Abstract:
In burning an emulsion oil containing oil and water in a ratio of 5 - 9 : 5 - 1 by volume, a method characterized in that the emulsion oil is burned while recycling 10 to 40% by volume of the resulting combustion exhaust gas to a combustion chamber.
Abstract:
This invention concerns a process for preparing water-inpetroleum type of micro emulsions. These emulsions are stable and clear and contain substantially greater quantities of watersoluble additives than it is normally possible to disperse when using the petroleum fraction alone.
Abstract:
The subject invention pertains to a continuous process for the production of aqueous paraffin emulsions. A primary emulsion is first formed by subjecting water and paraffin in admixture with an emulsifier and a portion of recycled primary emulsion to heat and turbulent flow. The stability of the primary emulsion is then improved by mixing said primary emulsion with another emulsifier and a portion of a recycled secondary emulsion and subjecting the mixture to heat and turbulent flow to produce said secondary emulsion. Finally, additional stability is achieved by homogenizing said secondary emulsion to produce a product emulsion.
Abstract:
DISCLOSED IS A METHOD OF MAKING OIL-IN-WATER EMULSIONS OF WAXY CRUDE OILS FOR TRANSPORTING SAME BY USE OF A SURFACTANT MIXTURE OF NONIONIC SURFACTANTS EACH COMPOSED OF DIFFERING AMOUNTS OF ETHYLENE OXIDE IN THE HYDROPHILIC PORTIONS.
Abstract:
Stable emulsions of normal liquid hydrocarbon fuels particularly jet gas turbine fuels for aircraft are prepared in which the normally liquid hydrocarbon fuel is emulsified with a minor amount of a polar organic liquid which is immiscible with said normally liquid hydrocarbon fuel. The emulsion of the hydrocarbon fuel is at least 75 wt. percent of the fuel as a dispersed phase, contains at least one nonionic emulsifier, contains a polar organic solvent as the continuous phase and also contains up to and including about 1.5 wt. percent of water. In addition, this emulsion also contains a small amount (from 0.001 up to 1.0 wt. percent of the emulsion of a corrosion inhibitor selected from the group consisting of the alkali metal, alkaline earth metal, ammonium, or hydrazine soaps of normal or branched chain C4-C30 alkyl or alkenyl substituted succinic anhydride or succinic acid, the Schiff''s bases of hydroxy phenyl aldehydes, oximes, ketones or the hydroxy benzyl aldehydes, oximes or ketones condensed with an alkylene diamine or polyamine, and the aziridyl substituted alkyl amines, diamines, or polyamines.
