METHYL ESTER TORCH FUEL

摘要

A coconut methyl ester torch fuel is disclosed. The invention of the present disclosure, in one aspect thereof, comprises a torch fuel including a plant derived methyl ester biofuel having a carbon chain length distribution from 14-20 percent by weight of C8 and C10 constituents. Suitable liquid torch fuels may comprise one or more methyl esters derived from coconuts that have varying carbon chai lengths. In some cases these range from 6 to 18 units in length (C6 - C18). The percentage of molecules of each length dictates burn characteristics such as bri htness and soot.
