While this enhanced combustion process generates power, a notable portion of the fuel remains unburnt. However, this concern is addressed through an ingenious solution. The emitted gasses are directed to a specialized nanoparticle filtration chamber, featuring a layer of titanium oxide nanoparticles. These nanoparticles effectively separate the unburnt fuel from the harmful emissions mixture, resulting in a remarkable 70% reduction in emissions.

Moreover, the separated and reusable fuel is then directed to the LFNT piston system, which boasts a nanoparticle coating comprising aluminum oxide and cerium oxide. These nanoparticles serve as catalysts during combustion, further reducing emissions to nearly zero(since it is only because of the uncombusted fuel that harmful gases are emitted from the exhaust). The pistons themselves are enhanced with Nanostructure coatings, including diamond-like carbon (DLC) coatings. These coatings effectively minimize friction in both the piston system and the rotor system, contributing to enhanced performance.

Overall, this groundbreaking engine design integrates advanced concepts, such as the CT rotor system, nanoparticle filtration, and nanoparticle-coated pistons. Through these innovations, the engine achieves remarkable improvements in efficiency, emission reduction, and power, positioning it as a better alternative of electric cars and traditional piston engines in the automotive industry.
