The invention relates to an emulsified fuel, comprising a major fraction of an emulsion of water and liquid hydrocarbons with a weight ratio of water/hydrocarbons of 5/95 to 35/65, characterised in containing an emulsifying system with at least 15% by weight of a fatty acid ester and polyoxyalkylated glycerol with at least one component of the group formed by the esters of fatty acids and sorbitan and the products of condensation of a succinic acid or anhydride with at least one amine, polyamine, fatty acid, polyoxyalkylated fatty acid, alcohol, polyoxyalkylated alcohol and mixtures of the above. The invention further relates to a method for production of such an emulsified fuel, a composition of emulsifying additives for such an emulsified fuel, a method for improvement of the thermal stability of an emulsified fuel by means of use such an additive composition, as well as the use of such an emulsified fuel as engine fuel.

An emulsified fuel containing a major proportion of an emulsion of water and of liquid hydrocarbons with a water/hydrocarbons weight ratio ranging from 5/95 to 35/65, which contains an emulsifying system comprising at least 15 wt. % of an ester of fatty acid and of polyoxyalkylated polyol, and of at least one member selected from the group consisting of the esters of fatty acid and of sorbitan and the products of condensation of a succinic acid or anhydride with at least one amine, polyamine, fatty acid, (poly)oxyalkylated fatty acid, alcohol, (poly)oxyalkylated alcohol and mixtures of these compounds.
A composition of emulsifying additives comprising at least 15 wt. % of an ester of fatty acid and of polyoxyalkylated polyol, and of at least one member selected from the group consisting of the esters of fatty acid and of sorbitan and the products of condensation of a succinic acid or anhydride with at least one amine, polyamine, fatty acid, (poly)oxyalkylated fatty acid, alcohol, (poly)oxyalkylated alcohol and mixtures of these compounds.
