ENHANCED FUELS, METHODS OF PRODUCING ENHANCED FUELS, AND ADDITIVES FOR MITIGATING CORRISION
A fuel for use in internal combustion engines, wherein the fuel includes a mixture of at least one alcohol, water, urea and/or Ammonium Nitrate. The water is included in a quantity which renders the Ammonium Nitrate and/or urea dissolved in the at least one alcohol. The at least one alcohol is methanol included in a concentration having a range of 90-97 weight %. The Ammonium Nitrate is included in a concentration having a range of 0.5-10 weight %; more optionally, the Ammonium Nitrate is included in a concentration having a range of 1-5 weight %. Further, the urea is included in a concentration having a range of 1-10 weight %.
1 - 7 . (canceled)
8 . A fuel for use in internal combustion engines, wherein the fuel includes a mixture of:
(i) at least one alcohol, wherein the at least one alcohol includes methanol;
(ii) Ammonium Nitrate in a concentration having a range of 0.5-10 weight %;
(iii) urea in a concentration having a range of 1-10 weight %; and
(iv) water to dissolve the Ammonium Nitrate and Urea in the at least one alcohol.
9 . The fuel as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the Ammonium Nitrate is included in a concentration having a range of 1-5 weight %.
10 . A method of producing a fuel, wherein the method includes:
(i) Mixing at least one alcohol, Ammonium Nitrate in a concentration having a range of 0.5-10 weight % and urea in a concentration having a range of 1-10 weight %, wherein the at least one alcohol is methanol; and
(ii) During mixing in (i), adding water so that the Ammonium Nitrate and urea becomes dissolvable in the at least one alcohol.
11 . The method as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the Ammonium Nitrate is included in a concentration having a range of 1-5 weight %.
12 . A fuel additive including a mixture of Ammonium Nitrate, urea and water, for use in at least one alcohol-based fuel, wherein the at least one alcohol is methanol included in a concentration having a range of 90-97 weight %, wherein the urea is included in a concentration having a range of 1-10 weight %, wherein the Ammonium Nitrate is included in a concentration having a range of 0.5-10 weight %, and wherein the water is included in a quantity which renders the Ammonium Nitrate and urea dissolved in the at least one alcohol.
