Fuel filter
A fuel filter assembly includes a filter housing, a center stack, a top portion, a center stack base, and a fuel filter. The fuel filter includes a filter center support having a first portion extending along a first axial length, and a second portion extending along a second axial length, the first portion having a first inner diameter that is greater than a second inner diameter of the second portion, and having a first inner contact surface at the first inner diameter, and a filter base having an opening, the opening having an opening diameter and defining a second inner contact surface. When positioned within the filter housing, the fuel filter contacts the center stack at a first axial location and at the first inner contact surface, and it contacts a center stack base of the center stack at a second axial location and at the second inner contact surface.

Filtering device
A filtering device may includes a bag-shaped filter member that is capable of being connected to a fuel inlet port of a fuel pump disposed in a fuel tank in order to filtrate fuel drawn by the fuel pump, and a wall member that is connected to the filter member such that a fuel reservoir portion can be defined above the filter member.
CONTINUOUS FUEL FLOW ENHANCER DEVICE FOR INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINES
Continuous fuel flow enhancer device for internal combustion engines has two internal solid phases in the fuel circulation where the following components intervene: silica gel (SiO2 nH2O) which performs a dehydration process, and in a second phase, activated carbon for organic compounds intervene, which performs an adsorption, purification and dehydration process.
FINAL SEPARATOR
A separator for a separator device, for example a final separator for a final separator device for separating water from a liquid such as oil and/or fuel, may include a filter body including at least one filter material through which the liquid can flow. The filter body may have a first side and a second side. A nanofibre layer may be disposed on the first side in at least one region. The nanofibre layer may be configured hydrophobic. According to an implementation, the nanofibre layer is treated to produce the hydrophobic property. The filter body may have a porosity on the first side that is smaller than on the second side.
FUEL SUPPLY DEVICE
A fuel supply device includes a fuel pump, a filter case, a fuel passage, a discharge passage, and a residual pressure holding valve. A communication port opens at a shifted position of the fuel passage that is positionally shifted from the residual pressure holding valve toward the discharge passage. The fuel passage includes an outside passage part through which fuel flows from the communication port toward the discharge passage, and an inside passage part that throttles a flow of fuel flowing from the communication port toward the residual pressure holding valve more than the outside passage part. When a passage cross-sectional area of the inside passage part is converted into a passage cross-sectional area of a circular pipe, D which is a passage diameter of the circular pipe, and L which is a length of the inside passage part satisfy a relational expression of L/D≧3.
GLASS-FREE NONWOVEN COALESCER
A filter element and methods of use and forming are provided. The filter element provides water coalescing and separation functions downstream from particulate filtration functions. At least the coalescing stage of the filter element may be glass free. The coalescing stage may have density graded media to accommodate increase water droplet size due to water coalescing.

VEHICLE WITH FUEL DENSIFIER
For powering a vehicle, a high energy density fuel is preferred. However, for example when the high energy fuel is highly concentrated hydrogen peroxide, this fuel may be dangerous to handle; especially when the person handling the fuel is a normal consumer filling a fuel reservoir of his vehicle at a gas station. The present invention therefore provides a vehicle arranged to receive a diluted—and thus safer—fuel, and to density this fuel to a concentrated fuel in low quantities on board for direct use. To this end a fuel densifier is provided in the vehicle arranged for receiving liquid diluted fuel and arranged to provide a concentrated fuel based on the diluted fuel, the concentrated fuel having a higher energy density than the diluted fuel. A power conversion module of the vehicle is arranged to convert the concentrated fuel to kinetic energy for powering the vehicle.
