Definitions
- the present disclosure broadly relates to a composition to treat the fuel system, especially for a modern generation diesel engine.
- the composition is useful in cleaning and decarbonizing the fuel system and burning as an ordinary fuel during the engine cleaning process.
- Petroleum Diesel or the conventional Diesel Fuel is a fossil fuel derived from conventional refining process using Atmospheric Fractional Distillation at refinery. Diesel is a mixture majorly composed of linear chain hydrocarbons called Paraffins apart from Naphthenes and Aromatics. The number of carbon atoms per molecule of Diesel is roughly between 8 and 21. This fuel is widely used as a source of chemical energy for motive power and stationary power applications.
- Diesel is used to power a wide variety of vehicles and operations by an ignition process known as Compression Ignition.
- Compression Ignition the mixture ignites by compression of Air and injection of Diesel Fuel into the compressed air. It fuels the diesel trucks, boats, buses, trains, cranes, farming equipment and various emergency response vehicles and power generators. A high percentile of freight whether it is shipped in trucks, trains or boats rely on diesel.
- Diesel has a higher calorific value than gasoline. Diesel contains about 38.6 (MJ/1) while gasoline contains about 34.6 (MJ/1). This gives a higher power to diesel. When discussed in terms of motor fuel, diesel is said to be more fuel efficient, giving almost 1.5 times the fuel efficiency of petrol. So diesel engines get better mileage than equivalent gasoline engines. Diesel cars have proven very popular in regions where gas prices are high and consumers demand fuel efficiency across a range of vehicle classes.
- the modem generation diesel powered motive engines are different in the following attributes:
- Diesel engines used in them burn at a very high combustion pressure and diesel fuel has to be compressed to more than 1500 bar to combust efficiently.
- the fuel injection hardware used for these diesel engines are computer controlled.
- the engine control unit of the vehicle is responsible for efficiently deciding the optimum fuel trim to be injected into the engine, thereby ensuring maximum fuel combustion efficiency.
- the fuel injectors have multiple injection strokes and are actuated by solenoid or piezo controllers. Since these injectors operate fuel at a rate proportional to the Revolutions per Minute (RPM) of the engine, there response time is in the range of few micro seconds. Hence any time delay in injection can lead to reduced combustion effectiveness and thus leading to loss of motive power and higher emissions.
- RPM Revolutions per Minute
- Diesel fuel has progressed from Category 1 to Category 5 level and this represents a reduction in the fuel sulphur and aromatic content to less than 10% volume.
- Contaminants in diesel fuel like sodium and calcium tend to saponify with some common corrosion inhibitors used in oil transport pipelines and these interfere with movement of the injector internals and render them sticky and sluggish.
- the reduction in aromatic content is further responsible for leaving deposits in the fuel path inside these fuel injectors, which are termed as internal diesel injector deposits (IDID).
- IDID in high pressure common rail fuel injection systems are a relatively new problem faced by the original equipment manufacturers across the globe, in both light duty diesel and heavy duty diesel applications. Owing to engine downsizing, these deposits drastically reduce combustion efficiency and increase emissions directly impacting user drive-ability experience apart from reducing the fuel economy as the vehicle ages and runs in real world driving conditions.
- the present disclosure in general, provides a composition to treat the diesel fuel system which provides a composition for treating a diesel fuel system, which is ready to use, which does not require dilution and helps maintain diesel engine performance by keeping fuel injectors clean, which improves lubricity of the diesel fuel and which help prevent deposit build-up in diesel engines, while meeting the latest CRD (Common rail direct) fuel injection technology requirements for the diesel fuel system hardware.

- the diesel fuel system cleaner composition of the present disclosure meets the stringent criteria of modem day CRD technology for decarbonizing the fuel system hardware in terms of fuel viscosity and fuel lubricity index so as to safeguard high pressure systems like pump and injectors.
- the cleaning composition of the present disclosure is meant to drive a diesel engine and perform the intended cleaning and rejuvenation of the engine so that it results in an improved drive ability metrics defined by more power at the wheels and more torque and lesser emissions.
- a desired reduction in the pulse duty of the pressure regulator valve is also achieved by using the composition as per the present disclosure.
- diesel refers to a specific fractional distillate of petroleum fuel oil or a washed form of vegetable oil that is used as fuel in a diesel engine. Diesel is composed of about 75% saturated hydrocarbons (primarily paraffins including n, iso, and cycloparaffins), and 25% aromatic hydrocarbons (including naphthalenes and alkylbenzenes). The average chemical formula for common diesel fuel is C12H23, ranging from approx. C10H20 to C15H28.
