Eight years of intensive research backs the development of the WorldKlass Fuel Ceramics™

The product was developed by a team of American scientists under the direction of Dr. Albert C. Wey, whose experience includes work at aerospace giant Pratt and Whitney and NASA developing methods to test ceramic ball bearings used in the main engines of the for US Space Shuttle projects. Dr. Wey's background in electro-physics, electromagnetic waves, applied optics and quantum mechanics led him to examining ceramic infrared emissions.

Learning and becoming intrigued by a ceramic material that emitted far-infrared rays (FIR), Dr. Wey began scientific examination and testing into ceramic infrared emissions.

He concluded that some ceramics consisting of transition metal oxides could emit photons in the mid- and far-infrared zone. After exhaustive research and applying molecular vibrational energy theories from the 1930s to his research, Dr. Wey wondered if he could find a broadband IR emitter covering the 1-14 pjm wavelength range that would have a method for increasing combustion efficiency to improve engine performance. He referred to research completed in Japan to select specific transition metal oxides to make a ceramic composite that emits photons in the desired 3-14 pjm wavelength band.

From 1999 to 2001, Dr. Wey completed a prototype which showed a substantial improvement in fuel economy and a reduction in emissions during preliminary testing. The following case studies represent several years of product development, laboratory research, and real world testing.

Purdue University

Full scope testing on the scientific theory of using infrared photons shorter than 20 pjm in wavelength for enhanced fuel conversion was conducted by leading scientists from Purdue University with exciting results.

The study concluded that the ceramic developed by Dr. Wey accelerates the fuel burn allowing the fuel to combust more readily and more completely for less fuel use for same output and less harmful emissions.
