Description
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Growth in environmental concerns related to pollutants generated by hydrocarbon based fuels, especially emissions related to greenhouse gases, has given raise to the need to find new fuels and methods of combustion capable of reducing such emissions, namely carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide (NxO), NOx, methane, ozone, CFC's, halons and similar gases. Increases of nitrous oxide gases occurring post exhaust catalyst have recently been discovered. Similar to CFC's, nitrous oxides are about a 1000 times more potent than CO2 in their adverse effect. It has been found the effect of the exhaust catalyst, itself, may actually tend to increase the concentrations of nitrous oxides. Thus, there is a current need to reduce overall nitrous oxide emissions and additionally find a means reducing the effect the exhaust catalyst has upon increasing said emissions.


International Patent Applications, PCT/US95/02691, PCT/US95/06758, and PCT/US96/09653, incorporated in their entirety herein by reference, speak to a new form of combustion known as metallic vapor combustion, wherein combustion does not take place on the surface of the metal, or on and/or within the molten layer of oxide covering the metal, typical of heretofore metallic combustion. Rather, combustion is characterized as being highly, with a luminous reaction zone extending some distance from the metal's surface or the normal flame front, at a high burning rate, wherein metallic oxide particles are formed in the submicron range.


This is a highly expansive brillant type of combustion, where for example the laminar flame of a Bunsen burner shows an extended luminous zone to extend beyond the boundary of the normal flame front. This combustion yields vastly accelerated flame/exhaust gas velocities compared to traditional combustion, in turn generating greater amounts of useable free energy.


Said PCT Applications disclose fuel compositions and combustion techniques achieving vapor phase combustion based on an enhanced combustion structure (“ECS”), which incorporates a free radical generating oxygenate compound(“ECS oxygenate”) and a high energy combustible non-lead metallic, preferably an “ECS metallic” containing ECS structure. Applicant's metallic together with an ECS compound yield vapor phase combustion. In the aforementioned Applications and herein metallic shall mean at least one non-leaded element or derivative organic or inorganic compound containing said non-lead element, selected from the group consisting of 1A, 2A, 3B, 4B, 5B, 6B, 7B, 8, IB, 2B, 3A, 4A, 5A, 6A, or 7A elements of the Periodic Chart of Elements (CAS version), and mixture, wherein said element or derivative compound, is combustible, and optionally has a minimum heating value of 4,000 Kcal/kg, and wherein vapor phase combustion occurs. As noted, in the aforementioned Applications and herein, an ECS metallic is a metallic capable of increasing burning velocity and/or reducing combustion temperature. It is any non-lead metallic (or non-metallic) which may be employed in the practice of this invention. Said metallic may be employed with hydrogen or a hydrocarbon fuel, absent an ECS compound.


As set forth herein “ECS metallic” can be read as any non-lead metallic (and non-metallic as set forth below), or any organic or inorganic derivative thereof, which accomplishes the vapor phase combustion object of this invention. As set forth in the disclosure below ECS metallic contemplates any metallic or non-metallic accomplishing this object. An ECS metallic need not contain ECS structure (e.g. high kinetic energy free radicals), albeit said ECS structure is preferred. A “non-lead element or derivative” herein shall also be read as “ECS metallic.”


It is noted, a principal ECS metallic of the aforementioned PCT applications was manganese, chiefly methylcyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl. Due to recent concerns over the neurotoxicity of manganese combustion products, and the potential neurotoxicity of other combustion metal oxides, a need exists to find a high energy, non-manganese, non-neurotoxic replacement ECS metallic or group of metallics capable of achieving vapor phase combustion.


EXAMPLE A

A fuel composition containing hydrogen or a hydrocarbon fuel and at least one organic or inorganic compound containing a non-lead element, selected from the group consisting of 1A, 2A, 3B, 4B, 5B, 6B, 7B, 8, IB, 2B, 3A, 4A, 5A, 6A, or 7A elements of the Periodic Chart of Elements (CAS version), wherein said non-lead derivative compound simultaneously increases combustion burning velocity and/or reduces combustion temperature, wherein said composition is improved over the hydrogen or the co-fuel alone; optionally showing improved thermal efficiency. Said composition optionally containing an ECS oxygenate.


As noted, in the aforementioned Applications, Applicant has discovered, under these his combustion conditions, the metallic, itself, becomes an integral and powerful agent in the combustion process, improving combustion thermal efficiencies, translating into improved fuel economy, net available, work, power generation, thrust, and the like (e.g. increased miles/gal. (kilometers/liter), increased flight range/Kg, increased kilowatts generated/liter), while simultaneously reducing hazardous pollutants.


In the context of this invention, Applicant generally refers to thermal efficiency in both its chemical and mechanical context, e.g. the efficiency of the chemical reaction and the amount of useful work generated in the system, e.g. free energy.


Applicant has found, thermal efficiency, particularly as measured as a function of net useful work generated by the system is increased. Often substantially.


For example, Applicant's has discovered thermal efficiency improvements over existing unadjusted fuels and combustion systems to be on the order of 0.5%, 1.0%, 2.0%, 3.0%, 4.0%, 5.0% to 20%. And, depending upon the circumstances (e.g. combustion systems, fuel configurations) average improvements can range from 2.0% to 5.0%, 5.0% to 10.0% or higher, withmodest improvements ranging from 0.05% to 1.0% to 2.0%. Exceptional improvements will range from 10%, 25% to 40%, 30% to 80%, or more.


In the context of this invention “unadjusted” fuels mean conventional existing hydrocarbon fuels concurrent to this invention, which have not been adjusted to improve burning velocity, increase latent heats of vaporization, T-90 temperatures, mid range distillation temperatures, aromatic or sulfur contents. These value are variously set forth herein and to the extent they are known in the industry incorporated herein by reference.


EXAMPLE B

The compositions of Example A, containing hydrogen or a hydrocarbon, wherein said composition's burning velocity and/or combustion temperature permit said non-lead derivative compound to replace need for an ECS compound, however, said composition experiencing luminous vapor phase combustion.


EXAMPLE C

The aforementioned compositions, wherein said non-lead derivative is a sodium, potassium, phosphorous, boron, or silicon derivative, including mixture.


EXAMPLE D

The aforementioned composition, wherein said non-lead derivative is trimethoxymethylsilane or homologue, analogue, isomer or derivative.


The aforementioned PCT Applications speak to the use of symmetrical alkyl carbonates (e.g. dimethyl carbonate “DMC”) as a preferred ECS oxygenate, which the art discloses as having potential hydrolytic or stability problems when in an acidic or aqueous environments. See for example, EPO Application #91306278.2 Karas, which reasonably suggests fuels containing a symmetrical diakyl-carbonate, like DMC, which have pH's perhaps 11 or lower, as being potentially problematic. Thus, there is a need to mitigate this potential fuel stability problem.


