<p>Efficient utilization of available resources is a promising research direction. In-depth studies can provide a unique platform for reducing fuel consumption while simultaneously reducing pollution, thereby avoiding environmental pollution and health hazards for this purpose various fuel addictive are being used now.  A laser additive for liquid and gaseous fuel is yet to be developed. In this context, we successfully used the 2-6 mid-infrared spectrum as a fuel additive. To generate mid-infrared we invented a hand-lit pocket-size mid-infrared generating automizer (MIRGA). The trial fuels were irradiated with this spectral range, which caused chemical changes in the fuels. MIRGA irritated gasoline and diesel consumption was reduced by 30-50% and 12-58% respectively. Also the emission by 1-62% and 1-68% respectively depending on the engine model. The irradiated liquified petroleum gas had extended utility days by 28 - 35% and gasoline power generators showed 28 % more electricity generation. These results were compared with non-irradiated fuels. This technology is safe, simple to implement at both the manufacturer and consumer levels, and cost-effective. This work demonstrates the MIRGA technology as an intriguing playground for revealing the effects of MIR on fuel chemistry, and the benefits are discussed here</p>
