Definitions
- the present invention relates to a fuel for an internal combustion engine, particularly to an environmentally friendly and low-pollution fuel for an internal combustion engine.
- Gasoline is widely used as fuel for internal combustion engines, for example, fuel for internal combustion engines mounted on automobiles.
- CO x carbon oxides
- NO x nitrogen oxides
- SO x sulfurized oxides
- Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. The one disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 880 is known.
- This fuel contains 48 to 58% by weight of an alcohol component such as methyl alcohol and isobutyl alcohol, and has the following characteristics because it contains such an alcohol component.
- alcohol contains oxygen in its molecules, so the amount of CO (carbon oxide) and HC (hydrocarbon) generated during combustion is small, and therefore, the amount of CO and HC contained in exhaust gas is low. The amount is small.
- alcohols have low sulfur content and, therefore, low levels of SOx in exhaust gas. And these characteristics make it an environmentally friendly fuel.
- Third, the high octane value of the fuel makes it suitable for spark ignition type internal combustion engines.
- the twisting material described above contains a large amount of methyl alcohol as an alcohol component, for example, about 40% by weight.
- methyl alcohol as an alcohol component
- internal combustion engines for automobiles are often formed of aluminum due to the trend toward lighter weight.
- Aluminum is corrosive to methyl alcohol, and twists containing such a high concentration of methyl alcohol If the material is used for a long time, some of the internal combustion engine, for example, the cylinder head, may be corroded.
- An object of the present invention is to provide a fuel for an internal twisted engine that is environmentally friendly and that can suppress corrosion to an internal combustion engine. Disclosure of the invention
- the present invention comprises 50 to 75% by weight of an alcohol component of isopropyl alcohol, isobutyl alcohol and ⁇ -butyl alcohol, and 25 to 49.9% by weight of a hydrocarbon component, and has a flash point of 1 to 2%.
- a fuel for an internal combustion engine characterized by being at a temperature of 0 ° C or less.
- isopropyl alcohol, isobutyl alcohol and n-butyl alcohol are used, and the content of these alcohol components is 50 to 75% by weight.
- Isopropyl alcohol, isobutyl alcohol and n-butyl alcohol have lower carbon content in their components than methyl alcohol and ethyl alcohol.
- the alcohol component of isopropyl alcohol, isobutyl alcohol and n-butyl alcohol is 50 to 60% by weight, and the hydrocarbon component is 40 to 49.9% by weight. % Is desirable.
- the hydrocarbon component includes a wholly aromatic component such as benzene and xylene and a non-aromatic component.
- isopropyl alcohol is 15 to 30% by weight
- isobutyl alcohol is 15 to 25% by weight
- n- It is characterized in that the content of butyl alcohol is 7 to 20% by weight.
- isopropyl alcohol is 15 to 30% by weight
- isobutyl alcohol is 15 to 25% by weight
- n-butyl alcohol is 7 to 20% by weight.
- the weight percentage of these three alcohols ie, the weight ratio of isopropyl alcohol, isobutyl alcohol and n-butyl alcohol, is (1.8 to 2.2): (1.3 to 1.7): It is more preferably 1, and by doing so, it becomes a high-performance fuel for automobiles.
- the present invention is characterized in that it contains an MTBE component of 6.0% by weight or less.
- the content of MTBE (methyl tertiary butyl ether) is 6.0% by weight or less, it is possible to provide an environmentally friendly fuel with less harmful substances.
- the total aromatic component is 0.2 to 1.0% by weight
- the non-aromatic component is 48.9 to 49.7% by weight.
- This internal combustion engine fuel contains a high concentration of an alcohol component and a hydrocarbon component, and the alcohol component is formed by blending isopropyl alcohol, isobutyl alcohol and n-butyl alcohol. Since alcohol such as isopropyl alcohol is used as the alcohol component, in other words, alcohol having more carbon atoms than methyl alcohol, it has low corrosiveness to aluminum and can suppress corrosion of internal combustion engines.
- This alcohol component is 50 to 7 Contains 5% by weight.
- hydrocarbon component number of Li contained in the fuel Correspondingly, therefore, NO x, is C Ox likely to occur during combustion, N Ox in the exhaust gas, C Ox increases.
- this alcohol component is 50 to 60% by weight based on the fuel.
- 15-30% by weight of isopropyl alcohol is contained in the fuel
- 15-25% by weight of isobutyl alcohol is contained in the fuel
- the hydrocarbon component of this twist contains an aromatic component (aromatic compound) and a non-aromatic component (non-aromatic compound).
- the aromatic component is benzene, toluene, xylene, etc.
- An aromatic component having 8 and an aromatic component having 9 or more carbon atoms are also included.
- Such hydrocarbon components are contained in an amount of 25 to 49.9% by weight with respect to the fuel. By including such a content, even if a high concentration of alcohol component is contained, the characteristics as a fuel for automobiles can be obtained. And can be used as a gasoline alternative fuel.
- This hydrocarbon component is preferably between 40 and 49.9% by weight in relation to the alcohol component.
- the total aromatic component is preferably 0.2 to 1.0% by weight and the non-aromatic component is preferably 48.9 to 49.7% by weight.
- the characteristics as an automotive fuel can be maintained.
- This fuel contains 6.0 weight percent MTBE (methyl tertiary butyl ether). % Or less is included. While MT BE has the function of increasing the octane value of fuel, it emits SOx when burned, which is not environmentally desirable. By reducing its content to 6.0% by weight or less, fuel consumption can be reduced while taking environmental considerations into account. Can improve the octane number. The octane number can be sufficiently increased by adjusting the various components of the fuel. In this case, the MTBE content can be reduced to 0.1% by weight or less, and further reduced to substantially zero ( Zero) is also possible.
- MTBE methyl tertiary butyl ether
- Fuel containing such a high concentration of alcohol is blended so as to have a flash point of not more than 20 ° G. By setting such a flash point, the low-temperature flammability characteristics are maintained and the internal combustion engine Low temperature startability can be improved. Also, the fuel is blended so that the octane number is 94.0 or more. By setting the octane number to such, the fuel can be made a high-performance fuel.
- This fuel can be conveniently used as a fuel for an internal combustion engine of an automobile, and can obtain desired operating characteristics (acceleration performance, low-temperature start-up performance, anti-knocking property), and improve the internal combustion engine for gasoline. It can be used as a gasoline alternative fuel without any problems.
- Example 1 As Example 1, the fuels of the components shown in Table 1 were blended, and the driving performance of the vehicle was evaluated using an internal combustion engine for automobile gasoline (made of aluminum) instead of gasoline, and the exhaust gas components were examined. Results.
- Hydrocarbon component 44 4% by weight
- Example 2 a twisting material having the components shown in Table 2 was blended, and in the same manner as in Example 1, the driving performance of the automobile was evaluated using the internal combustion engine for a gasoline vehicle, and the exhaust gas component was also evaluated. Examined.
- isopropyl alcohol, isobutyl alcohol, and n-butyl alcohol having a large number of carbon atoms are used. Can be. Also, since these alcohol components are 50 to 75% by weight, the drivability of automobiles It is possible to reduce NOx and COx in exhaust gas while maintaining performance, and to provide an environmentally friendly alternative to gasoline. Further, since the flash point is lower than or equal to 120 ° G, desired low-temperature starting characteristics can be obtained.
