    (54) Activated, ionized fuel and apparatus for producing the same as well as combustion system for the same


    (57) An activated, ionized fuel which allows a reduction in the generation of nitrogen oxides is produced by an apparatus having an extremely simple structure, and combustion of the activated, ionized fuel is realized by a combustion system. Both a liquid fuel injection valve (25) and a water injection valve (30) inject a liquid fuel and water toward a mixing-stirring chamber (31). The liquid fuel and water injected opposite to each other are mixed together by stirring in the mixing-stirring chamber (31), thereby being activated, ionized as well as emulsified. Since it has been activated, ionized as well as emulsified, the fuel is highly combustible and allows a reduction in the content of nitrogen oxides in the exhaust gas.
