<p>Fuel is stored in a fuel container (1), water in a water container (2), antifreeze in an antifreeze container (3), an alkoxylated branched alkyl alcohol surfactant in a surfactant container (4), and emulsion is made in an emulsion container (5). The fuel and surfactant container (1) and (4) are connected to the emulsion container (5) via separate transfer lines (6) and (7) respectively. The water container (2) is connected to the emulsion container (5) via a transfer line (8) to dispense water or water-alcohol mixture to the emulsion container. The water container is futher connected to an antifreeze container (3) via a transfer line (9). The emulsion container is fitted with a mixer. An outlet line (10) from the emulsion container (5) is connected to the fuel cell reformer (11). The fuel, water and surfactant containers are all individually connected to a start-up microprocessor (12) whole signal initiates the dispensing of the fuel, water and surfactant into the emulsion container. The water container is connected to a temperature sensor (13), which senses the temperataure of the water in the water container.</p> |
