ABSTRACT:
The present invention 10 comprises a hollow main canister 11 having a series of anodes 25 and cathodes 29 interposed therein for the electrolysis of an electrolytic fluid F, such as potassium hydroxide. The electrolytic reaction is powered through the use of a current source 36 which positively charge the anodes immersed in the electrolytic fluid F. The produced ionized oxygen and hydrogen from the electrolytic reaction is directed through the canister through the combustion situs 45 of an internal combustion fuel/air mixture system through the use of a delivery tube 22. A flash arrestor 44 is used to ensure no flame or backfire migrates through the system and the level of fluid is optically monitored through the use of a liquid level sensor 46. The oxygen and hydrogen interposed within the combustion situs enhances combustion and the cleanliness of the same thereby producing a cleaner and more efficient burn of the hydrocarbon fuel.
