Oxygenated gel for improving performance of combustion engines through improved burning of combustibles
First Claim
1. A system for supplying oxygen to a combustion engine to thereby improve performance thereof, and limit pollutants in gases emitted through an exhaust of the combustion engine, said system comprising:
- an air intake system for receiving and filtering air from outside the combustion engine, wherein the air intake system delivers oxygen to the combustion engine;
a fuel tank for storing a fuel which is combusted within the combustion engine;
the combustion engine which combines air from the air intake system and the fuel from the fuel tank, wherein said combustion engine causes oxygen in the air to combust with the fuel, and wherein exhaust gases generated from the combustion are vented from the combustion engine; and
an oxygen storage and delivery device which is disposed within a chamber of the air intake system, wherein said oxygen storage and delivery device stores an oxygenated gel, and wherein said oxygenated gel evaporates from the container thereby releasing oxygen into the air intake system.

Abstract
A system and method for improving performance and fuel efficiency of a combustion engine by providing an oxygen enriched gel which is inserted near an air intake, where the gel is stored within a container formed from a gas permeable membrane which is sufficiently porous so as to enable the gel to gradually evaporate. The evaporating gel releases oxygen, which is drawn into the air intake, resulting in reduced emissions and improved performance of the engine. No modifications to the combustion engine are required to use the system. The gel is inexpensive, and the gel container is preferably replaced or refilled approximately as often as an oil change is performed.

19. A method for improving performance of a combustion engine, and for reducing emissions therefrom by supplying oxygen to the combustion engine, said method comprising the steps of:
-
(1) providing an air intake system for receiving and filtering air from outside the combustion engine, a fuel tank for storing a fuel, and a combustion engine which combines air from the air intake system and the fuel from the fuel tank, and wherein exhaust gases generated from the combustion are vented from the combustion engine; and (2) providing oxygen to the combustion engine by disposing an oxygen storage and delivery device in the air intake system without modification thereto, wherein said oxygen storage and delivery device stores an oxygenated gel which releases oxygen into the air intake system. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33)
