A method for preparation of a reagent for reducing hydrodynamic drag of a turbulent flow of liquid hydrocarbons in pipelines, characterized by a high polymer content of at least 75 wt %, including mixing a 0.1-1.5 mm polymer reducing the hydrodynamic drag of a turbulent flow of liquid hydrocarbons with polymer non-solving solvents. The prepared product is a commodity form of the reagent with a high polymer content of at least 75 wt % used to reduce the hydrodynamic drag of the flow of liquid hydrocarbons in pipelines. The product prepared according to the described method is injected into the flow of hydrocarbon fluid transported through the pipeline using the injection apparatus that mechanically moves the product using a screw auger or screw feeder.

Aviation fuel formulations receive many benefits when a manganese-containing additive is incorporated in that composition. However, to the extent that the use of a manganese-containing compound may result in the formation of engine deposits during combustion, it is beneficial to further provide a scavenger compound to the fuel composition. This scavenger compound may include a phosphorus-containing compound, an organobromide compounds, and/or a tricarbonyl compound.

The present invention provides a fuel oil composition, including: a fuel oil base oil having a sulfur element content of from 0.01 mass % to 0.50 mass %; and a calcium salicylate having a total base number of from 100 mgKOH/g to 1,200 mgKOH/g.

Technologies for combusting hazardous compounds such as chemical warfare agents and related compounds are disclosed. In embodiments, the technologies include systems and methods for combusting such compounds in an internal combustion engine, such as a spark ignition internal combustion engine, a diesel engine, or the like. The technologies described herein further include components for treating an exhaust gas stream produced by combustion of hazardous compounds. In embodiments such components include a scrubber that utilizes a scrubbing media such as soil to removing acid gases from the exhaust stream.

Aviation gasolines and additives may have manganese-containing anti-knock components. The scavengers herein mitigate the possible deleterious effects from using the manganese-containing anti-knock. The scavengers include molecules with a central atom of a Group 15 element other than nitrogen. Entities that are attached to the central atom are electron withdrawing entities including electron deficient atoms and electron deficient functional groups.

An aviation fuel is formulated with manganese-containing compounds. The composition may include relatively high amounts of manganese up to about 500 mg Mn/l. A manganese-containing additive may reduce the smoke created during the combustion of the aviation fuel. Additionally, the aviation fuel composition may include manganese to improve octane and include a phosphorus-containing scavenger to reduce manganese oxide engine deposits. Further, isooctane is added in order to, with the manganese-containing compound, improve the octane number of the fuel.
