Faster Cutting Fuel Made from Renewable Waste



MagneGas Corporation, a technology company that patented a process that converts liquid waste into a hydrogen-based fuel, has launched a second-generation cutting fuel at the 2014 Ironworkers Instructor Training Program held in Ann Arbor, MI.

"Independent tests were performed with MagneGas 2 by EWI, a leading engineering and technology company which services the heavy manufacturing, defense, aerospace, automotive, oil & gas and advanced energy industries. Tests performed on track-based cutting systems showed that, in comparison to acetylene, MagneGas 2 had 38% faster cutting speeds on 2 inch carbon steel and about a 34% reduction in oxygen consumption. MagneGas 2 showed even better results when compared to propane," said a company spokesperson.

"MagneGas 2 is a mix of gases resulting in a lower flow rate and a flame that behaves like legacy cutting fuels such as acetylene. This reduces or eliminates the need for retraining of staff thereby lowering changeover costs. Additionally, MagneGas 2 can be used for brazing and welding making it a complete replacement for flame applications of acetylene and propane," said the spokesperson.
