Abstract: A process and mechanism for producing hydrogen by electrolysis aboard a vehicle, means for controlling the hydrogen thereby produced, and operating an internal combustion engine with trace amounts of the hydrogen, air and a vehicle-carried hydrocarbon fuel whereby the traces of hydrogen maximize full savings in fuel and reduce pollutants and wherein a triangularly-shaped, separator within a hydrogen oxygen producer reduces costs and increases efficiency. The invention herein exhausts the oxygen to atmosphere with beneficient consequences and utilizes a small amount of hydrogen to enhance the qualities of a hydrocarbon fuel.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for collecting and compacting waste material.The apparatus includes a hollow cylindrical container operable to be rotatably mounted upon the chassis of a motor vehicle. The container is provided with waste material charging means at each end thereof and is interiorly fitted with a rotatable discoid element adjacent each charging means for directing waste material deposited within each end of the container toward the center thereof. The container may be further constructed with two sets of opposite hand helical translating vanes such that material deposited within either end of said container will be translated toward and tightly compacted generally in a central portion of the container upon rotation of the container. Each end of the container may be further provided with resiliently mounted breaker means to reduce the size of waste objects as the objects are fed into the container.
