Revolutionary Fire-Safe Fuel Invented by California Scientists
Chemical engineers in California have developed a fire-safe liquid fuel that only ignites with the application of electric current. The fuel, based on an ionic liquid, does not react to flames and eliminates the risk of accidental fires during storage or transport. By controlling the vapor, the researchers were able to control whether the fuel burns. The fuel could be used in various types of vehicles and has potential applications in engine metering and safety systems. Further research is needed to determine its efficiency and compatibility with conventional fuels.