Additionally, the use of less expensive longer chain or more complex, viscous fuels, e.g., heavy oils, heavy fuel oils, diesels, etc., have attendant handling, emission and combustion problems, which warrant solution, especially if solved simultaneously with the above related problems.


SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The instant invention resides in an improvement to the aforementioned PCT Applications, and simultaneously solves the noted problems. Namely, the invention reduces combustion greenhouse gases of C02, NOx, ozone, methane, and problematic chlororfluorocarbons and nitrous oxides. The invention, is particularly able to control and reduce NOx emissions generated post exhaust emissions catalyst.


The invention also beneficially improves a broad class of combustion systems and emissions in general, while simultaneously improving fuel economy, flight range, thrust and/or power.


The invention more particularly relates to discovery of a class of non-manganese, non-toxic ECS metal and metalloid compounds, including a combination thereof, capable of achieving vapor phase combustion, but which do not have manganese's associated neurotoxicity problem. Metallics of particular interest include alkali/alkali earth metals, sodium, potassium, boron, aluminum, silicon and phosphorus.


The invention resides in the combination of metallics, metalloids (herein after nonlead element compounds “NLEC's” ) which include combining an ECS metallic with and ECS co-combustion metal, metalloid, or carbon catalyst structurally similar to triemethoxymethylsilane or dimethyl-phosphite. Said catalyst is contemplated in combination with Applicant's ECS metallics to improve vapor phase burning, achieving the objects of this invention.


The invention further resides in discovery of a means of maintaining stability of fuels containing symmetrical lower dialkyl carbonates, while simultaneously improving the handling of fuels containing alkali/alkali earth metals, which can be highly alkaline. In accordance therewith, the fuel compositions of the present invention exhibits improved stability and handling attributes when the fuel compositions are constructed to a weakly alkaline (7.5 to 11.0 pH), substantially neutral (6.5 to 7.5 pH), or slightly acidic (4.5 to 6.9 pH) environments, whether or not water is present. In such cases there is no handling hazard or hydrolysis problem. Thus, in the case of symmetrical lower dialkyl carbonate containing fuels, long term storage is possible absent any deterioration of stability. Likewise the handling hazards of strongly alkaline compositions due to the presence of alkaline or alkaline earth metals is additionally controlled.


Additionally, it has been discovered the presence of lower dialkyl carbonates and ECS metals in the fuel compositions of the present invention allow for the use of highly viscous base hydrocarbon fuels, which otherwise might not be used.

Applicant's ECS oxygenated compounds which include one to ten oxygen atoms are desireable, with to one to three oxygen atoms more desirable. If organic, those oxygenated compounds having carbon atoms of one to 20 atoms are desireable, with one to ten more desireable, with one to five being yet more preferred. Those with three atoms or less are most preferred. Compounds where oxygen represents 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, or more, by weight are desired. Specific oxygenated compounds can be found in detail in Organic Chemistry 6th Ed, T. W. G. Solomons, John Wiley & Sons, N.Y., (1995), Physical Chemistry, 5th Ed, P. W. Atkins, Oxford University Press, U.K. (1994), Physical Organic Chemistry, 2 Ed, N. S. Issacs, John Wiley & Sons, N.Y. (1995) and Lanqe's Handbook of Chemistry, 14th Ed, J. A. Dean, McGraw-Hill, N.Y. (1992).

Applicant's ECS oxygenated compounds may be included in weight percent of the final composition in that amount, which results in optimal vapor phase combustion. Concentrations ranging from 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.1, 2.2, 2.5, 2.7, 3.1, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 3.7, 4.0, 4.5, 5.0 percent weight by oxygen are contemplated. Other oxygen concentrations range from 0.01 to 3.7, 0.1 to 80.0, 1.0 to 5.0, 1.0 to 10.0, 1.0 to 15.0, 1.0 to 20.0, 1.0 to 30.0, 1.0 to 40.0, 1.0 to 53 percent oxygen by weight in the composition.


Preferred ECS structure/components (e.g. oxygenates, metallics, and hydrocarbon base, if any) are characterized as those yielding in precombustion a significant portion of reactive high kinetic energy free radicals (e.g. H, H2, O, 00, CO, F, F2, F3, N, B, Be, BO, B2, BF, AL ALO, CH3, NH3, CH, C2H2, C2H5, Li, KO, KOO, ONH, ON, NH, NH2, OCH3, OCH,OCH2, OH, Cl, CN, OCOO, COOH, C2H5OOC, CH3CO, OCH20, OCHCO, or CONH2), as a weight percent of their total precombustion vapors. Thus, components containing one or more of these radicals is desired. Preferred weight percent contributed by the substituent is equal to or greater than 2%, 5%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, of the precombustion vapors. Similarly Applicant 's ECS compounds should contain one or more radicals of same structure.


The preferred reactive high kinetic energy free radicals of this invention are those radicals that generate laminar bunsen flame velocities in excess of 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 70, 75, 80, 90 or more, cm/sec, (laminar bunsen burner flame with methanol at a 57.2 cm/sec bench mark), more preferably in excess of 50, 60, 65, or 70 cm/sec., and ideally those having at least one free or unused valency electron; said ideal radical is characterized as being a chain carrier in the main chain reaction of combustion, effectively disassociating and re-associating during combustion. As used herein flame velocity or propagation is the art definition, which can be defined as the volumetric velocity of the stream of the combustible mixture divided by the surface of the inner cone of a laminar Bunsen flame. As contemplated herein and in the examples below, said noted flame velocities (for ECS compound) may be translated to the finished fuels themselves (e.g. finished fuels may have a burning velocity of 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 70, 75, 80, 90 or more, cm/sec. As contemplated herein, these laminar flames values are measured using the internal angle of the Bunsen flame, which are parallel to the external vertical (flowing) flame wall to the peak of the flame head, thus compensating for the luminous zone, which masks the normal outer edge and peak of the flame head of the flame which may also be used to measure flame velocities (see FIG. 1).


Thus, the preferred ECS oxygenates, metallics, and/or hydrocarbon bases, if any, have higher relative flame velocities. As a rule, when combusted in air (as a function of their own constitution and as measured in a laminar Bunsen flame), flame velocities should equal or exceed 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60, 61, 62, 65, 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 100, 110, 120, 130, 140, 150 cm/sec., with those exceeding 40, 41, 42, 43, 45, 47, or more, preferred. The higher the burning velocity the better. It is recognized individual ECS oxygenates may have higher burning velocities than individual metallics, compared to hydrocarbon base fuels. However, ESC oxygenate/metallic combinations should have synergistic laminar burning velocities preferably exceeding 48, 50, 55, 60, 65, 70, or more cm/sec.



FIG. 1



FIG. 1 shows the method of calculating laminar burning'1 velocity (LHV or BV) employing a Bunsen Burner, and the differences seen between a conventional (clear), fuel flame compared to a luminous flame. Burning velocity is calculated as ½ Sin of the interior angle (θ) at the head of the flame (times) the gas velocity (VG), or BV.


