Fuel
TECHNICAL/MECHANICAL
Usually a combustible substance that releases energy after it is ignited, and reacts with the oxygen in the air. Hydrocarbons are by far the most common source of fuel used. Hydrocarbon is a compound consisting entirely of hydrogen and carbon. The majority of hydrocarbons are mostly found in crude oil, where decomposed organic matter provides an abundance of carbon and hydrogen.
Refining Fuel
TECHNICAL/MECHANICAL
Petroleum refining is the process of separating the many compounds present in crude petroleum. This process is called fractional distillation where the crude oil is heated; the various of the compounds boil at different temperatures and change to gases; and are later re-condensed back into liquids.
TECHNICAL/MECHANICAL
and changed into a gas. The gases are passed through a distillation column which becomes cooler as the height increases. When a compound in the gaseous state cools below its boiling point, it condenses into a liquid. The liquids can be drawn off the distilling column at various heights.
TECHNICAL/MECHANICAL
Although all fractions of petroleum find uses, the greatest demand is for gasoline. One barrel of crude petroleum contains only 25-35% gasoline. Transportation demands require that over 50% of the crude oil be converted into gasoline. To meet this demand some petroleum fractions must be converted to gasoline. This may be done by "cracking" - breaking down large molecules of heavy heating oil; "reforming" - changing molecular structures of low quality gasoline molecules; or "polymerization" - forming longer molecules from smaller ones.

Fuel Viscosity:
Lighter fuels have low viscosity, and heavy fuels with high viscosity may require heating, before the fuel can be pumped from a bunker tank.

Biofuels:
The two most common types of biofuels used today are biodiesel and ethanol.
biodiesel
made by combining alcohol (usually methanol) with vegetable oil, animal fat, or recycled cooking grease.
ethanol
An alcohol, the same as in beer and wine (although ethanol used as a fuel is modified to make it undrinkable).
TECHNICAL/MECHANICAL
Alcohol fuels are produced by fermentation of sugars derived from wheat, corn, sugar beets, sugar cane, molasses and any sugar or starch (like potato and fruit waste, etc.)
TECHNICAL/MECHANICAL
Biodiesel:
A vegetable oil or animal fat-based diesel fuel. It can be used alone, or blended with petrodiesel. Blends of biodiesel and conventional hydrocarbon-based diesel are products most commonly distributed for use in the retail diesel fuel marketplace. Much of the world uses a system known as the "B" factor to state the amount of biodiesel in the fuel mix:
100% biodiesel is referred to as B100, while 20% biodiesel, 80% petrodiesel is labeled B20 5% biodiesel, 95% petrodiesel is labeled B5 2% biodiesel, 98% petrodiesel is labeled B2.
TECHNICAL/MECHANICAL
Biodiesel:
Biodiesel is hydroscopic, It contains 20 to 25 times more water than diesel (ie: a bucket of diesel (D-2) can contain 60ppm of water. But a B100 biodiesel bucket can contain 1200 to 1500ppm of water).
TECHNICAL/MECHANICAL
Biodiesel:
This is the damage result after 600 hours of use of B-80 fuel, (80% derived from soy and 20% from petroleum).

Biodiesel:
This is the damage result after 200 hours of use of B-100 derived from sunflower

Xp3s water dispersion ability will prevent the damage that the use of these biofuels can generate in the injection system and engines.

Biofuel - Ethanol:
Ethanol fuel is the most common biofuel worldwide, particularly in Brazil, and now in the USA.
TECHNICAL/MECHANICAL
Biofuel - Ethanol:
Ethanol can be used in engines as a replacement for gasoline. It can be mixed with gasoline at any percentage. Most existing car engines can run on blends of up to 15% bio-ethanol with petroleum/gasoline. Ethanol has a smaller energy density than gasoline. This means that it takes more fuel (volume and mass) to produce the same amount of work.
TECHNICAL/MECHANICAL
Biofuel - Ethanol:
Since 1976 the Brazilian government made it mandatory to blend ethanol with gasoline. The mandatory blend of ethanol in the gasoline, has fluctuated between 10% to 25%. Those quantities require minor adjustments to the regular gasoline engines. Xp3 has been in the Brazilian market since 1995 and the product technology has been adjusted and developed to improve biofuels, and solve any problem they may cause.

Fuel Additives:
The combustion process that takes place in the ignition is far from ideal To obtain the maximum thermal efficiency for burning hydrocarbon fuel, its necessary to release the fuels heat energy under constant-volume conditions. Such behavior requires that the combustion take place instantaneously and homogeneously, with no variation from one engine cycle to the next, or from one year to the next year. Ideal combustion behavior with the fuel and air mixture requires that the ignition process would be perfectly repeatable. The flame process would be both infinitely fast and repeatable so no heat would be lost to the wall of the combustion chamber and cylinder, and no emissions of partially burnt or other undesirable combustion products would remain. which cause excess wear on the engine.

Negative reaction with water and sulfuric acid Negative reaction with water and vanadium. Fuel oxidation Increases growth of bacteria If diesel and water are pumped into ignition chamber, the water vapor formed due to high temperature and pressure will prevent oxygen to react with diesel resulting in poor combustion.
TECHNICAL/MECHANICAL
When the water drops exceed a certain size, they are no longer stable and detach. Water contaminates the fuel and prevents it from burning as powerfully as pure gasoline or diesel.
