Abstract
A diesel fuel additive for use in association with bio-diesel fuel and/or petroleum derived diesel fuel having one or more pour-point depressant(s), wherein the pour-point depressant(s) polyglycerol polyricinoleate. Augmentive agents may include at least one of ethylene vinyl acetate and polyethylene vinyl acetate and at least one polyglycerol ester of mixed fatty acids.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modifiedWhat is claimed is:
1 . A fuel additive comprising polyglycerol polyricinoleate.
2 . The fuel additive according to claim 1 , wherein the fuel additive comprises a diesel fuel additive.
3 . The fuel additive according to claim 1 , wherein polyglycerol polyricinoleate is present in an amount of about 0.14% wt when the fuel additive is added to fuel present in an amount of about 99.53% wt.
4 . The fuel additive according to claim 1 , wherein polyglycerol polyricinoleate is present in an amount of about 0.14% wt when the fuel additive is added to diesel fuel present in an amount of about 99.53% wt.
5 . The fuel additive according to claim 1 , wherein polyglycerol polyricinoleate is present in an amount of about 0.14% wt when the fuel additive is added to biodiesel fuel present in an amount of about 99.53% wt.
6 . The fuel additive according to claim 1 , wherein polyglycerol polyricinoleate is present in the additive an amount of about 10% wt.
7 . The fuel additive according to claim 1 , wherein polyglycerol polyricinoleate is present in an amount of about 0.19% wt when the fuel additive is added to biodiesel fuel present in an amount of about 99.37% wt.
8 . The fuel additive according to claim 1 , wherein polyglycerol polyricinoleate is present in an amount of about 0.85% wt when the fuel additive is added to biodiesel fuel present in an amount of about 98.03% wt.
9 . The fuel additive according to claim 1 , wherein polyglycerol polyricinoleate is present in an amount of about 0.63% wt when the fuel additive is added to biodiesel fuel present in an amount of about 98.95% wt.
10 . The fuel additive according to claim 1 , wherein the fuel additive further comprises at least one solvent.
11 . The fuel additive according to claim 1 , wherein the fuel additive further comprises at least one of ethylene vinyl acetate and polyethylene vinyl acetate.
12 . The fuel additive according to claim 11 , wherein the at least one of ethylene vinyl acetate and polyethylene vinyl acetate comprises ethylene vinyl acetate.
13 . The fuel additive according to claim 11 , wherein the at least one of ethylene vinyl acetate and polyethylene vinyl acetate is present in an amount of about 0.13% wt when the fuel additive is added to fuel present in an amount of about 99.53% wt.
14 . The fuel additive according to claim 1 , wherein the fuel additive further comprises at least one polyglycerol ester of mixed fatty acids.
15 . The fuel additive according to claim 14 , wherein the at least one polyglycerol ester of mixed fatty acids is present in an amount of about 0.11% wt when the diesel fuel additive is added to fuel present in an amount of about 99.53% wt.Cited by (0)
