JPH07197048A - Automotive fuel containing granite porphyry, production thereof, and automotive fuel additive - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve fuel efficiency and heighten the cleanliness of exhaust gas by adding fine particles of granite porphyry to an automotive fuel. CONSTITUTION:Fine particles of granite porphyry having a size of 3mum or smaller are added to a fuel in an amount of 20-0.5g per liter of the fuel. For example, the particles are mixed with an automotive fuel stored in a tank, and an excess of the particles is allowed to settle. The fuel containing a finer portion of the particles dispersed therein is filtered through a filter having an opening size of 3mum or finer. Thus, the objective fuel is obtained which, when fed to an engine, neither clogs the fuel strainer nor damage the engine or fuel injection system. The fuel does not form a sediment even when kept within the fuel tank of an automobile. Compared to a conventional automotive fuel containing only eluted components of the stone, this fuel has a higher combustion efficiency because components of the stone are burned together with the fuel without fail. There is no need of elution time because the finer particles are fed to the engine as they are.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The present invention improves combustion efficiency,
The present invention relates to an automobile fuel used for reducing fuel consumption and air pollution, a method for producing the same, and an additive for automobile fuel. Particularly, fine grains of barley stone are added to automobile fuel such as gasoline and light oil. It is characterized by

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, it has been proposed to improve combustion efficiency by adding various chemicals to automobile fuels such as gasoline and light oil to purify exhaust gas. For example, the invention described in JP-A-57-10691 is one of them, and improves combustion efficiency by adding crushed barley stone to a fuel such as gasoline.

Mineralogically, bakuhanseki belongs to granite porphyry, contains silicic acid and aluminum oxide as main components, and maintains porosity with a sponge-like structure even if it is a fairly fine powder. It is characterized by having a very high adsorptivity. Also,
It is also known that, since it contains various components, when it is added to a medium such as water or an organic solvent such as gasoline or light oil, the various components are dissolved in the solvent. It is also experimentally found that if such boiled stone is put into automobile fuel such as gasoline or light oil and left for a long time, its exact principle is not improved, but fuel consumption is improved and exhaust gas is purified. It has been confirmed. Also in the conventional technique described in the above-mentioned publication, it is described that gasoline is negatively ionized by adding barley stone to improve fuel efficiency.

[0004]

By the way, in the invention of the above-mentioned Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 57-10691, 30 to 50 g of crushed barley stone is crushed to a size of about 2 cm 3 when adding barley stone to gasoline. The boiled stones were prepared, sealed in a stainless steel rope bag, placed in a gasoline tank containing 30 to 100 liters, and left for about 30 minutes.

However, with this conventional technique, it is necessary to leave it for about 30 minutes after the addition of barley stone, and it is unavoidable that it is not practical at present. In particular, since commercially available gasoline is directly injected into the fuel tank of a car at a gas station, even if the user purchases barley stone, it is not possible to throw barley stone as large as 2 cm into the fuel tank. It is impossible. Further, even if it can be put in by some means, if the effect is not obtained unless it is left for 30 minutes, there is a problem that the car cannot be used during that time. Further, finer debris is mixed in the barley stone crushed to about 2 cm, or finer debris is generated due to traveling vibration of the vehicle while being left in gasoline. These debris escape from the stainless mesh enclosing the barley stone and are sent to the engine along with gasoline, causing clogging of the fuel strainer along the way.

On the other hand, as described above, in order to avoid the work of the user to put barley rice stones into gasoline and the problems caused thereby, it is necessary to put a mass of barley rice stones into gasoline in the gasoline manufacturing process. Can also be considered. However, even in such a case, the amount of boiled iron stone dissolved in gasoline is very small, and thus the effect of improving the fuel economy and the effect of cleaning exhaust gas of the gasoline thus obtained are not sufficient.

The present invention has been proposed in order to solve the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, and the first one thereof is
An object of the present invention is to provide a boiled stone-added automobile fuel in which the boiled stone component is effectively used and which is excellent in fuel consumption improvement and exhaust gas cleaning effect. A second object of the present invention is to provide a production method capable of easily producing a boiled stone containing automobile fuel as described in claim 1 with high quality. Further, a third object of the present invention is to introduce a vehicle into which a boiled stone is contained, in which the effect of improving fuel efficiency can be obtained by putting the fuel into a fuel tank filled with gasoline, and the fuel strainer is not likely to be clogged. To provide an additive for fuel.

In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, in the automobile fuel containing barley stone according to claim 1, fine grains of 3 μm or less of barley stone are added to automobile fuel such as gasoline or light oil. It is characterized by having done.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, there is provided an automobile fuel containing barley stone according to the first aspect of the present invention, in which the weight of barley stone is 20 g based on the fuel.
/ L to 0.5 g / L is added.

According to a third aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method for producing an automobile fuel containing barley stone, the fine fuel granules having a grain size of 3 μm or less are charged into the automobile fuel stored in a tank and stirred,
After precipitating an excessive amount of barley stone, the automobile fuel in which the fine grains of barley stone are dispersed is passed through a filter having a mesh of 3 μm or less.

The vehicle fuel additive of claim 4 is characterized in that it contains fine grains of bakuhanishi of 3 μ or less.

[0012]

In the automobile fuel containing barley stone according to claim 1 having the above-mentioned structure, the barley stone is contained in the automobile fuel as fine particles of 3 μ or less, and therefore, as in the conventional technique, Compared to gasoline containing only elution components, the boiled stone component is contained in the fuel in a larger amount, which improves fuel efficiency and exhaust gas cleaning effect. Further, since the grain size of the barley stone is 3 μm or less, the fuel strainer is not clogged, and even if the fuel strainer is supplied into the engine, the engine and the fuel injection system are not damaged.

In the fuel for automobiles containing barley stone according to claim 2,
The barley stone is well mixed with the fuel, and the fuel consumption and exhaust gas cleaning effect are excellent.

In the method for producing an automobile fuel containing barley stone according to claim 3, the gasoline containing the rice barite is agitated and then the excess portion of the barley stone is precipitated. Even if the user leaves it in the fuel tank of the car, no extra precipitate is generated. In addition, by passing the automobile fuel in which the barley stone is dispersed through the filter, it is possible to reliably remove large grains or fragments of barley stone that may clog the fuel strainer or damage the engine.

According to the vehicle fuel additive of the fourth aspect of the present invention, since the barley stone finely pulverized to 3 μ or less is contained, it can be directly charged into the fuel tank of the vehicle through the fuel inlet. Even if it is dispersed in the fuel, it does not cause clogging of the fuel strainer or damage to the engine and improves fuel efficiency and cleans exhaust gas.
