Estimating the term…
The present invention provides a process for producing reagents for a chemical reaction by introducing a fuel containing hydrocarbons into a flash distillation process wherein the fuel is separated into a first component having a lower average molecular weight and a second component having a higher average molecular weight. The first component is then reformed to produce synthesis gas wherein the synthesis gas is reacted catalytically to produce the desire reagent.
An on-board process for reducing sulfur contaminates and other additives from a liquid hydrocarbon fuel source characterized by introducing a fuel containing hydrocarbons into a flash distillation process to separate said fuel into a first component having a lower average molecular weight and a second component having a higher molecular weight said second component containing said sulfur contaminates and other additives.
An onboard process for producing a fuel feedstock for a power source said process comprising the steps of:
