Plans to Brand and Launch New Fuel in 2010
BALTIMORE, Apr 13, 2010 (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."

KnOcK!.............
Skittles.
Hope.
Change................
An invention need not work to be patented, AFAIK.
so.. what’s it made of? is there enough to be fiscally viable? how much is it gonna cost to distribute? what is the “at the pump” cost gonna be? can it compete with gasoline? what damage does it do to gasoline engines with the extra punch?
i’m skeptical.
“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.”
“It was easy after we found a way to overcome those pesky laws of thermodynamics.”
Kittens.
Translation: "This press release contains certain lies."
So what’s the patent number? I suspect this is BS, and BS while useful for fertilizer, it can’t run a vehicle...
No waste heat AT ALL. ALL the energy is DIRECTED AT THE FACE OF THE PISTON!
All you need to do is send a small fee to the Nigerian Department of Advanced Special Masterful Science of the Arts. We PROMISE this is not a scam!
From the article at the link;
“This press release contains certain forward-looking statements. Investors are cautioned that certain statements in this release are “forward looking statements” and involve both known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors. Such uncertainties include, among others, certain risks associated with the operation of the company described above. The Company’s actual results could differ materially from expected results.”
in other words..._ “Trust me”
LOL.
"Warning: Everything in this article is pure unadulterated bulls**t. Invest only if you expect to lose it all."
They claim to have filed for a patent so they only have a patent application, not an issued patent. It can take a couple of years to prosecute the patent application, and after final review they may, or may not, get protection on any of their claims. In the meantime, they can claim patent pending status which helps to lower the cost of funding.
It's just an application at this point. A number isn't assigned until it's granted.
You can search for the application here:
sounds more like an ultra-high brissance explosive than a fuel/fuel additive........
hmmmmmmm
There IS “excess” electrical energy, in nearly every vehicle.
I still think using electrolysis, to split H2O into hydrogen and oxygen, and then feeding those gases into the air intake, has some potential.
Of course, hauling around the extra water has to be taken into account -— but I would believe an invention in this area might have a chance.
Don’t close those gasoline refineries just yet....Iv’e heard this tune before!!!
EUREKA!
WE’VE HARNSED THE POWER OF FAIRY PISS!
