摘要:
Platinum group metal fuel additives are effective in fuel environments which make the exclusion of water impractical. The fuels additives comprise a platinum group metal compound and a water-functional composition selected from the group consisting of lipophilic emulsifiers, lipophilic organic compounds in which water is miscible and mixtures of these. The additives are preferably effective in fuel compositions having water contents of at least about 0.01 % water by weight.

The invention provides a method employing a fuel additive to improve the operation of a pass-through oxidation catalyst over long periods of time with continued catalytic activity and without the undesirable conversion of SO2 to SO3. A pass-through catalyst support is continuously, selectively catalyzed by the combustion of a fuel containing a platinum group metal composition which burns to release the catalyst metal in active form. The effectiveness of the process is attributed to improved combustion in the engine by the catalyst and the treatment of the catalytic oxidizer with active catalyst metal released during combustion such that, in the exhaust system, the soluble organic fraction of the particulates and the levels of gaseous unburned hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide are significantly reduced. The catalysts conditioned by the present invention cause minimal conversion of SO2 to SO3. The platinum group metal compositions soluble or dispersible in the diesel fuel and are added in amounts effective to provide concentrations of the metal in the fuel of less than 1 part per million (ppm).

The invention relates to a process for reducing nitrogen oxides emissions from a diesel engine. The process comprises preparing an emulsion of water (20) and urea (26) in a mixer (24) and then blending the emulsion with diesel fuel (40) in a mixer (30), and then supplying the emulsion to a diesel engine for combusting therein, whereby combustion of the emulsion leads to a reduction in the nitrogen oxides emissions from the diesel engine when compared with combustion of diesel alone.
摘要:
Procédé permettant de réduire l'émission d'oxydes azotés produits par un moteur Diesel sans réduire significativement l'efficacité du carburant et sans augmenter significativement les émissions de monoxyde de carbone et d'hydrocarbure. Dans ce procédé on prépare un moteur Diesel de sorte que son temps d'injection soit fixé à un point suffisant pour permettre de réduire les émissions d'oxyde azotés par le moteur; puis on allume le moteur Diesel mélangé à un additif comprenant une composition de coordination métallique d'un groupe platine organo-métallique soluble dans le carburant.
