Can anybody tell me the simple way to Blend water and diesel and make it stable ? from where can i purshase the right surrfactant or additive for the emulsification?

PASQUALE
The newly developed emulsion fuel is also a mixture of water and oil, but the team developed a novel method of emulsification. Rather than relying on surfactants, the new three-phase emulsification process uses the weak molecular attraction (van der Waals force) between hydrophilic nano-particles. A single type of emulsifying particle can be used to emulsify many different oil types. Conventional surfactant-based emulsification uses different surfactants for different oils.
The new process relies on the size and shape of the particles alone and not on the unique properties of a surfactant substance.
But if you need specifics in more details they are patented and your source should be the manufacturer if he cares to give you his secrets.
