Title: The Innovations of Anthony M Dean

Introduction

Anthony M Dean is a notable inventor based in Hampton, NJ (US). He has made significant contributions to the field of fuel formulations and combustion technologies. With a total of 11 patents to his name, Dean's work focuses on enhancing fuel efficiency and reducing emissions in combustion engines.

Latest Patents

One of Dean's latest patents is titled "Fuel formulations to extend the lean limit." This invention relates to fuels that possess a high laminar flame speed and specific distillation characteristics. The invention aims to create fuels that contain at least one species with a laminar flame speed greater than that of isooctane, along with particular distillation properties including T, FBP, and IBP. Another significant patent is "NO.sub.x reductant generation in a compression-ignition engine." This invention describes a method for producing NO.sub.x reductants by injecting hydrocarbons into a diesel engine's combustion chamber during the expansion cycle. The injected hydrocarbons are transformed into oxygenates and olefins, which help reduce NO.sub.x species in the presence of conventional exhaust catalysts.