Laminar Flame Velocity (LFV) and Burning Velocity (BV) are interchangeable terms herein. In the case of luminous flames, 0 measurements (the angle found at the flame peak) are made inside below the luminous portion of the flame (see FIG. 1).


BV calculations may be adjusted for temperature and pressure. Higher pressures reduce measurable BVs while higher temperatures increase them. As provided herein, BV values herein are those that would be equivalent to those with methanol being benchmarked at 57:2 cm/sec.


Preferred latent heats of vaporization of ECS components (e.g. oxygenates, metallics, and/or hydrocarbon bases) at 60° F. are those equal to or greater than 60, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95, 100, 1,05, 110, 115, 120, 125, 130, 135, 140, 145, 150, 155, 150, 160, 165, 170, 180, 190, 200, 210, 220, 230, 240, 250, 270, 290, 300, 325, 350, 375, 400, 425, 450, 475, 500 btu/lb, or more. Those greater than 100, 115 btu/lb are more desireable. Alternatively, preferred latent heats of vaporization (enthalpy of vaporization at boiling point) equal to or greater than 21, 22, 23, 24, 26, 27, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 40, 42, 43, 45, 47, or higher, jK mole−1 are desireable, with those' no less than 28.0 jK mole−1, more desireable. The higher the latent heat of vaporatization the better. It is an embodiment of this invention to employ hydrocarbon bases having enhanced LHV's (see below).


The ECS non-lead metals, metalloids, non-metals (herein “metals or metallics”) are those which are combustible and which having high heating value, exceeding 2,000 to 6,000, 6,500, 7,000, 7,500, 8,000, 8,500, 9,000, 9,500, 10,000, 10,500, 11,000, 12,000, or more, Kcal/kg, and which contain at least one element selected from the group consisting of aluminum, boron, bromine, bismuth, beryllium, calcium, cesium, chromium, cobalt, copper, francium, gallium, germanium, iodine, iron, indium, lithium, magnesium, manganese, molybdenum, nickel, niobium, phosphorus, potassium, palladium, rubidium, sodium, tin, zinc, praseodymium, rhenium, silicon, vanadium, strontium, barium, radium, scandium, yttrium, lanthanum, actinium, cerium, thorium, titanium, zirconium, hafnium, praseodymium, protactinium, tantalum, neodymium, uranium, tungsten, promethium, neptunium, samarium, plutonium, ruthenium, osmium, europium, americium, rhodium, iridium, gadolinium, curium, platinum, terbium, berkelium, silver, gold, dysprosiutn, californium, cadmium, mercury, holmium, titanium, erbium, thulium, arsenic, antimony, ytterbium, selenium, tellurium, polonium, lutetium, astatine, mixture thereof, including organic and inorganic derivatives thereof (as set forth in more detail below).


The preferred metals herein have oxides whose heats of formation are negative, and should be equal or exceed (e.g. be more negative) about −10,000 to −75,000 calories/mole. More preferred are those equal or exceeding −100,000 to −400,000 gr calories/mole, and greater (more negative). Simple oxides containing one or two oxygens may have heats of formation equal or exceeding −50,000 to −200,000, or greater, calories/mole are acceptable.


Vapor Phase Combustion


This invention contemplates a vapor phase form/method of combusting a metallic, wherein said method comprises: introducing kinetic free radicals having enhanced combustion structure (ECS) into a combustion chamber; igniting and combusting a flammable metallic or metal compound in presence of said free radicals at temperature below said metal's oxide boiling point and preferably above said metal or metallic compound's boiling point; combusting said metal wherein accelerated burning occurs, as evidenced by a brilliant luminous reaction zone extending some distance from the metal 's surface; wherein metallic oxide particles resulting from combustion are in submicron range and/or remain in a gaseous state.


The composition's ingredients and proportions are tailored to accomplish this objective. Varying compositions and ingredients will necessarily yield differing results. However, in the claims below providing for vapor phase combustion, the ingredients and ranges are at a minimum optimized/arranged to achieve this result.


Non-Toxic ECS Metals


It is an object of this invention to eliminate neurotoxic manganese or other hazardous metal oxides of combustion, including concentrations thereof deemed to be toxic. It is a principal object of this invention to use metals and metal combinations, whose combustion product, oxides, carbonates, etc., are relatively non-toxic and absent neurotocity.


However, it is expressly recognized differing metals, and metallic blends yield different combustion products. Differing ECS metallic applications will results in different combustion products. In some applications and compositions the metal combustion products generated may be toxic. Yet in other compositions, and/or applications, the same metallic or metallics may elicit essentially non-toxic combustion products.


Thus, it is expressly contemplated differing applications of the same metal, or differing metals acting together in combustion may produce non-toxic combustion products, while in other circumstances would produce toxic combustion products.


It is contemplated certain risk metals generating potentially toxic combustion products may be employed in applications where risk is acceptable, e.g. advanced jet, rocket, or outer space applications. Thus, metallics hazardous on earth could be employed in space.


It is also contemplated manganese containing metallic may be included in small concentrations in a mixture with non-manganese metallics. For example, methylcyclopentadienylmanganese tricarbonyl may be added in small concentrations, perhaps as an anti-knock enhancer in the case of gasoline. It may be included in other fuels as well.


In the practice of this invention alkali/alkali earth metals, whose metal oxides are non-toxic are preferred. Particularly preferred metals include lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium, magnesium, and calcium. More preferred are lithium, sodium, potassium and magnesium.


Other non-lead, non-manganese metals, whose combustion product is moderately to relatively non-toxic, and desireable in the practice of this invention, include: aluminum, boron, bismuth, cerium, gallium, lithium, potassium, sodium, phosphorus, sodium, magnesium, sulfur, chlorine, indium, iron, copper, zinc, silicon, iodine, cobalt, molybdenum, nitrogen, praseodymium, rhenium, rubidium, fluorine, tin, titanium, chromium, selenium, vanadium, boron, nickel, niobium, germanium, ytterbium, yttrium, zirconium. Blends of these metals, including their derivative compounds are contemplated.


However, slightly more desirable metals include: aluminum, boron, bismuth, calcium, cerium, cesium, gallium, lithium, potassium, sodium, magnesium, iron, copper, zinc, silicon, indium, molybdenum, nitrogen, potassium, praseodymium, rhenium, rubidium, tin, titanium, selenium, boron, germanium, ytterbium, yttrium, zirconium.


Even more desirable are aluminum, lithium, potassium, sodium, boron, potassium, magnesium, silicon, nitrogen, selenium, boron, and germanium.


It is an embodiment of this invention to substitute Applicant s non-toxic metallics for Mn in the aforementioned PCT Applications.


