Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
Apparatus of the invention agitates the surface (16) of a dielectric liquid (14) including H2O to produce a vapor of excess negative ions. The ion vapor can be utilized for the enhancement of combustion processes. By supplying this excess ion vapor to combustion region of heating furnaces (50) and internal combustion engines (70), a catalytic reaction is produced that can reduce fuel consumption and reduce undesired exhaust emissions. The negative ion vapor of the invention can also be supplied to an enclosed area occupied by humans to reduce many noxious odors and breathing irritants.

Why it's free to use
- Filed December 3, 1990 and granted May 31, 1994. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended December 3, 2010.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by December 3, 2012.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
