ABSTRACT:
A method and device of this invention includes a fuel deoxygenator and a heating device for removing dissolved oxygen from fuel and then heating that fuel to a temperature above the temperature that would otherwise produce undesirable insoluble materials from a hydrocarbon fuel. The temperature of the fuel and the amount of dissolved oxygen that is removed from the fuel are adjusted according to the combustion process and optimization of desired combustion characteristics.
