Abstract (en)

The present invention provides an additive for fuel oils such as petrol or similar liquid hydrocarbon materials, which incorporates a uniform mixture composed of an organogermanium oxide, at least one alcohol, a liquid hydrocarbon material and a surface active agent. Adding the accelerator to the fuel oil enhances the rate of burning of the fuel. Preferred amounts are 1-1000mg of organogermanium oxide, 300-900m l of a mixture of 80% v/v of ethanol and 20% v/v methanol and 50-400mg of liquid hydrocarbon material, all per litre.