Tests


Applicant conducted a series of horse power (HP) tests employing an air cooled honda 75 cc, four stroke engine, rated at 2 horse power on a DYNOJET MODEL 100 DYNAMOMETER and found increases in HP above the engine's rate HP for certain compositions. Increased HP is an indication that the fuel would also show improvements in emissions, fuel economy, thrust, flight range, and the like, if measured. For purpose of this test only HP was measured. Certain test fuels required blending agents.


The tests were conducted to show changes in rated horse power due only to changes in fuel composition. For purpose of the test the bike's gasoline tank was disconnected. Tests measurements were performed after the engine had been warmed up. After each test fuel, the carburetor was drained of excess fuel and flushed to avoid fuel contamination.


After warm up, the test procedure included bringing the warmed bike to a stop (while engine operating) , ●then shifting the bike into first gear and engaging the transmission and rear wheel on the dynamometer, with operator upon the bike. After shifting into second gear, the dynamometer was activated and the throttle was immediately opened to “wide open.” The bike operated under full throttle until it reached a speed of about 30 mph (in second gear), when the test was terminated. Below are example fuels where improvement is indicated.

Co-Combustion Agent/Catalyst


As evident in the tests above, it has been found the combustion activity employing Applicant's ECS oxygenated compounds and metallics is unexpectedly improved by the combination of a co-combustion catalyst, such as trimethoxymethylsilane or dimethyl-phosphite.


As contemplated in the claims hereto, co-combustion agents may serve a multiple role, including acting as a stabilizing agents. As set forth in greater detail below TMMS and other co-catalysts acts in combination with certain beneficial components to stabilize the fuel composition. Thus, as set forth herein a co-combustion catalyst can serve as a stabilizing agent.


The co-combustion catalyst (combustion co-catalyst) is a combustible compound generally having a structure of M-rn, wherein M is a metal, metalloid, or non-metal. Selected M include, but are not limited to, carbon, silicon, germanium, tin, boron, aluminum, gallium, indium, nitrogen, phosphorus, arsenic, antinomy, bismuth, sulfur, and wherein r is either an alkyloxy, hydroxy, oxy, or carboxyl radical, and wherein n is the number up to the number of valence electrons of M or the total possible number of radicals available.


If n is greater than one, then r1, r2, etc., may be a heterogeneous or homogenous, an alkyloxy, nitro, or other radical, including an alkyl or aryl radical. If n is greater than 1, one or more r may be alkyl or cyclomatic radicals may be substituted. However, compounds with at least one alkyloxy, hydroxy, oxy, or carboxyl radical are desired. Compounds containing a blend of alkyl or alkyloxy, hydroxy, oxy, carboxyl radicals are contemplated. Thus, alkyloxymetallics and polyalkyloxymetallics are expressly contemplated.


If r is greater than one, then one or more r may be substituted for direct or indirectly connected ring systems, for example r1 may be a phenyl radical connected directly, or indirectly connected through an alkyl group to M, where r2, r3, etc., may be an alkyloxy or alkyl radical. Likewise, when more than one r may be substituted for sulfur, nitrogen, chlorine, fluorine, or other metal, metalloid or non-metal of this invention.


Preferred co-combustion catalysts have one or more alkyloxy, carboxyl, oxy, or hydroxy radicals. More preferred catalysts have one or more alkyloxy, oxy, carboxyl, hydroxy, radicals, and at least one alkyl radical. A ring system radical may be substituted for the alkyl radical.

pH Modification


A desirable pH range of the fuel composition of the present invention, particularly when DMC is employed, is from approximately 4.5 to approximately 10.5, with a more desirable pH range of from approximately 4.5 to approximately 9.5. An even more desireable pH range is from approximately 4.5 to 9.0. Another highly preferred pH range is from approximately 5.5. to 8.0. A preferred pH range is from approximately 4.5 to approximately 6.5. The most preferred pH range for the fuel composition of the present invention is from approximately 6.3 to approximately 6.8. It is an object of this invention to keep pH as close to neutral as possible, such that if alkaline, it is only weakly alkaline (i.e., preferably equal or less than 11.0, 10.5, 10.0, 9.5, 9.0, 8.5, 8.0 pH), but that it preferably be either substantially neutral (i.e., 6.5 to 7.5) or slightly acidic (6.3 to 6.9 pH).


When the pH of the fuel composition of the present invention is less than 11.0, preferably 10.5 or below, 9.5 or below, and more preferably 8.5 or below, the fuel, whether anhydrous or hydrous, may be stored at ambient temperature (65° F.) and as high as 95 F for up to 6 months, or more, absent hydrolysis.


For example, Applicant tested a fuel containing 5% by volume dimethyl carbonate, 95% by volume unleaded regular grade commercially available 87 octane (R+M)/2, ⅛ gram Mn/gal of methylcyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl, a pH of 7.0, and 5% by volume of water, which was stored for six months at temperature ranging from 65° F. to 90° F. Afterwards, the fuel exhibited no hydrolysis.


The same fuel composition was subsequently titrated with glacial acetic acid to a pH of 6.4, still containing 5% by volume of water and was then stored for six months under the same conditions. After which period the fuel exhibited no signs of hydrolysis.


However, the same fuel composition was prepared with a pH of approximately 11.0, and contained 5% by volume of water and was stored for six months under the same conditions. The fuel showed slight evidence of hydrolysis. The same fuel with an adjusted a pH of 12.5, however, showed even stronger evidence of hydrolysis.


It should be appreciated that although acetic acid was used to acidify the pH of the fuel in the present test case, other fuel soluble acids, including but not limited to benzoic acid derivatives e.g. 2,4-dimethyl benzoic acid, methyl red, p-tert-butylbenzoic acid, 2-(1-methylethyl) benzoic acid, benzoic acid anhydride, 4-benzoyl benzoic acid, 2,4-dihdroxy benzoic acid, 2,4-dimethyl-benzoic acid, 3-ethoxy benzoic acid, 2-hydroxy-4-methyl benzoic acid, 2-hydroxy benzontrile, 4-methoxy benzotrile, acetic acid derivatives, e.g. anhydride acetic acid, chloroacetic acid, decyl ester acetic acid, dibromoacetic acid, and the like, may be employed. Fuel soluble acids are incorporated, by reference. See for example CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics, 75th Ed, Lide, CRC Press (1994-1995) “Dissociation Constants for Inorganic Acids and Bases,” and “Dissociation Constants for Organic Acids and Bases,” incorporated herein by reference. If an additive acid is employed, it is preferred it be compatible with the base fuel, the metallic and have low toxicity, low corrosivity, and be as envirnomentally friendly as possible.


