Solving the problems of energy saving and reducing the load on the environment during the operation of internal combustion engines develops in different directions. One of the ways to reduce fuel consumption and reduce the amount of harmful emissions can be the use of an activator of liquid hydrocarbon fuel. Activator of motor hydrocarbon fuel (gasoline, diesel fuel, aviation kerosene, fuel oil) carries out processing of fuel, changing its composition and performance properties and is a highly efficient mechanical device. As a result of the action of the activator, the composition and properties of the hydrocarbon fuel change, the content of heavy fractions decreases, lighter and branched molecules appear, the sulfur and tar content decrease, and fuel consumption decreases. The decrease in the content of harmful emissions of CO, CH, CO 2 in exhaust gases was experimentally established. Activated (structured) motor fuel, in addition to these advantages, increases the life of the engine by improving the organization of the working process in the engine cylinders, provides easier start-up at low temperatures and approaches the requirements of the Euro-5 certificate, regardless of the initial quality. This development provides solution of actual problems of energy saving and reduction of environmental pollution during operation of internal combustion engines.
