IMPROVED COMBUSTION

摘要

A process of improving the oxidation of carbonaceous products derived from the combustion of fuel and/or improving combustion of fuel is described. The process comprises adding to the fuel before the combustion thereof a composition comprising at least an organo-metallic complex of a Group I metal or at least an organo-metallic complex of a Group II metal, or a mixture thereof, characterised in that the concentration of the metal of the Group I and/or the Group II organo-metallic complex in the fuel before combustion is 30 ppm or less. The organo-metallic complex induces acceptable spontaneous trap regeneration according to the Test Protocol presented in the Examples.
