The method of producing biofuel compositions and biofuel

Abstract

(A) and plant or animal origin, or continuous phase comprising at least one of about 50 to 95 wt% of liquid oil mixtures thereof, and water-containing dispersed phase comprising (B) about 1 to 50% by weight of water, ( C) mono-, di-, tri-, and a hydroxyl-containing organic compound selected from the group consisting of polyhydric alcohols, provided that when the monohydric alcohol is used tert- butyl alcohol, at least one of C2~C4 also present at least one alkylene glycol or a mixture of both, comprises a about 1 to 25 wt% hydroxyl-containing organic compound, and (D) about 0.05 to 10 wt% of at least one emulsifier , emulsified biofuel composition dispersed aqueous-containing liquid droplets having an average particle size of less than about 20 microns. The biofuels, high shear conditions, preferably by mixing using ultrasonic energy, is prepared from these components. The emulsifier is preferably a hydrophilic lipophilic balance is about 8.5 to about 18, the biofuel includes a cetane enhancer, alcohols and mono - and a mixture of alkylene glycols - or poly.
