FUEL GENERATOR FROM COMBUSTIBLE WASTE FOR ON-BOARD INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a fuel generator from combustible waste for on-board internal combustion engine. SOLUTION: A fuel generator from combustible waste in which supercritical water is brought into contact with hydrocarbon-containing combustible waste to generate the fuel including gaseous and liquid hydrocarbons is loaded on a vehicle. The fuel generator prepares the supercritical water by utilizing the exhaustion heat from the on-board internal combustion engine. The prepared hydrocarbon fuel is reformed with an on-board reformer by utilizing the exhaustion heat from the on-board combustion engine into the gas fuel comprising CO and H2 and the gas fuel is combusted as a fuel for the on-board combustion engine. The fuel generator from combustible waste is loaded on the vehicle and the heat source needed for the fuel generation is readily obtained from the on-board internal combustion engine and the cost for storing tentatively the generated fuel and transporting the generated fuel to the consumer place becomes unnecessary and the energy of the combustible waste can be efficiently utilized in low costs.