- Diesel engine refers to an internal combustion engine (also known as compression-ignition engine) that uses the heat of compression to initiate ignition and burn the fuel that has been injected into the combustion chamber. This contrasts with spark-ignition engines such as a petrol engine (gasoline engine) or gas engine (using a gaseous fuel instead of gasoline), which use a spark plug to ignite an air-fuel mixture. Diesel engines are manufactured in two-stroke and four-stroke versions. [0026] As utilized throughout the instant disclosure the expression “diesel fuel system” comprises as major parts fuel tank, fuel transfer pump, fuel filters, injection pump and injection nozzles. The primary job of the diesel fuel system is to inject a precise amount of atomized and pressurized fuel into each engine cylinder at the precise time.
- the fuel transfer pump is normally used on modern high-speed diesel engines. It can be driven by either engine or battery voltage.
- the fuel transfer pump can be located on the outside of the fuel tank in the supply line, submerged within the fuel tank, or mounted on the backside of the injection pump. The fuel pump pushes or draws the fuel through the filters where the fuel is cleaned.
- the diesel fuel injector system directly injects fuel into the system.
- the injector is a very complicated part.
- the injector can withstand high pressure and deliver the fuel in a fine mist form.
- Several types of injection pumps are used on diesel engines. Each has its own unique operating principles.
- the primary function of the injection pump is to supply high- pressure fuel for injection.
- a wide variety of injector nozzles are in use today. All are designed to perform the same basic function which is to spray the fuel in atomized form into the combustion chamber of each cylinder.
- the fuel injection system can be divided into low- pressure and high-pressure sides.
- the high-pressure side components include a high pressure pump, accumulator, fuel injector and fuel injector nozzle. A number of injection nozzle designs and different actuation methods have been developed for use with different types of fuel injection systems.
- Common rail direct (CRD) fuel injection is a modern variant of direct fuel injection system for petrol and diesel engines.
- CCD common rail direct
- a high-pressure pump pressurizes fuel at up to 2,500 bar (250 MPa; 36,000 psi), in a "common rail”.
- the common rail is a tube that supplies each computer-controlled inj ector containing a precision-machined nozzle and a plunger driven by a solenoid or piezoelectric actuator.
- Third-generation common rail diesels now feature piezoelectric injectors for increased precision, with fuel pressures up to 3,000 bar (300 MPa; 44,000 psi).
- IDID can be waxy/soapy or carbonaceous in nature.
- the intemal injector components run at such tight tolerances that even a small, thin deposit or film can cause sticking of moving intemal injector parts and interrupt fuel flow to the cylinder. This result in a loss of control of injection event timing and/or the amount of fuel delivered per injection and in a rough running engine, causes diminished power and fuel economy. Due to the complex injection sequences utilized in common rail engines, the effects of IDID on performance range widely including poor operability, loss of vehicle drivability and rough engine running, unwanted variations in power, reduced fuel economy and power, increased emissions, failure to start and, in extreme cases engine failure.
- the expression 'decarbonizing the engine' as used herein refers to removal of carbon deposits from the engine, using either mechanical (physical) or chemical methods. Adding certain chemicals like alcohols and terpenes into the conventional fuel supply (for e.g., diesel) appears to dissolve and remove at least a part of the carbon deposit formed in various parts of the engine, such as fuel injection systems, piston crowns & rings, combustion chambers, valves, exhaust manifolds, EGR valves, cat-cons and mufflers. The carbon is then ejected out through the exhaust.
- drive ability refers to the degree of smoothness and steadiness of acceleration of an automotive vehicle.
- torque refers to a measure of how much force acting on an object can cause that object to rotate. Torque is the twisting force that the engine produces. The torque from the engine is what moves a vehicle. The various gears in the transmission and differential multiply the torque and split it up between the wheels. More torque can be sent to the wheels in first gear than in fifth gear because first gear has a larger gear-ratio which gets multiplied by the torque.
- emission refers to the discharge of exhaust gas or flue gas occurring as a result of combustion of the fuel. Exhaust gas or flue gas is emitted as a result of the combustion of fuels such as natural gas, gasoline/petrol, diesel fuel etc. It is a major component of motor vehicle emissions. Motor vehicle emissions contribute to one of the major causes of air pollution and are a major ingredient in the creation of smog in some large cities. European emission standards define the acceptable limits for exhaust emissions of new vehicles sold in EU member states. The emission standards are defined in a series of European Union directives namely Eurol to Euro 5; Environmental Protection Agency's Tier 2, staging the progressive introduction of increasingly stringent standards.
- viscosity as used in the context of the present disclosure is a measure of its resistance to gradual deformation by shear stress or tensile stress Oil's viscosity is typically measured and defined in two ways, either based on its kinematic viscosity or its absolute (dynamic) viscosity. Fluid's kinematic viscosity is defined as its resistance to flow and shear due to gravity.
- Fuel with the viscosity can cause engine or fuel system damage.
- High viscosity fuel increases gear strain, cam and follower wear on the fuel pump assembly because of the higher injection pressure. Fuel atomizes less efficiently and the engine will be more difficult to start.
