Method for enhancing fuel combustion and enhancing the yield of fluid catalytic cracking and hydroprocessing

Abstract

A method of enhancing fuel combustion using a specific catalyst composition with a preselected type of fuel. Upon blending the catalyst with the fuel a mixture is formed where a hydrocarbon structure of the fuel is relaxed by opening up and spreading/spacing out to allow more available oxygen to reach and react with the fuel on a molecular level. The relaxing of the hydrocarbon structure, upon combustion, reduces harmful emissions, burns fuel more efficiently, improves horsepower and torque performance, and improves fuel economy.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A method for enhancing fuel combustion, comprising the steps of:
 selecting a specific catalyst composition for use with a preselected type of fuel; and   blending the specific catalyst composition with the preselected type of fuel to form a mixture where a hydrocarbon structure of the preselected type of fuel is relaxed allowing more available oxygen to react with the fuel on a molecular level.   
     
     
         2 . The method of  claim 1  further comprising the step of combusting the mixture to cause carbon deposits to burn away preventing further deposition. 
     
     
         3 . The method of  claim 1  wherein the specific catalyst composition is in liquid form. 
     
     
         4 . The method of  claim 1  wherein the specific catalyst composition is organic. 
     
     
         5 . The method of  claim 1  wherein the specific catalyst composition is metal free. 
     
     
         6 . The method of  claim 2  wherein the step of combustion reduces NOx emissions and high concentrations of ozone at sea level. 
     
     
         7 . The method of  claim 1  wherein the specific catalyst composition is blended with an ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel and combusted to reduce harmful emissions. 
     
     
         8 . The method of  claim 1  further comprising the step of combusting the mixture to increase power based upon increased combustion efficiency. 
     
     
         9 . The method of  claim 1  further comprising the step of combusting the mixture where an amount of fuel burned with treated fuel in relation to top dead center is greater than an amount of burned with untreated fuel. 
     
     
         10 . The method of  claim 9  wherein torque and horsepower are increased due to greater pressure exerted on a piston head closer to the top dead center. 
     
     
         11 . The method of  claim 9  wherein less partially combusted fuel is available toward an end of a piston stroke resulting in less toxic emissions. 
     
     
         12 . The method of  claim 1  further comprising the step of combusting the mixture to improve fuel economy. 
     
     
         13 . The method of  claim 1  wherein the preselected type of fuel is coal and upon combustion the mixture yield is increased and toxic emissions are decreased. 
     
     
         14 . The method of  claim 13  wherein mercury is present within the coal and upon combustion mercury emissions are reduced. 
     
     
         15 . The method of  claim 1  wherein the blending step includes injecting the specific catalyst composition into shipping fuel before injection into an engine and an exhaust manifold to create a quicker reaction and reduce SOx emissions into the atmosphere. 
     
     
         16 . The method of  claim 1  wherein the preselected type of fuel is jet fuel. 
     
     
         17 . The method of  claim 16  further comprising the step of combusting the mixture at high altitude. 
     
     
         18 . The method of  claim 1  wherein the specific catalyst composition is a homogenous catalyst composition that upon combustion improves refinery process efficiency. 
     
     
         19 . The method of  claim 1  wherein the mixture is used in the catalytic cracking process.