Naturally, acidic fuel components, which are indigenous to the fuel composition, e.g. base fuel, ECS metallic, ECS oxygenate, or an additional co-combustion catalyst, or ECS component (e.g. aldehydic acids, ketonic acids, carboxylic acids, hydroxyacids, orthoacids, formic acids, and the like) should be ultilized to achieve target pH's, prior to addition of an additive acid. Individual circumstances will dictate proper approach and additive. Acidic metals of this invention may be used individually and/or in conjunction with one or more other metallics to reduce pH. Non-limiting examples of such acidic metallics include binary, ternary and higher metallic acid salts, hydroxy acids, phosphoric acids, etc., oxamic acid, lithium acetate acid, lithium salt acetic acid, propanoic acid lithium salt, cyclohexanebutyric acid lithium salt, aminobenzole acid lithium salt,/borate ester, dimethyl borate, di-n-butyl borate, dicyclohexyl borate, didodecylborate, di-p-cresyl borates, boric acids, orthoborates, phenylboronic acid, diphenylboronic acid, o-tolylboronic acid, p-tolylboronic acid, m-tolylboronic aqid, cylohexylboronic acid, cylohexenylboronic acid, cyclopentylboronic acid, methylphenylboronic acid, methylcylohexylboronic acid, methylcyclopentylboronic acid, methylbenzylboronic acid, dimethylphenylboronic acid, dimethylcylohexylboronic acid, dimethylcyclopentylboronic acid, dimethylbenzylboronic acid, diphenylboronic acid, dibenzylboronic acid, dicylohexylboronic acid, dicylohexenylboronic acid, dicyclopentylboronic acid, methyldiphenylboronic acid, bis[(methyl)cylohexyl]boronic acid, bis[(methyl)cyclopentyl]boronic acid, bis[(methyl)benzyl]boronic acid, bis[(dimethyl)phenyl]boronic acid, bis[(dimethyl)-cylohexyl]boronic acid, bis[(dimethyl)cyclopentyl]boronic acid, or bis[(dimethyl)benzyl]boronic acid. Other acidic metallics are set forth below and contemplated.

Anhydrous fuels or substantially anhydrous fuels are contemplated and particularly preferred when employing water reactive group Ia, IIa, IIb, IIIA metals and derivative compounds. Circumstances where hydrocarbon bases require anhydrous compositions are contemplated, e.g. jet aviation applications, etc.


Although anhydrous fuels are preferable, fuel compositions of the present invention may contain water.


It is noted, acidity level of Applicant's fuels may be measured in terms of equivalents, e.g., equivalents of KOH required to neutralize the fuel composition. The fuels of the present invention show improved operation at acidity levels which are 100%, 150%, 200%, 300%, or more, above such standards. Acidity levels below such standards, including those at least 50% less, are expressly contemplated.

However, it is believed that the increased efficiency of the fuels of the present invention are less destructive to engines during combustion, and operation with lower pH's than presently acceptable. International, industry and government fuel standards, including ASTM, IP, COST, DERD, MIL, AN, U.S. Clean Air Act, California Air Resources Board, and Swedish/European EPEFET standards, etc., governing hydrocarbon fuels containing applicant's ECS oxygenates/metallics are incorporated herein by reference.

A preferred fuel of the present invention comprises 1) dimethyl carbonate or dimethyl carbonate, representing 0.1% to 99.5% wt of composition; 2) at least one metal as set forth below, representing 0.01% to 99.5% wt of composition; optionally a metal deactivator representing 0.00001% to 10.0% wt of composition, or an antioxidant representing 0.00001% to 10.0% wt, or a detergent/dispersant representing 0.00001% to 10.0% wt, or an ignition promoter representing 0.000001% to 20.0% wt, or a demulsifier representing 0.00001% to 10.0% wt, or a co-solvent or salt representing 0.000001% to 40.0% wt, or a hydrocarbon representing 0.1% to 99.0% volume of the composition, or a co-combustion catalyst (described below) representing 0.000001% to 80.0% wt, or mixture. Said fuel is constructed with a pH no greater than 11.0 or 10.5, and preferably less than 9.5. More preferably, the pH is from 6.3 to 6.8. When such fuel is a jet aviation turbine hydrocarbon based-fuel, preferred acidity does not exceed equivalent of 0.1 mg KOH/g.


As described in the aforementioned PCT applications, the presence of a co-solvent is also preferred, so long as pH is maintained. Co-solvents that enhance mutual solubility of fuel components, fuel stability, water tolerance are preferred (e.g. C1 to C12 alcohols, alkanolamines, etc.). These are known in the art and incorporated herein by reference. Additionally, co-solvents that increase flash point or reduce vapor pressure are contemplated. Non-limiting examples include, ethanetriols, propanetriols, butanetriols, 1,2,3 butanetriol, pentanetriols, 1,2,3 pentanetriol, 2,3,4 pentanetriol, hexanetriols, septanetriols, octanetriols, or tertraethylene glycol, triethylene glycol, 1-octene, high flash point ketone, naphthalenes, triethylene glycol, trimethylene glycol, isopropyl acetone, diisopropyl acetone, diisopropyl diacetone, diethylene acetate, diethylene diacetate, ethylene acetate compound, phenol, or other flash point temperature reducing co-solvent set forth in aforementioned PCT Applications. Co-solvents should not be corrosive or hazardous to fuel systems.


It is desirable the resultant fuel be constructed to have an average latent heat of vaporization (LHV) no less than typical industry standards. Preferred LHV's are generally greater. For example, the latent heat of vaporization or enthalpy of vaporization (vapH(Tb)/kJ mol−1) for commercial grade diesel, gas turbine, or fuel oils range from about 90 to 105 btu/lb (at 60° F.) or 18 to 21 jK/mole or (at boiling temperatures). Likewise, commercial motor gasolines have a LHV ranging from 135 to 145 btu/lb or 27 to 29 jK/mole, aviation gasolines about 130 to 150 btu/lb or 26 to 30 jk/mole, and aviation jet fuels about 105 to 115 btu/lb or 21 to 23 jK/mole.


Thus, it is preferred that the LHV for commercial grade diesel, gas turbine, or fuel oils at 60° F. exceed 105 btu/lb or 21 jK/mole (at boiling temperatures), for commercial motor gasolines LHV's should exceed 145 btu/lb or 29 jK/mole, for aviation gasolines LHV's should exceed 150 btu/lb or 30 jk/mole, and for aviation jet fuels LHV's should exceed 115 btu/lb or 23 jK/mole. LHV's at least 2%, 5%, 10%, 20%, 30% or greater than these amounts are however preferred.


The burning velocities (as measured by laminar Bunsen burner flame) for commercial grade diesel, gas turbine, and fuel oils range from about 32-34 cm/sec, kerosine about 36 cm/sec, benzene about 44, automotive gasoline about 44-46 cm/sec, aviation gasoline about 44-45 cm/sec, aviation jet fuels about 32-34 cm/sec. Methanol is reported at about 57 cm/sec.


