I don’t think I’ve seen that kind of furnace before. I’ve seen regular oil furnaces that have huge 200-300 gallon tanks underground. It runs in red diesel oil. Not that kind you use with oil filter, used oil and other byproducts fo run that furnace. Basically you’re getting free heat.

Have you heard about the used oil furnace from 1950's that ran on water? Patent was issued to army service men in Texas for only adding water line to T fitting for used oil burner on used jeep engine oil, to get 50% increase in efficiency. That was not what was written in their application for Patent. SS coil tubing in brick insulated firepot of oil burner hooked to input common water line. Oil furnace started. Oil line has spring operated check one way valve. Temperature gauge monitored for temp up to 1500 degrees F. Then valve opened so as superheated steam is allowed in T fitting with oil to tiny nozzle. Nice burn flame runs constant. Then oil line shut off. Furnace still runs. Shock wave from 90 lbs pressure to zero AMBIENT in fire-pot forms Hydrogen and Oxygen torch flame that also heats heat exchanger. Normally water molecules separate at about 3000-6000 degrees which is too much energy. The vibration shock wave allows for disassociation at lower temperature. Electric motor with dual shafts ran 2 oil pumps at 90lbs. If water shut off, and cooled down, then furnace has to be restarted on oil. A much smaller unit in crate was shown to a US senator in Washington building underground parking , as an open trunk display. This was somewhat similar to the propane operated camping stove with circular pores, vertical round fire brick insulated chimney, and interior SS tubing of water. When steam introduced to T fitting, the fuel used was shut down leaving burning circular torch flames. It probably used minerals free distilled water so as nozzle would not clog. (US Patent office not allow for over unity for public.- Free Energy is eliminated in issued US Patents. US- 2,863,499.

It’s all about burning it cleanly, which is sort of a misnomer when it comes to oil. I’m not an expert on this by any stretch, but from what I’ve gathered over the years, waste oil burnt in a furnace like this is actually much, much cleaner than if it had been burnt in an engine, mostly because the furnace facilitates a much hotter burn of the oil.

@@a.dudeman7715 thanks for your insight, I knew nothing about them as this product is not widespread in my country. In the following report, they say : T o summarize, natural gas has low PM 2.5 emissions but moderate carbon dioxide emissions. Wood pellet fuel has much higher PM 2.5 emission levels (based on current technology) but effectively lower carbon dioxide emissions due the renewable nature of trees that absorb carbon dioxide as they grow. ASTM No. 2 fuel as currently used has higher emissions of PM 2.5 than natural gas, much lower PM 2.5 emissions than wood pellet fuel and higher levels of carbon dioxide emissions than both alternatives www.bnl.gov/isd/documents/71376.pdf So I learned something today, thanks 2stroketurbo
