Abstract

The solid particulate fuel is first dried and then liquified to a viscous state at 300.degree. C within an inert atmosphere in a melting tank. Thereafter, while the heat is retained in the fuel, the liquified fuel is pumped to a heater and heated to a higher temperature of 400.degree. C. This hot fuel is then delivered via switching means to the cylinders of the internal combustion engine while the temperature of the fuel is maintained.