- Low viscosity fuel may not provide adequate lubrication to plungers, barrels and injectors, and its use should be evaluated carefully.
- the viscosity of the fuel affects atomization and fuel delivery rate.
- the viscosity of diesel fuel is normally specified at 40°C or 50°C.
- Total Base Number is a measure of (alkaline) additives in the oil. Higher TBN oils are able to neutralize a greater amount of acidic materials, which results in improved protection against corrosive reactions and longer oil life. Generally speaking, the higher the oil's total base number (TBN), the better its ability to neutralize contaminants such as combustion by-products and acidic materials.
- Foaming is a common problem in fuel systems. Foam is a collection of small bubbles of air that accumulate on or near the surface of the fluid. In severe cases, the foam can leak out of the machine through breathers, sight glasses and dipsticks. Foam is an efficient thermal insulator, so the temperature of the oil can become difficult to control. The presence of air bubbles in the fluid can lead to excessive oxidation, cavitation, the reduction of lubricating properties of the oil and hydraulic system failure. So, the foaming tendency of the fuel should be minimized.
- solubility parameter is the Hanssen solubility parameter.
- the solubility parameter is a numerical value that indicates the relative solvency behavior of a specific solvent. It is derived from the cohesive energy density of the solvent, which in turn is derived from the heat of vaporization. The quantity is represented by the symbol ⁇ and is obtained by the square root of the cohesive energy density as a numerical value indicating the solvency behaviour of a specific solvent.
- Hildebrand solubility parameters are expressed in mega-pascals and are designated as such, namely 9/MPa1 ⁇ 2. Hansen parameters divide the total Hildebrand value into three parts: a dispersion force component, a hydrogen bonding component, end a polar component. This means that Hansen parameters are additive:
- dh 2 hydrogen bonding component
- aniline point is the "aniline point temperature,” which is the lowest temperature (°F or °C) at which equal volumes of aniline (C6H5NH2) and the oil form a single phase.
- the aniline point (AP) correlates roughly with the amount and type of aromatic hydrocarbons in an oil sample.
- the aniline point (or mixed aniline point) is useful as an aid in the characterization of pure hydrocarbons and in the analysis of hydrocarbon mixtures. While aromatic hydrocarbons exhibit the lowest, and paraffins the highest values. Cycloparaffins and olefins exhibit values that lie between those for paraffins and aromatics. In homologous series the aniline points increase with increasing molecular weight. Although it occasionally is used in combination with other physical properties in correlative methods for hydrocarbon analysis, the aniline point is most often used to provide an estimate of the aromatic hydrocarbon content of mixtures.
- distillation temperature is an indicator of the tendency of a fuel to vaporize. This is measured by determining a series of temperatures at which various percentages of the fuel has evaporated.
- the fuel distillation temperature which is the temperature at which at a said initial mass of diesel evaporates.
- T50 is the fuel distillation temperature at which at least 50% of the initial mass of sample has evaporated.
- the composition according to any embodiment of the present disclosure is a ready to use composition which can be used to clean the diesel fuel system to free it off any carbonaceous coking deposit or of IDID, and it has the advantage of simultaneously cleaning the system while being used as a fuel itself to drive the system.
- the fact that the instant composition does not require any dilution before being used, is a feature which distinguishes it from most of the currently known fuel system cleaners and which offer great advantage to the user in terms of cost, time and energy.
- the diesel fuel system cleaner composition of the present disclosure also meets the stringent standards set with respect to the modern day CRD technology for decarbonizing the fuel system hardware in terms of fuel viscosity and fuel lubricity index so as to safeguard high pressure systems like pump and injectors.
- the cleaning composition of the present disclosure advantageously is able to perform the cleaning and rejuvenation of the engine while acting itself as fuel for the diesel engine and thus it results in an improved drive ability metrics defined by more power at the wheels and more torque and lesser emissions.

- These specific compositions, materials, and methods are not intended to limit the invention, but merely to illustrate specific embodiments falling within the scope of the invention.
- One skilled in the art may develop equivalent materials, and methods without the exercise of inventive capacity and without departing from the scope of the invention. It will be understood that many variations can be made in the procedures herein described while still remaining within the bounds of the invention. It is the intention of the inventors that such variations are included within the scope of the invention.
- Example of composition according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is detailed in Table 2. It is manufactured by dissolving and mixing the various ingredients into demineralized water at room temperature. TABLE 2
- the tested parameters were Hanssen Solubility parameter, blend stability test, Clean- ability Performance, Aniline point, Distillation temperature, Specific gravity, Copper strip Corrosion, Total Sulphur Content, Viscosity, Total Base Number, High Frequency Reciprocating Rig and Rust & Corrosion Protection. These twelve parameters are deemed important as critical performance attributes for this product, and hence the invention was tested to show the superiority of the claimed invention. These are discussed below in detail, which proves the superiority of the present invention.