Thus, in Applicant's fuels it is desireable that burning velocities for commercial grade diesel, gas turbine, and fuel oils exceed 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 40, 41, 42, 43 cm/sec, kerosine exceed 35, 36, 37, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44 cm/sec, automotive gasoline exceed 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56 cm/sec, aviation gasoline exceed 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, .53, 54, 55, 56 cm/sec, and aviation jet fuels exceed 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44 cm/sec. However, BV's at least 2%, 5%, 10%, 20%, 30%, or greater than the burning velocity of the unadjusted base fuel or conventional fuel is preferred.


It is also desirable that the hydrocarbon based fuels have high possible allowable densities. High densities of base fuels permit higher concentrations of metallics and dialkyl carbonates. For example, aviation turbine densities equal or exceeding 841 kg/m3 @ 15° C. are contemplated. More generally, the fuel compositions of the present invention allow for base fuel densities of from 840 to 1200 kg/m3 @ 15°0 C., and even 900 to over 1200 kg/m3 @ 15° C. Moderate, low, to very low densities are also contemplated so long as the increased burning velocity object of above PCT Applications is accomplished and a pH is not greater than 10.5, preferably below 9.0, and most preferably from 6.3 to 6.8 is maintained.


Moreover, highly viscous hydrocarbon fuel bases with viscosities above fuel specification, are unexpectedly brought to within fuel viscosity limits by the addition of dialkyl carbonates and metal. For example, is has been found that a diesel fuel oil having a viscosity of 2.6 mm2/S at, 40° C. was acceptably combined with dimethyl carbonate representing 5% volume of the composition, and 2.0 grs Mn/gal, of methylcyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl (MMT) or alternative non-toxic metallic. The resultant fuel composition had a lower viscosity of 2.4 mm2/S at 40° C.

Alternatively, base fuel kinetic viscosities of 4.15 to 6.0, or more, mm2/s for ASTM D 445 No. 2-GT fuels, may be adapted to meet the 4.1 standard by addition of applicant's additives, as described herein.


In an analogous manner, a diesel fuel oil base may have maximum kinetic viscosities at 40° C. equal or exceeding 2.45 to 7.0, or greater, mm2/s for ASTM D 445 low sulfur or regular too. 1-D fuels, and be adapted to meet the 2.4 standard by addition of applicant's additives.

Additionally, a low emission diesel base may have viscosities exceeding 2.45 to 5.5, or more, cSt at 40° C. (where 1 mm2/s=1cst), and be adapted to meet the 2.4 standard.


Furthermore, a fuel oil base may have kinetic viscosities equal or exceeding 2.15 10.0, or more, mm2/s at 40° C. ASTM D 445 for No. 1 fuels, and can be adapted to the 2.1 standard by addition of applicant's additives. A fuel base having kinetic viscosities of from 3.45 to 10,0, or more, mm2/s at 40° C. ASTM D 445 for No. 2 fuels can be similarly adapted to meet 3.4. A fuel base having kinetic viscosities of 5.55 to 25.0 or more, mm2/s at 40° C. ASTM for D 445 No. 4 fuels (Light), maybe similarly adapted to meet 5.5. A fuel base having kinetic viscosities of from 24.5 to 40.0, or more, mm2/s at 40° C. ASTM D445 for No. 4 fuels (regular), may be adapted to meet 24. A fuel base having kinetic viscosities of from 8.95 to 25.0, or more, mm3/s at 100° C. ASTM D 445 for No. 5 fuels (Light), may be adapted to meet 8.9. A fuel base having kinetic viscosities of from 15.0 to 30.0, or more, mm3/s at 100° C. ASTM D 445 for No. 5 fuels (Heavy), may be adapted to meet 14.9. A fuel base having kinetic viscosities of from 50.5 to 80.0, or more, mm3/s at 100° C. STM D 445 for No. 6 fuel oils, and adapted to meet 50.0 mm3/s.


Similarly, a heavy diesel, locomotive or marine engine base fuel, exceeding ISO DIS 8217, BS MA 100, government and/or other industry viscosity specifications, but adapted to meet such standards (incorporated by reference), typically uncorrected viscosity exceeds such standards by 1.0, 2.0, 10.0, 50.0, or more centistokes at 50° C. Applicant has discovered by incorporating his lower dialkyl carbonates and metals, fuels having excessive viscosities can meet government, or other viscosity standards.

However, it is an object of this invention to ultilize where possible those ECS metallics which are not nuerotoxic, especially where human ingestion is possible.


In the practice of this invention, cyclomatic compounds are particularly desireable. Non-limiting examples of cyclomatic compounds include compounds with one or more rings systems, including alicyclic or aromatic ring systems.

Desireable metal containing cyclomatic compounds are those with cyclic rings having high burning velocities. The higher the burning the velocity, generally the higher the preference. Generally larger rings have higher burning velocities compared to smaller rings. Thus, a cyclooctane ring is generally preferred over cyclohexane, which is preferred over a cyclobutane ring. Saturated rings are normally more preferred over unsaturated rings. The more saturated the ring the more preferred. Thus, cyclohexane is preferred over benzene. Ring systems where the metal is in turn attached to one or more a hydroxyl, carbonyl, an alkyloxy radicals is generally preferred. Variations to this general rule are expected.


Non-limiting examples of desireable ring systems/complexes include: cyclohexane, cyclohexene, cyclopentane, cyclobutane, cyclopentadiene, phenyl, benzene, and naphthalene. More desireable are cyclohexane, cyclohexene, and cyclopentadienyl. It is contemplated each elemental metal of this invention can be employed in a cyclomatic compound.

Indirect attachment may be via one or more intermediate atom, including but not limited to carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosophorus, silicon, boron, sulfur, or another metal. Metallic compounds may have one or more non-ring radicals attached. Besireable metals may for example have one or more alkyl, alkylene or similar radical attached to the metal, or one or more hydroxyl, carbonyl, alkyloxy, alkanol radicals, or combination thereof attached. Examples include


Other metallic compounds may have one or more ring systems attached directly or indirectly to a metal, with or without an attached non-ring radical to the metal.


One or more cyclic rings maybe attached, fused or indirectly attached together or linked together via one or more radicals, one or more atoms, including but not limited to carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosophorus, silicon, boron, sulfur, or a metal.


One or more metals may be attached to each other, for example hexamethyldisilane, which is a preferred metjillic. Indirect attachment herein includes attachment via one or more radicals, and/or one or more atoms, including but not limited, to carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosophorus, silicon, boron, sulfur, or another metal.


As contemplated herein said carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosophorus, silicon, boron, sulfur, or other metal atom, may be attached to itself or to another herein, one or more times, with each atom optionally having one or more hydrogen and/or radical(s).

Thus, one or more metals may be attached at one, or up to every location possible on the ring system, directly and/or indirectly. Likewise, one or more ring systems may be attached at one, or up to every metal location possible, directly and/or indirectly.


A non-ring radical may be independently attached directly or indirectly to the metal, absent its attachment of a ring system. In the practice of this invention the attachment of one or more non-ring radical(s) to a metal, absent a ring system is expressly contemplated.

