  • Patent number: 9644153
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a device that installs in-line in the fuel supply line of fuel usage equipment such as a HVAC system or a large commercial natural gas or diesel generator. The device is suitable for use with liquid or gas hydrocarbon fuels such as gasoline, diesel, propane, or natural gas. The device consists of a hollow cylinder with male ends and that contains a tightly packed copper wire core. The copper wire serves as a catalyst to crack the fuel's carbon chain molecules as the fuel flows through the device. The resulting fuel contains more and shorter fuel molecules, has a higher vapor pressure and burns more efficiently in the vehicle's engine. The copper wire is held in place by perforated copper keepers and the keepers are secured within the cylinder by snap rings that engage circumferential grooves provided internally at the ends of the cylinder.

  • Patent number: 7942135
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a device that installs in-line in the fuel supply line of a gasoline, diesel, propane, or natural gas powered vehicle. The device consists of a hollow cylinder that contains a tightly packed copper wire core. The copper wire serves as a catalyst to crack the fuel's carbon chain molecules as the fuel flows through the device. The resulting fuel contains more and shorter fuel molecules, has a higher vapor pressure and burns more efficiently in the vehicle's engine.
