The Magnegas was originally conceived to process crude oil into a fuel, less polluting than gasoline at a cost smaller than that of conventional refineries (Scientific background). these objectives have been industrially achieved with currently available, from 50 Kw to 500 Kw that can gasify crude oil into MagneGas fuel. The gasification is based on a new process called PlasmaArcFlowTM , based on the recirculation of the liquid feedstock through a submerged electric arc between graphite electrodes. MagneGas Refineries can also process various liquid wastes, such as engine oil waste, cooking oil waste, paint thinner wastes, liquid wastes from olive oil production, whey from cheese production, and other liquid wastes. In fact, the PlasmaArcFlow process sees no appreciable difference in gasifying crude oil or engine oil waste.
MagneGas is composed of about 55%-60% hydrogen H2, 22%-25% carbon monoxide CO, the rest is given by O2, CO2 and H2O. Under proper combustion, Magnegas exhaust is composed of about 40% to 50% water vapor, 12% to 14% oxygen, 5% to 7% CO2, and the rest is given by atmospheric gases. MagneGas is much cleaner than fossil fuels because it does not contain appreciable hydrocarbons. MagneGas is synthesized at about 10,000o F of the plasma surrounding the electric arc, under which conditions no HydroCarbon can survive. a distinct feature of the MagneGas Technology is that of producing fuel where and when desired, thus allowing car dealers, gasoline stations, fleet owners and other users to become producers of their own fuel locally.
An important application of MagneGas is its use as additive to clean fossil fuel exhaust.the addition of MagneGas to coal combustion burns HydroCarbons, Carbon Monoxide and other contaminants in coal exhaust in a way proportionate to the used MagneGas. Similarly, the addition of magnegas to natural gas improves distinctly its environmental quality, all the way to the possible green electricity, again, depending on the used percentage of magnegas.