Cyclic rings may be attached to one or more non-ring radicals, atoms and/or ring systems prior to a direct or indirect attachment of the metal. For example, [2-(cyclohexenyl)ethyl]triethoxysilane contains a ethyl radical attached to the cyclohexenyl ring, which is then attached to silicon. This is a preferred metallic structure.


Thus, cyclomatic compounds may contain one or more ring systems, optionally with one or more non-ring radicals attached thereto. Said ring(s) then may be attached directly or indirectly to a metal, with said metal in turn optionally attached directly or indirectly to a radical, with said radical being optionally a non-ring radical selected from one or more hydrogen, hydroxyl, alkyl, aryl, carbonyl, alkanol, alkanolamine, alkyloxy, oxy or oxygen containing radical.

If R is greater than 1, then subsequent R's may be same or different radical, etc. R also be a single radical or one radical attached to one or more radicals, “n” is an interger ranging from 1 to the number of valence electrons (or common oxidation states) available of M. Q is an atom having a minimum oxidation available of 2, including but not limited to carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosophorus, silicon, boron, sulfur, or a differing metal than M. Q1 is an atom with a minimum available oxidation state of 2, including but not limited to carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosophorus, silicon, boron, sulfur, or a differing metal than M, also containing one or more radicals.


Additional oxygenated-organo or oxygenated metallic structure includes M1-O(CO)O-M2, wherein M1 or M2 are the same or different metal or element. M1 may be a double valence cation, wherein M2 is absent from above structure, unless additional carbonate is included. Preferred M valences are 1 or 2. M valences or multiple M1M2 combinations having combined valence greater than two are acceptable. In which case, additional carbonate structure would be added, e.g. CaMg(CO3)2.


In the immediate structure above, M1/M2 valence's may be greater than one, wherein excess valence is occupied by same or additional metal (element), and/or wherein M1 or M2 are substituted for a single or double bond oxygen, and/or by one or more radicals. M1 or M2 also may be substituted for single bond oxygen, or nitrogen, and/or by one or more radicals, including methyl, hydrogen, hydroxy, ethoxy, carbethoxy, carbomethoxy, carbonyl, carbonyldioxy, carboxyl, methyoxy, isonitro, isonitroso, or methylenedioxyl radical. Non-limiting examples include carbonates of lithium [Li2O2(CO)], ammonium manganese, potassium [K2O2(CO)], sodium, calcium, cesium, copper, rubidium, lithium hydrogen, sodium hydrogen, potassium hydrogen, potassium sodium, magnesium, and the like.


It is contemplated that C2 to C8 metallic ethers, C2 to C4/C5/C6 metallic ethers being more desireable, will be used as metallic structure in this invention. For example, M′1-CH2-CH2-O-CH2-CH2-M′2 structure is contemplated wherein M′1 and M′2 may be same or different metallic or wherein one M′1 or M′2 may be hydrogen, or other atom, or radical with one available valence.


Other contemplated structure include metallic ketones, esters (esters of boric acid), alcohols, acids, and the like. Non-limiting examples include M1-C-OH3-R, wherein M1 is one or more metallic comprising valence of 3 or greater, and R is radical, whereby resulting structure is ketone, ester, acid, alcohol, or ether. Other structure include M1-C2O4, wherein M′1 has a valence of 2. M1-C-C-0-C-C-M2 structure is also contemplated wherein M1 and M2 may be same or different metallic or wherein M2 may be hydrogen or atom of one valence. Other structure includes RO-M, where RO is an alkanol and M is a metal. Similar structure is contemplated for M have available valence greater than 1.


As in the case of ECS oxygenates, the carbon chains of organo-ECS metallics are preferably shorter than longer. For example/, a 5 carbon atom straight chain, which is immediately antecedent to a metal atom, is less preferred than a 4 carbon straight carbon atom chain. A three carbon chain is more preferred over a 4 carbon atom chain, arid a two more preferred than a 3. Generally the longer the chain, the less desireable. An exception would be where the chain length and character positively increases burning velocity.


Where there is an intermediate oxygen or nitrogen atom between the carbon chain and the metal atom, particularly if the oxygen or nitrogen atom is attached to the metal, a chain of two carbon atoms is generally preferred over a single carbon atom. In such cases an ethyl radical is generally preferred over propyl, which is preferred over butyl radicals. Branch chains are preferred over straight chains with the same number of carbon atoms.


Chains greater than 10 carbon atoms long are less desireable and not normally contemplated. Thus, the oil soluble metal soap of aluminum stearate, which has three separate 17 carbon chains each connected to the aluminum atom through an intermediate oxygen atom [CHs (CH2) isCOO] sAL, is not an effective ECS metallic and is excluded. Poorly combustible long chain metal soaps are excluded from the ECS metallics contemplated herein. Also excluded is cetyl pyrdrium chloride.

It is to be noted the above list is not exhaustive. The metals and their derivative compounds of this invention include every metal, metalloid, and/or non-metal (herein “metal” or “metallic”) capable of acheiving vapor phase combustion, individually or incombination with Applicant's said ECS oxygenates.


Applicant's invention contemplates wide variation in metal substitution and mixing practice. Thus, it is expressly contemplated the non-lead organo-tnetallies, non-lead inorganic metallics, and/or their related high heat releasing compounds, including those set forth above may be mixed in varying proportions, and/or substituted and/or replaced by any non-lead metallic or non-metallic (organic or inorganic [atom, molecule or compound, including those containing nitrogen, sulfur, chlorine, fluorine, helium, neon, argon, krpton, xenon, or radon atoms]) accomplishing the object of this invention.


Metal derivative compounds and combinations may be entirely or may contain in part or whole non-metal atoms, e.g. nitrogen, sulfur, chlorine, fluorine, helium, neon, argon, krpton, xenon, or radon, etc., so long as primary object of vapor phase combustion is, accomplished. It is contemplated Applicant's metals are substitutents in the fuel, itself, which may also contain certain non-metals, and their derivative compounds, including but not limited to nitrogen, sulfur, fluorine, chlorine, helium, neon, argon, krpton, xenon, or radon, in combination with dialkyl carbonates. These non-metals, and their derivative compound, may be employed with or without any other contemplated metals. It is further contemplated to substitute or mix these non-tnetallics with non-metallics, with metallics, or to mix metallics with metallics, etc., to achieve synergistic improvements in heat releases, burning velocity, thermal efficiency, emission reductions, power generation, and the like.


It is contemplated said non-metals will employed invarying proportions within the compound or combination compounds to achieve synergistic improvements in heat releases, burning velocity, thermal efficiency, emissions, power generation, and the like. For example, hexamethylphosphoric triamide, N,N,N′,N′-hexamethylsilanediamine, bis (diethylamono)-dimethylsilane may be added as a co-metallic or as a secondary co-combustion agent to the co-combustion agents set forth above. Concentrations will be minor, but sufficient to further improve vapor phase combustion (e.g further enhancing fuel ecomony or power, etc.).


