Startup Claims Microwave Pulse Ignition Could Cut ICE Emissions by 80 Percent

A German startup is developing a potential replacement for spark plugs: microwave pulse ignition. The tech is under development by MWI Micro Wave Ignition AG of Empfingen, Germany, which claims that its ignition system can be used in both gasoline and diesel engines, reducing fuel consumption by as much as 30 percent. Additionally, lower combustion temperatures are said to reduce nitrous oxide emissions—normally caused by high combustion temperatures—by as much...
