Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2008071434A1] The invention relates to liquid fuels as diesel engine fuel mixture or light heating oil, wherein the diesel engine fuel mixture, as main component, contains fossil diesel engine fuel and/or biodiesel and/or vegetable oil and additives which are conventional per se. Starting from the disadvantages of the known prior art, the object is to provide an alternative mixture component for diesel engine fuels or light heating oil which is suitable not only for fossil diesel engine fuels but also biodiesel or vegetable oil, which may be produced inexpensively and which meets the requirements as a pure bio propellant. For this, as solution, it is proposed that diesel engine fuel mixture or light heating oil contains, as mixture component, diethyl oxalate. As heating oil use can be made of a mixture which originates from the refining of crude oil and is admixed with up to 25% by volume diethyl oxalate. In addition, as heating oil, use can be made of a mixture which, as main component, consists of vegetable oils and up to 50% by volume diethyl oxalate. In the case of a diesel engine fuel mixture having fossil diesel engine fuel as main component which contains, as mixture component, diethyl oxalate, the mixture component can be added in use amounts up to 25% by volume. In the case of biodiesel as main component, the fraction of the mixture component, however, should not be above 50% by volume. In addition, diethyl oxalate can be added to unmodified vegetable oils in any ratio. As a result the viscosity of the vegetable oil or engine fuel mixture is significantly decreased.
