  • Patent number: 6186128
    Abstract: An apparatus for the treatment of gases in a positive crankcase ventilation (PCV) system, in an internal combustion engine, is provided with a housing defining a gas treatment chamber. At least one gas filtering medium is disposed in the treatment chamber, and the gases from the engine crankcase are passed through the gas filtering medium in the treatment chamber, before the gases are routed into the air intake portion of the engine. In addition, the gases, after passage through the gas filtering medium, are passed through an ionization device.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 5243950
    Abstract: An apparatus for the treatment of gases in a positive crankcase ventilation (PCV) system, in an internal combustion engine, is provided with a housing defining a gas treatment chamber. Gas filtering media is passed through the chamber and the gases from the engine crankcase are passed throughout the gas filtering media in the chamber, before the gases are routed into the air intake portion of the engine.

  • Patent number: 5243946
    Abstract: An apparatus for the magnetic treatment of fuel for an internal combustion engine, for separating fuel impurities from the fuel molecules, including a conduit which passes through a plurality of magnetic pack means. Each magnetic pack means exposes the passing fuel to a net positive magnetic field influence. Each magnetic pack means is formed from a number of magnets having alternately oriented poles, arranged along one side of the conduit, with reflectors extending perpendicular to the conduit, positioned between the magnets. Further reflectors are positioned within the conduit, substantially in alignment with the magnetic pack means.
