Claim 14:
15. A method for reducing combustion time and/or combustion temperature in an internal combustion engine, comprising:
generating, via an electrolysis cell, an oxygen-hydrogen gas mixture;
generating an ionized oxygen-hydrogen gas mixture that includes oxygen ions and hydrogen ions by ionizing an oxygen-hydrogen gas mixture;
introducing 0.01-0.03 liters per minute of the ionized oxygen-hydrogen gas mixture that includes oxygen ions and hydrogen ions per liter of engine displacement into an intake air stream upstream of a turbofan; and
adjusting at least a portion of the ionized oxygen-hydrogen gas mixture that includes oxygen ions and hydrogen ions in proportion to engine speed to reduce unburnt fuel at the end of a combustion cycle of the internal combustion engine by more than 10%;
whereby particulate formation in the internal combustion engine is reduced by greater than 10%,
wherein the internal combustion engine is a turbo-charged diesel engine installed on a truck, and
wherein the ionized oxygen-hydrogen gas mixture is generated onboard the truck via an electrolysis cell equipped with an electrolyte circulation loop comprising a radiator.
