Filed:

Aug 8, 2000

Appl. No.:

09/638795

Inventors:

Anthony Arand - Fallbrook CA 92028
John K. Arand - Rancho Palos Verdes CA 90275

International Classification:

A01N 2532

US Classification:

424406, 424405, 4241951, 424754, 514783, 514784

Abstract:

An agricultural composition of a garlic extract solution having a concentration greater than 10% by weight of a garlic extract of the garlic extract solution is disclosed. Also disclosed is an agricultural composition of a garlic extract having a concentration of greater than 10% by weight of a garlic extract and a treatment agent. So further disclosed is a method of making a garlic extract of a predetermined concentration. The method includes determining the amount of a garlic puree, separating a substantial amount of a garlic extract from the garlic puree, and adding an inert liquid to the garlic extract to form a predetermined concentration of the extract.

International Classification:

C10G 3504

F02M 2702

US Classification:

208135

Abstract:

A process for the improvement of hydrocarbon fuels using a low temperature and pressure catalytic system is described. The reforming of these products occurs when the hydrocarbon fuel is passed over an alloy metal catalyst at low temperature (i. e. , about -50. degree. F. to 250. degree. F. ) and pressure (i. e. , about 10 to 100 psia). The alloy metal catalyst is housed in a non-electrical conducting chamber and is operated with fluid Reynolds Numbers over the catalyst surface of about 2. times. 10. sup. 3 to 20. times. 10. sup. 4. The hydrocarbon fuel is recirculated over the alloy metal catalyst between 1 and approximately 100 times. This process results in reformed hydrocarbon fuels having superior performance qualities than the base hydrocarbon fuel. Vehicle road tests using such reformed fuels have shown substantial mileage improvements over the base fuels.

US Classification:

208134

Abstract:

A stationary or mobile process for the selective production of aromatics, olefins and saturates from commercially available light hydrocarbon fuels using a low temperature and pressure catalytic system is described. The reforming of these products occur when the hydrocarbon fuel is passed over a dissimilar metal catalyst, preferably containing nickel and copper at low temperature (i. e. , about -50. degree. F. to 250. degree. F. ) and pressure (i. e. , about 10 to 100 psia). The dissimilar metal catalyst is housed in a non-electrical conducting chamber and is operated with fluid Reynolds Numbers over the catalyst surface of between 2. times. 10. sup. 3 and 20. times. 10. sup. 4. The hydrocarbon fuel is recirculated, by means of a constant speed pump, over the dissimilar metal catalyst between 1 and approximately 100 times. This process results in reformed hydrocarbon fuels having superior performance qualities than the base hydrocarbon fuel. Vehicle road tests using such reformed fuels have shown substantial mileage improvements over the base fuels.
