Alkane, apparently a penny stock company, is engaged in hucksterism here. Quote from the article: “Our new fuel creates no such waste heat during combustion, but rather all of its energy is useful as mechanical energy in the engine.” Bullcrap. Poppycock. Nonsense. I’m telling you as an engineer with two semesters of thermodynamics under my belt that this is not thermodynamically possible. It MUST generate some waste heat, since you can’t thermodynamically convert 100% of the molecular bond energy into mechanical energy.
