The present invention re lates to a liquid synfuel additive composition which is used as an additive to coal fines to enhance the complete combustion of the coal after turning it into a synthetic fuel. The composition is a chemical change agent in that it converts the coal/composition mix into a different material which, when burned, results in lower noxious emissions. The composition includes a wax, a base for ph adjustment and water.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a chemical change reagent which is used as an additive to coal to enhance the complete combustion of the coal after turning it into a synthetic fuel. The composition is a chemical change agent in that it converts the coal/composition mix into a different material which, when burned, results in lower NOx emissions. The composition includes a wax, a base for ph adjustment and water and is mixed with the coal prior to combustion.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to an improved chemical change reagent which is used as an additive to coal to enhance the complete combustion of the coal after turning it into a synthetic fuel. The composition is a chemical change agent in that it converts the coal/composition mix into a different material which, when burned, results in lower NOx emissions. The composition includes a wax, a base for ph adjustment and water and is mixed with the coal prior to combustion.
An acqueous synfuel composition to be used as an additive for coal and like combustible materials to cause chemical bonding with the coal or materials to transform it into a substance legally defined by United States Air Quality Regulations as a synfuel. The composition contains polyvinyl alcohol, a hydrocarbon wax, and water which interact with the coal or material.

US Classification:
423231, 4232391, 4232392, 423358, 423230, 427427
Abstract:
A method is provided for reducing noxious emissions from the combustion of coal or other solid fuels wherein a suspension and/or a dispersing agent is combined with a catalyst having a high surface area to mass ratio so as to optimize the reduction of emissions such as NOx. In addition, the agent and/or catalyst is applied on the surface of the fuel in an evenly distributed manner so as to maximize the contact between the agent and/or catalyst and combustion gases and further maximize reduction of emissions.

Abstract:
A method comprising applying a chemical change reagent to coal prior to combustion of the coal is provided. In some instances, the chemical change reagent can include an effective amount of a material to reduce NOx emissions, SOx emissions, or both from combustion of the coal.
Liquid Sealant Composition And Method Of Using Same
An aqueous coating composition for coating concrete-like materials to prevent loss of water vapor during hardening. The aqueous coating composition comprises 5. 0-45. 0% by weight of a wax or wax-like material, 1. 0-10. 0% by weight of polyvinyl alcohol, 0-1. 0% by weight of a biocide and the balance of water. Also disclosed is a method of coating a concrete-like material including the step of applying, to the surface of the concrete-like material a coating of the aqueous coating composition of the invention. Also disclosed is an article of manufacture which includes a concrete-like material having applied thereto a coating as described above. The aqueous coating composition surprisingly meets the relevant ASTM and other standards for concrete curing without employing any hazardous materials and/or volatile organic compounds.
