“…The highest levels of reduction were achieved with the magnetic treatments installed by the MC directly in the engine pipes, which coincides with what was raised by Patel et al [34], who obtained a similar behavior in the emissions of this gas using a single-cylinder diesel engine and a similar treatment to MTD2 but with a magnetic induction of 0.2 T [34]. Studies with analogous results regarding this gas are found in [36][37][38]; who obtained reductions of 13.3%, 7% and 8.5%, respectively.…”

“…Other GHG produced in the combustion processes are the NOX (NO and NO2). The chemical mechanism of formation of these gases during combustion processes obeys more than 100 elementary chemical reactions, depends mainly on the temperature ranges, the stoichiometric ratio and the nitrogen species present in the combustion chamber [37]. The behavior of the emissions of this gas obtained in the Lister Petter generator, applying the different magnetic treatments is shown in Figure 7.…”

In this research, different magnetic treatments were applied to diesel fuel using static magnetic fields of 0.36T of magnetic induction. The magnetic conditioners (MCs) were installed in different positions of the fuel lines in the engine and the magnetic treatment of the diesel was also carried out before introducing it into the engine tanks. The study was conducted using a four-stroke, two-cylinder, Lister Petter (LPWS2) engine with a compression ratio of 23.5:1 and a constant engine speed of 1500 rpm. The emissions of carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2), oxygen (O2), nitrogen oxides and the temperature of the exhaust gases and the mass consumption of fuel were measured. The highest levels of reduction were achieved with the magnetic treatments that locate the MC directly in the engine's pipes. As the number of MC in the engine pipes increases, the emissions of polluting gases decrease. With the treatment that locates one MC in front of each injector, two MC at the entrance of the filter and two MC in the return of fuel were able to increase the O2 emissions by 6.9% and decrease the CO emissions in about 21.3% in the last load of the generator set. With this treatment a decrease in fuel consumption of 4.89% to 80% of engine load was obtained.
