<p>Fuel additives are disclosed for high-asphaltene carbonaceous fuels such as residual fuel oil or coal. Such additives provide improved combustion characteristics. Such improved combustion characteristics include one or both of improved efficiency and decreased emissions of pollutants. In particular, the fuel additives include an extract from a plant such as fescue, alfeque, or alfalfa, and optionally, an organometallic compound. The use of a fuel additive including both a plant extract and an organometallic compound is particularly useful in improving the combustion characteristics of fuels with particularly high asphaltene content.</p> |
