Abstract:
A method of improving the combustion of a fuel by adding a catalyst or combustion enhancer at an extremely low concentration, preferably in the range of 1 part catalyst per 200 million parts fuel to 1 part catalyst per 6 trillion parts fuel. The catalyst or combustion enhancer may be selected from a wide range of soluble compounds. The method may comprise the steps of an initial mixing of the catalyst or enhancer with a suitable solvent and then subsequent dilution steps using solvents or fuel. Suitable solvents include water, MTBE, methylketone, methyisobutylketone, butanol, isopropyl alcohol and other hydrophilic/oleophilic compounds.

Abstract:
A fuel composition includes a lower alkyl monool(s) and C2-C6 esters of one or more long chain fatty acids. Generally, C, H and O atoms constitute at least 99.99% (by wt.) of the composition, and the composition can be essentially free of sulfur and/or nitrogen atoms. The composition can be provided by adjusting to less than 7.0 the pH of a liquid that contains at least one C2-C6 ester of one or more long chain fatty acids. The C2-C6 ester(s) can be provided by transesterifi-cation of a triglyceride-containing composition using a C2-C6 monool, which preferably is present in stoichiometric excess.
Abstract:
The present invention pertains to a liquid oxidizer of burner consisting of a hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and a dihydrogen monoxide (H2O, water) . Wherein the proportion of the H2O2 is 30˜100% and the proportion of the H2O is 0˜70%. Whereby, the oxidizer is added into the burner and is subjected to decomposition or catalysis by heating or a catalyst so that it could be transformed into heating steam and gaseous oxygen. Accordingly, the oxidizer possessing the high oxidization accelerates the burning speed of blazing wastes within the burner, and the wastes and firing would be efficiently burnt away. Therefore, the burning effect is advanced, and the emission of carbon monoxide, unburnt hydrocarbon (UHC), and pollutants are certainly decreased.

A process for preparing a paraffin inhibitor formulation comprising (a) preparing a mixture comprising a waxy paraffin inhibitor component having a melting point of >0° C. and an emulsifier component, wherein the mixture is prepared at a first temperature range above the melting point of the waxy paraffin inhibitor; (b) adding water to the mixture to produce an o/w emulsion; and (c) cooling the o/w emulsion to a temperature in a second temperature range which is below the melting point of the waxy paraffin inhibitor. The mixture prepared in step (a) may further comprise water to produce a w/o emulsion, the water being present in a proportion by weight that is lower than the sum of the proportions by weight of the paraffin inhibitor and the emulsifier component. The process may further comprise (d) adding an at least partially water-miscible organic solvent in which the paraffin inhibitor is insoluble.
