A compact, inline magnetic fuel conditioner is disclosed for improving fuel efficiency of a fuel combustion engine. The fuel conditioner has a magnetic manifold having a built-in magnetic field for interacting thus conditioning the fuel as it flows by. The magnetic field is produced by several pairs of magnets arranged along the fuel path. The magnetic manifold is sealed within a steel hull. The magnetic manifold increases the fuel surface area and its dwell time for magnetization thus improving the fuel combustion efficiency and reducing undesirable emissions to the environment. The resulting fuel saving lies generally in the range of 5% to 15%. Due to its robust operating principle and construction, the compact magnetic fuel conditioner can be deployed under a wide range of weather conditions. Furthermore, the compact magnetic fuel conditioner can be broadly deployed in gasoline engines, diesel engines and industry fuel kilns.

What is claimed is: 1. A compact inline magnetic fuel conditioner, interposed along a fuel supply path of a fuel combustion engine for improving fuel efficiency, the magnetic fuel conditioner comprising: an inlet mouth piece, fluidically coupled to an upstream connection point of the fuel supply path, for receiving pre-conditioned fuel flow there from; an outlet mouth piece, fluidically coupled to a downstream connection point of the fuel supply path, for delivering post-conditioned fuel flow there to; and a hollow device body disposed between and in fluidic communication with said inlet mouth piece and said outlet mouth piece for accommodating a fuel flow there between, said hollow device body further comprises an internal magnetic manifold for surrounding the fuel flow while simultaneously imparting a magnetic field there to so as to magnetically condition the molecular structure of the fuel thereby cause a more complete combustion of the fuel in the fuel combustion engine hence improving its fuel efficiency; wherein said magnetic manifold further comprises a plurality of permanent magnets such that the resultant imparted magnetic field is a permanent magnetic field; wherein said magnetic manifold further comprises a plurality of fuel baffles placed along a first side of the fuel flow and, correspondingly, said plurality of permanent magnets are placed along a second side of the fuel flow such that the resultant imparted magnetic field crosses the path of the fuel flow; wherein each of said fuel baffles is further shaped into a thin plate oriented perpendicular to the global direction of the fuel flow and, correspondingly, each of said permanent magnets is further shaped into another thin plate matching said fuel baffles so as to form two interleaved arrays, arranged along the global direction of the fuel flow, thereby cause the local path of the fuel flow to become zigzag-shaped hence increasing the total path length thus dwell time of the fuel flow under magnetic conditioning without increasing the overall length of the magnetic manifold; wherein said magnetic manifold is structured to be essentially cylindrically symmetrical having a cylindrical hull with its cylindrical axis parallel to the global direction of fuel flow; the plurality of fuel baffles being annular-shaped, placed near the cylindrical surface side of the fuel flow and anchored to the cylindrical hull; and the plurality of permanent magnets being disk-shaped, placed near the cylindrical axis side of the fuel flow and anchored to the cylindrical hull. 2. The inline magnetic fuel conditioner of claim 1 wherein said magnetic manifold is structured to yield a conditioning magnetic field strength of from about 2000 Gauss to about 2200 Gauss and a dwell of time from about 15 second to about 25 second. 3. The inline magnetic fuel conditioner of claim 1 wherein said magnetic manifold is structured to yield a cross-sectional path width of the fuel flow of from about 1 mm to about 1.5 mm and a total length of the fuel flow under magnetic condition of from about 30 mm to about 200 mm.
