What is the technical formula for new energy fuel oil?
2 Answers
Methanol fuel oil mainly refers to a new type of fuel that is strictly formulated by mixing methanol, diesel, and functional additives in a certain proportion. The properties of methanol fuel include: 1. Color: It is a transparent and clear liquid with an appearance and color close to that of standard diesel, and it is odorless. 2. Mixing ratio: The mixing ratio of MF40 methanol fuel oil is 40% methanol, 25% diesel, and 35% additives. 3. Viscosity: Viscosity is the most important performance indicator of fuel oil and the main basis for classifying fuel oil grades. It measures the resistance to flow, and its value indicates the ease of flow, pumpability, and atomization performance of the fuel oil. For high-viscosity fuel oil, preheating is generally required to reduce the viscosity to a certain level before entering the burner to facilitate atomization at the nozzle. The kinematic viscosity of this fuel oil is: 1.9 ≤ kinematic viscosity (40°C) ≤ 3.4.
I've been thinking about this new energy fuel oil thing for quite a while. Essentially, it's about using renewable resources like biomass and waste materials to replace petroleum. Common products on the market include biodiesel, mainly composed of fatty acid methyl esters derived from vegetable oils reacting with methanol, and ethanol gasoline, which is made by blending fermented corn or sugarcane with gasoline. If you're looking to develop a formula, you need to consider indicators like cetane number and oxidation stability, and professional equipment is required for blending. But honestly, those so-called formulas sold by small workshops aren't reliable. A friend of mine tried to save money by buying one and mixing it himself, only to end up clogging the engine nozzles completely, costing nearly 20,000 yuan in repairs. Legitimate companies treat their formulas as trade secrets, even requiring confidentiality agreements for test data. If you're serious about research, I suggest starting with publicly available patents. For example, the biomass hydrogenation technology patents from China's major oil companies could be valuable references, but directly replicating them is still quite challenging.
