production), this is the best option to optimize energy performance. and maximize fuel economy.
- the Baviera closed circuit pressurized condensate recovery system is designed based on more than 25 years of experience in this field.
- the Baviera condensate recovery system is located in the boiler room. It has a vertical tank calibrated at 18 bar, where the condensates are recovered under pressure and, more specifically, they are recovered at a pressure of 8 bar and a temperature of about 175°C. At the bottom of the tank, the KSB pump directly feeds the boiler with condensate at the temperature indicated above.
- the pump works with condensate at a very high temperature, its mechanical seal, which is far from the hydraulics and is cooled by fins that work at 50 °C, therefore, the working conditions of the mechanical seal are excellent and, in fact, It is a maintenance-free pump with a long average life.
- the catalytic converter is a component of the reciprocating internal combustion engine that serves to control and reduce the harmful gases expelled by the internal combustion engine.
- It consists of a ceramic mesh of longitudinal channels lined with noble materials such as Platinum, Rhodium and Palladium, located in the exhaust, before the silencer.
- Nitrogen oxides are dissociated into free Nitrogen (N 2 ), the main constituent of atmospheric air, and oxygen O 2 .
- the catalyst must be at a temperature of around 500 °C.
- Nitrogen (N 2 ) we breathe constantly, it forms about 80% of the air we breathe.
- Harmful gases depend on the composition of the mixture, ie the lambda factor. If the operation is with a rich mixture (excessive fuel in relation to the amount of air), unburned hydrocarbons appear. If it is with poor mixture (little fuel) nitrogen oxides are generated. In order for these harmful gases to be reduced to a minimum, there are several procedures. One is to try to make the ratio between the mass of air entering the cylinder approximately 14.7 times the mass of fuel, that is, for each part of fuel 14.7 parts of air enter, this relationship is known as stoichiometric, and coincides with the lambda factor equal to 1.
- the efficiency of the catalytic converter depends on the fuel/air ratio being as close to stoichiometric and that is why the efficiency of the catalytic converter depends on the correct operation of the lambda probe.
- the engine control unit takes care of this.
- Gas scrubbers or air pollution purification systems are used to simultaneously remove some particles and/or exhaust gases from industry streams by interception of a scrubbing liquid. They are also vapor and gas suction systems that are generated in various industrial processes.
- Additives for fuel saving, additives for cleaning injectors, additives for decarburizing the combustion chamber, additives for increasing engine power and additives for increasing octane in the case of gasoline and additives have been presented. for the increase of cetanes in the case of diesel.
- Reported savings range from 4% to 10%. This percentage of savings depends on the variables of the process, for internal combustion engines, they are the characteristics of the vehicles, such as weight, weight of the payload, mechanical conditions, operating route, traffic where the units travel; even the skills of the operators, unquestionably the quality of the fuels, whether gasoline or diesel.
- the dosage is carried out with a dosage system by means of a positive displacement pump and will depend on the additive/fuel ratio that each manufacturer or brand of additives indicate.
- a fuel is a material that can be burned, which is a chemical reaction between air and fuel, known as a thermal oxidation reaction to produce heat, energy or light.
- the most common fuels are those that come from oil and are usually called “fossil".
- These fuels are non-renewable and are composed mainly of carbon and hydrogen and are commonly known as "hydrocarbons" some of the hydrocarbons that have been used for the present invention include the following: natural gas, LP gas, gasoline, diesel, fuel oil, alternative fuel (compounds that include biodiesel, bioethanols, methanol, ethanol and butanol, recovered solid fuels, chemically stored electricity, fuel cells and batteries, hydrogen, non-fossil methane (biogas), non-fossil natural gas, oils vegetables, propane and other sources of biomass, solid fuels such as wood, recycled wood, cellulosic materials such as cellulosic waste, ignition pellets, plastic materials such as PVC, PVA, SBR, NBL, PET, synthetic
- Combustion refers to the chemical reaction that occurs between oxygen and an oxidizable material, commonly referred to as fuel.
- fuels are mainly made up of carbon and hydrogen, which react with oxygen in the environment to form combustion gases and chemical energy that is released because combustion is an exothermic reaction.
- the chemical energy released is normally used to raise the temperature of heating systems, to move a car or machinery, as well as to generate work by converting this chemical energy to mechanical energy.
- Combustion can be complete or incomplete. The latter generates a loss of energy because an incomplete reaction of carbon causes a lower formation of chemical energy, as can be seen in the following example:
- This incomplete carbon combustion reaction has less heat of combustion and also has pollutants such as carbon monoxide and unburned particles (C) as reaction products.
- Polluting products such as Carbon Monoxide (CO) and particles suspended in polluting gases are a problem for industrial processes as they increase equipment maintenance and reduce heat transfer; as well as cause environmental pollution.
- CO Carbon Monoxide
