Business Wire
Alkane, Inc. (ALKN.PK) announced today it has filed for a patent
for a newly developed synthetic fuel for use as an additive, blend
or fuel in gasoline powered engines. The fuel is not petroleum
based, so it requires no crude oil to produce. It delivers more
power to the engine than gasoline and is expected to produce
significantly less heat.
The technology behind the fuel produces unconventional
combustion in an internal combustion engine. This results in as
much as 18 times the momentum imparted to an engine as compared to
the combustion wave that occurs when fueled by gasoline.
Effectively, this fuel enhances mechanical energy output from an
engine.
“The ability to enhance mechanical energy output from an
internal combustion engine is groundbreaking,” said Mathew
Zuckerman, Ph.D., CEO & President of Alkane. “The internal
combustion engine of today still works on the basic pioneering work
of Nicolaus Otto’s original invention in 1854. The fuel is burned
and up to 75% goes into waste heat, while only approximately 25% is
converted to mechanical energy. Our new fuel creates no such waste
heat during combustion, but rather all of its energy is useful as
mechanical energy in the engine. This will truly be a revolutionary
innovation.”
“America needs to develop products like our flagship product,
Monster Diesel, and our new synthetic fuel, that promise to
multiply the usefulness of our domestic reserves of energy,” said
Lou Petrucci, Vice President of Sales & Marketing for the
company. “America faces increased competition from other countries
for sources of energy to fuel our economy and increase our standard
of living. We have the answer.”
