Abstract: The present invention relates to a small adapter manifold that is constructed and arranged to fit into the standard fuel injector cavity for each cylinder of an automobile engine. The manifold includes a cavity for retaining the standard fuel injector and a liquid fuel passage, wherein the fuel injector can supply liquid fuel directly to the cylinder. The manifold also includes a separate hydrogen passage wherein a solenoid or servo valve regulates the flow of hydrogen entering each cylinder of the engine. A control module communicates with the on-board computer to allow the vehicle operator to choose a fuel. Once the fuel is chosen the computer utilizes the standard sensors to regulate the amount of hydrogen or gasoline supplied to the engine.

Abstract: The present invention provides a multi-phase fuel system for an internal combustion engine. More specifically, when the multi-phase fuel system is applied to a vehicle, the higher volatility (lower boiling temperature) components of fuel are supplied to the engine in a vaporized gaseous form while the lower volatility (higher boiling temperature) components of fuel are supplied to the engine in an atomized liquid form. In this manner, the multi-phase fuel system is capable of providing a more optimum lean air/fuel mixture for better fuel economy and emissions control during normal operating conditions while being able to quickly enrich the fuel mixture in response to sudden increases in load demand.

Abstract: The present invention provides a parallel vaporized fuel system as well as a fuel vaporization apparatus for an internal combustion engine. More specifically, when the parallel vaporized fuel system is applied to vehicles, vaporized fuel is provided for general driving and liquid fuel is supplied as needed for immediate and heavy acceleration. The liquid fuel is generally gasoline, methanol or ethanol wherein the fuel vaporizes at a temperature of 425° F. or less. Fuel is delivered to the engine using the liquid fuel system until an adequate amount of vaporized fuel can be produced for operation of the engine. As vaporized fuel is produced liquid fuel being delivered to the engine proportionately reduced. Thereafter liquid fuel can be supplied to the engine when needed to compensate for the delay in vaporizing liquid fuel. This system can thereby provide improved fuel economy and reduced emissions over vehicles operating entirely from liquid fuel.

Abstract: The present invention provides a fractionating vaporized fuel system which provides a mixture of fresh air and vaporized lower boiling fractions of gasoline to the intake passage of an internal combustion engine. More specifically, the system uses hot engine coolant to vaporize the lower boiling fractions of a fuel such as gasoline for combustion as a vapor, and the higher boiling fractions are returned to the tank as a liquid for other uses. Intake air is heated by the exhaust manifold before being drawn through a vaporizing chamber and mixed with the vaporized fuel. The warm air/vaporized fuel mixture is then introduced to the engine prior to the choke plate of a carbureted or fuel injected engine. In this manner the vaporized fuel system is able to provide improved efficiency and reduced emissions throughout the entire range of engine requirements.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a system and method for improving the combustion of diesel fuels within the combustion chamber of the engine. The invention is capable of reducing particulate matter emissions, nitrogen oxide emissions, and hydrocarbon emissions via electronically controlled injection of liquid solutions/emulsions containing water and a booster fuel into the intake air of a diesel engine. The booster fuel contained in the liquid solution/emulsion allows control of fuel ignition and enhances combustion causing a smooth thorough burning of the compressed mixture. Cooled air entering the combustion chamber allows the air exiting the combustion chamber to have an increased heat capacity. Increased heat capacity reduces flame temperatures within the cylinder. The combination results in a longer burn with a lower temperature and lower peak pressure in the combustion chamber. As a result PM, HC and NOx emissions are improved for a specified diesel engine power level.

Abstract: A diesel engine filtration system and composition for use with waste oil. The filtration system adapts a high flow fiberglass fuel filter to a conventional paper element fuel filter system to accommodate the higher viscosity of waste oil and allow passage of water. A composition is added to the waste oil to maintain water in suspension and prevent separation of the fluids. The waste oil providing conventional diesel operating engines to operate on the higher quality waste oil which provides a higher BTU for cooler engine operation.
