The MWI technology is a microwave-based space ignition process that can be used in all internal combustion engines that are supplied with liquid or gaseous fuel. This includes diesel, paraffin, alcohol, petrol fuels and regenerative fuels such as e-fuel and blue diesel. The technology promises a drastic reduction in fuel consumption while maintaining the same engine performance. Currently, a reduction of about 14% has been measured in various test series, although the optimisation potential has not yet been exhausted.
Furthermore, a strong decrease in pollutant emissions can be expected. Initial measurement results from 2020 have shown that CO2 emissions have already been reduced by 16%, HC particles by about 10% and the extremely toxic CO by about 93%, with a slight NOx increase of about 11%. The current main requirement, the reduction of CO2, can thus be met by MWI by an overwhelming margin.
With the technology of the MWI space ignition process, the latest EU requirements from 2021 to 2030 are fulfilled in terms of consumption and pollutant reduction. A significant advantage of the MWI technology is that the previous engine designs do not have to be changed, only the ignition system has to be replaced.

“With this technology, we can operate all internal combustion engines that are running on liquid or gaseous fuel. Regardless of whether gasoline, kerosene, diesel and of course synthetic fuels, which will become increasingly important in the future.”
Chairman MWI AG
The technology promises drastic reductions in fuel consumption (up to 30% achievable) while maintaining full engine performance.
With the technology of the MWI spark ignition process, the latest EU requirements in terms of consumption and pollutant reduction within the engine can be met.
MWI technology can be used in all internal combustion engines that are running on liquid or gaseous fuel. Diesel, kerosene, alcohol, gasoline fuels and regenerative fuels such as e-fuel and blue Diesel are possible.
"With the first series of measurements, the MWI team has already proven that the technology has huge potential for saving fuel and reducing pollutants."