Ranges vary depending upon the specific metallic, fuels, fuel weight, regulations, advance applications, thermodynamics, and the extent combustion systems are modified to enhance the accelerated low temperature high energy nature of Applicant's invention. Thus, metallic concentrations that maximize combustion velocity and/or the vapor phase combustion object of this invention are expressly contemplated.


However, it is contemplated that Applicant's fuel also be absent any metal or non-metal. That is, Applicant's invention, by accelerating burning velocity and/or increasing latent heat of vaporization, and/or reducing combustion temperatures by fuel substituent tailoring, chemical and/or mechanical means, as set forth herein or in the afforementioned PCT Applications, said fuel can be employed absent either an ECS oxygenate or a metallic or non-metallic.


In accordance with this invention, Applicant's fuels will contain that amount of at least non-lead metallic, which constitutes a combustion improving amount consistent with the fuel composition, stoichiometry, combustion system, efficiencies, fuel economy and power desired, as well as legal and/or environmental considerations.


It is expressly contemplated that Applicant's metallics be incorporated into liquid fuel systems by means of mutual solvents, mutual dispersents/solvents, colloidal media, suspension media, or other known means, or being separately injected. Metallic's, which are solid at ambiant temperatures may be introduced into the combustor/combustion chamber by liquidification or gasification means.


It is preferred the metallics of this invention be relatively inexpensive to manufacture on a mass production basis.


The metal, metalloid, NLEC and combustion catalysts concentration amounts are to be optimized, such that vapor phase combustion results. Thus, the metal and its optimum concentration amount, is an amount that results in vapor phase combustion, which is evidenced by improved thermal efficiency, fuel economy emissions, power, etc. In the practice of this invention, the ratio of oxygenated ECS. compound by weight to elemental metal, metalloid, NLEC and combustion catalystby weight in the composition is equal to or less than 10,000:1 (parts) to equal or greater than 1:1. Other ratios include from 1,000,000:1 to 100,000:1; 100,000:1′ to.50,000:1; 50,000:1 to 25,000:1; 25,000:1 to 15,000:1; 15,000:1 to 12,000:1, 12,000:1 to 11,000:1, 11,000:1 to 1/0,000:1, 9,000:1, 8,000:1, 7,000:1, 6,000;1, 5,000:1, 4,000:1, 1,000:1, 900:1, 500:1, 300:1, 200:1, 150:1, 100:1, 90:1, 80:1, 75:1, 70:1, 60:1, 50:1, 40:1, 30:1, 20:1, 10:1, 5:1 to 3:1, or interval ratio contained therein (e.g. 50:1 to 3-0:1) and also 1:1 to 1:20, or any other ratio that maximizes vapor phase combustion. Other acceptable concentrations in a fuel composition for said ingredients (individually or in combination) include from 1 to 3000 ppm, 1 to 2000 ppm 1 to 1000 ppm, 1 to 500 ppm, 1 to 400 ppm, 1 to 250 ppm, 1 to 100 ppm, 1 to 50 ppm, 1 to 10 ppm or any other concentrations which maximizes combustion, and is contempated in the claims below.


Metallic salts may be employed in fuels at 0.01 to 4000.0 parts metallic per million fuel, 1.0 to 150 ppm metallic being contemplated, with concentrations equal or less than 50.0, 40.0, 30.0, 20.0, 16.0, 10.0, 5.0 ppm metallic also contemplated. Other salt concentrations will vary from 0.10 to 75.0 ppm metal per million, from 30.0 to 2000.0 per million, from 25 to 750 parts metallic or salt per million fuel. In the application of Applicant's invention elemental metal concentrations from 3.0 to 500.0 ppm metal are expressly contemplated and desirable. Concentrations outside these ranges are contemplated.


It has been found that higher oxygen weight concentrations in fuel compositions, particularly with higher concentrations of enhanced combustion properties, permit higher acceptable metallic concentrations. Higher average fuel densities are also associated with higher acceptable metallic concentrations and higher exhaust velocities, and are preferred. Engine combustion thermal dynamics and stoichiometry dictate upper metallic limits.


As noted above, elemental metallic concentrations will vary substantially. Non-limiting examples include elemental metallic concentrations equal to or greater than {fraction (1/64)}, {fraction (1/32)}, {fraction (1/16)}, {fraction (3/32)}, ⅛, {fraction (5/32)}, {fraction (3/16)}, ¼, {fraction (5/16)}, ⅜, {fraction (7/16)}, ½, ⅝, ¾, ⅞, 1, 1.25, 1.5, 1.75, 2.0, 2.25, 2.5, 2.75, 3.0, 3.25, 3.5, 3.75, 4.0, 4.5, 5.0, 5.5, 6.0, 6.5, 7.0, 7.5, 8.0, 8.5, 9.0, 9.5, 10.0 grams/gal. In advance aviation, rocket and/or propellant and other applications, elemental metal concentrations can be on the order of 10 to 25, 20 to 40, 20. to 50, 20 to 100, even 50 to 1000, or more, grams/gal, especially in hypergolic conditions. Concentrations both above and below these ranges are contemplated. All combustion improving or stoichiometric amounts of elemental metal are contemplated, which maximize combustion so long as the resultant fuel's burning velocity increases compared to fuel absent metallic.


Thus, those metallic concentrations that maximize combustion velocity and/or other objects of this invention are expressly contemplated. Ranges will vary depending upon the specific metallic, its concentration, concentration and type of ECS oxygenates, the concentration and nature of hydrocarbon fuel composition, including its density, the intended application, relevant thermodynamics, extent combustion systems are modified to enhance the accelerated low temperature high energy nature of Applicant's invention, environmental regulation, and the like.


Metallics used in the fuel compositions of the present invention should be fuel solubleigenerally having melting and boiling ranges compatible with liquid hydrocarbons, or be incorporated into liquid fuel systems by means of mutual solvents, dispersants, or other means, as required. Alternatively, the metallics may be introduced into the combustor/combustion chamber of liquide or gaseous fuels (e.g. natural gas) by separate means, including separate injection, liquidification or gasification, colloidal media, suspension media. Metallics may be introduced into the combustor in an atomized, vaporized, or gasified form, separately and/or in combination with the other ingredients of the invention.


In solid fuel applications, the metallic may be introduced as a solid. In hybrid applications, it may be introduced as either as solid, liquid or gas, together with the balance of the invention's ingredients. Most preferably, the metallic is employed as a propellant or co-propellant, or jointly together with a propellant. Hydrogen content of the metallic and/or metallic containing fuel should be maximized, to the extent possible.


Those skilled in the art will appreciate that many variations and modifications of the invention disclosed herein may be made without departing from the spirit and scope thereof.