- HANSSEN SOLUBILITY PARAMETER Using the Hildebrand solvent spectrum the Hildebrand value of a solvent mixture can be determined by averaging the Hildebrand values of the individual solvents multiplied by the volume fraction of the individual solvents.
- Test Method The test involves observing the fluid after it has been standing in a long neck conical flask for a period of 48 hours for any visual layering.
- the blend of interest should not exhibit any separation. Blends that exhibit separation are marked to have failed the test as it indicates a failure of the polarity component matching in the blend.
- CLEAN-ABILTY TEST This test was used to understand the effectiveness of the diesel fuel system cleaners at removing deposits left by diesel and other potent additives in the fuel which has been identified for leaving deposits inside the fuel system: e.g. in the pump, the lining, rails and the fuel injectors.
- Test Method The clean-ability was monitored using a Panel Coker Machine. The machine was run at a Panel Surface temperature of 350°C which is maintained by a temperature thermostat for 2 hours, and Diesel fuel was mixed with a 5: 1 blend (by mass) of Butane-di-oic acid derivative of poly isobutylene (which is a known deposit enhancer inside fuel injectors causing heavy performance losses on combustion). This fuel was made to fall on the heated panel at a calibrated rate of 10 ml per Hour in the form of micron size droplets. The Panel was kept at an inclination due to which the fuel on impacting with the hot panel slid down on the entire length of the panel. The length of the panel was maintained at 100 mm.
- the metal panel plate (Aluminum 60601 T6) which had been finished to a surface finish of Ra 0.8 Microns was used for the test.
- the panels were tare weighed before starting the test, and after the testing period, the panels were again weighed to understand the weight of the deposits formed on it. The panels were then immersed into the various diesel cleaner solutions.
- ANILINE POINT This is an indication of the aromaticity and hence can be interpreted as an index of polarity of the mixture. The lower the aniline point, the greater is the content of aromatic compounds in the oil.
- Test Method This test was done in accordance with the IS 1448 (P:3) standard.
- DISTILLATION PERFORMANCE This test is an indicator of the tendency of a fuel to vaporize. This test was carried out to demonstrate how the blend performs in a Diesel Combustion Engine. This rest was conducted in a Thermo-gravimetric Analyzer (TGA). Test Method: The test involves heating 7 to 8 milligrams of sample in the TGA at a constant rate of 10°C per minute in an oxygen background until it reaches a temperature of 400 °C. The % weight loss due to boiling and change of phase from liquid to vapor state is recorded with respect to temperature. The lowest temperature at which 10%, 50% and 80% of the initial mass of sample has evaporated is noted. [0088] SPECIFIC GRAVITY: This test is a necessary component of this formulation so as to ensure that the composition is of the desired relative density.
- Test Method This test was done as per ASTM D 4052 standard at 15°C.
- VISCOSITY AT 50°C The viscosity is a necessary component of this formulation, this is to ensure that the pump is able to pressurize the fluid to the right pressure and at the same time the spray pattern of the fluid is maintained at par with the Engine Design parameters.
- Test Method This test was done in accordance with the ASTM D 445 standard at 50°C.
- the Diesel fuel was heated to 50°C and the time noted for the fuel to drop through a calibrated canon fenske viscometer bulb was measured. The time taken was converted to the Viscosity by multiplying with the viscometer constant.
- TOTAL BASE NUMBER This is an indication of how strong the solution is at resisting oxidation and also gives us a possible indication of the strength of the basicity of this cleaner.
- the TBN as mentioned in the ASTM D 2896 is a measurement of the basic content in petroleum products by titration with perchloric acid in glacial acetic Acid.
- the sample is dissolved in an essentially anhydrous mixture of chlorobenzene and glacial acetic acid and titrated with a solution of perchloric acid in glacial acetic acid using potentiometric titrimeter.
- a glass indicating electrode and a calomel reference electrode are used, the latter being connected with the sample solution by means of a salt bridge.
- the meter readings are plotted against the respective volumes of titrating solution, and the end point is taken at the inflection in the resulting curve.
- HFRR wear TEST This test is industry standard test for diesel fuel lubricity as per ASTM D6079 and to meet IS 1460 Indian Standard Diesel BSIV specifications.
- the High Frequency Reciprocating Rig (HFRR) is a microprocessor-controlled reciprocating friction and wear test system which provides a fast, repeatable assessment of the wear scar performance.
- Test Method A solution of 5% NaCl mixed with the samples in a 30:70 percent ratio was prepared. A Mild steel panel was cleaned to a surface finish of 0.5 Microns Ra and the panels were coated with this solution. The panels were allowed to age in room temperature at 85% humidity for 72 hours. The samples with more than 20% of the area spotted with rust were declared as failed.
