Potential for improving vehicle fuel efficiency and reducing the environmental pollution via fuel ionization

In order to reduce the level of atmospheric pollution caused by vehicle engine emissions, application of a novel technique based on fuel magnetization has been tested in this study aiming at improving fuel efficiency and reducing the rate of gas emissions into the environment. Two experiments were c...
