Reformed hydrocarbons and alcohols from fuel alloys and reforming agents

Claim 1

A process for manufacturing liquid hydrocarbons from repeatedly quenched hydrogenating fuel alloys which comprises the introducing into a reactor having a temperature of 500° C. to 1000° C. a feed stock including a powdered mixture of iron halides, oxides, and hydroxides, 50-60% powdered manganese oxides, 3 to 5% chromium and molybdenium oxides introducing air into said reactor to ignite and fluidize said mixture including sufficient carbon to produce carbon monoxide, which CO attacks said metal compounds below their melting points converting them catalytically to fuel alloys at atmospheric pressure through the evolved catalysing and self-catalyzing iron halide steam and the obtained CO 2 serving to increase the efficiency of the CO by reducing its partial pressure favouring faster and better yield of hydrocarbonides (liquid hydrocarbon evolving carbides) said fuel alloy being only primary one composed of different low yield manganese and iron hydrocarbonides and no hydrocarbons evolving carbides not containing cementite, the best hydrocarbonide the primary powder alloys being then passed into a cooling oil bed for repeated quenching below 50° C. to convert all of the above mentioned carbides into high yield liquid hydrocarbon evolving cementite Fe 3 C and manganese tritacarbide Mn 3 C then passing this secondary alloy composed of Mn 3 C, Fe 3 C, carbon unreacted chromium and molybdenium oxides and some zinc oxide into a reactor together with a hydrolyzing liquid to evolve liquid and gaseous hydrocarbons accompanied with by product hydrogen some carbonyls and reduced Iron attained at self pressure of 200 to 300 atmospheres favouring a higher percentage of the liquid hydrocarbons then increasing at the end of the hydrolysis the reactor's temperature up to 250° C. to partially react the obtained hydrogen with previously unreacted CO gas stored for that purpose in order to obtain additional Hydrocarbons then again increasing the temperature of the reactor up to 400° C. to catalytically hydrogenate the remaining Carbon constituent of the alloy into another additional yield of liquid hydrocarbons stimulated by the Cr and Mo doping then separating the obtained gasoline fraction mixing it with 0.5 to 5% anti-micelle forming agents 10 to 30 percent Methanol and 1 to 8 percent water to reform the gasoline into high grade isothermic engine fuel for which the required methanol is obtained by the same process essentially by the same kind of fuel alloy by decreasing its Cr and Mo doping and increasing its promoted zinc doping and finally recycling the Halides the hydroxides and the metal oxides obtained with the hydrolysis into the original feed stock by drying them and by mixing them with fresh carbon powder ready to be used for a new cycle of hydrocarbon synthesis.
