1. A device for treatment of a hydrocarbon or fossil fuel which is to be combusted in a combustion chamber to improve combustion of the fuel in the combustion chamber by turbulently treating the fuel with a plurality of fields of alternating magnetic flux and subjecting the fuel to a field of differing standard electrochemical reduction potentials, said device being adapted to be connected inline in a fuel supply line of the combustion chamber and comprising:

  • a non-magnetic, elongate hollow tubular housing having a longitudinal axis, opposing inlet and outlet ends, a generally centrally located inlet aperture in said inlet end for receiving fuel and a generally centrally located outlet aperture in said outlet end for dispensing treated fuel;

    a longitudinally extending first plurality of magnets located inside said housing and parallel to a first side of the longitudinal axis, a longitudinally extending second plurality of magnets located inside said housing and parallel to and latitudinally spaced apart from the first set of magnets and located on a second and opposite side of the longitudinal axis, each magnet of said first and second plurality of magnets having a longitudinal pole face facing the longitudinal axis for contact with the fuel to be treated and each having a magnetic polarity, and the magnetic polarity of the longitudinal pole face of each magnet of the first and second plurality of magnets being of alternating polarity with the magnetic polarity of the longitudinal pole of longitudinally adjacent magnets in the respective first and second longitudinal plurality of magnets; and

    at least two large surface area non-ferrous metal wool or screen materials of differing standard electrochemical reduction potential extending longitudinally along the axis of the housing and between the spaced apart first and second plurality of magnets establishing a field of standard electrochemical reduction potential differential in said housing through which fuel must flow.
