Oxygen-Rich Plasma Generators for Boosting Internal Combustion Engines

A system for generating a gas mixture for use with an internal combustion engine, the system comprising:

• a tank configured to store an aqueous solution consisting essentially of water and a predetermined quantity of electrolyte;
• a cell configured for aiding in electrolysis of the aqueous solution, the cell comprising:
• a plurality of plates arranged substantially parallel to one another, the plurality of plates being spaced substantially equidistant from an adjacent one of the plurality of plates;
• and
• at least one seal located between the plurality of plates to create a substantially air tight and substantially water tight seal between adjacent ones of the plurality of plates to aid in preventing the aqueous solution located between adjacent ones of the plurality of plates from leaking out of the cell, the at least one seal comprising:
• a relatively hard plastic portion with a first thickness for maintaining the distance between adjacent plates, and
• a relatively soft rubber portion with a second thickness for maintaining the substantially air tight and substantially water tight seal between adjacent ones of the plurality of plates;
• a pump configured to circulate the aqueous solution between the tank and the cell and back into the tank;
• a scrubber for removing at least a portion of the moisture and electrolyte from the gas mixture;
• a controller configured to apply a pulse width modulated voltage to the cell to generate the gas mixture within the cell;
• an output for outputting the gas mixture to the internal combustion engine;
• wherein the gas mixture is input into the tank prior to being output to the internal combustion engine.
