MagneGas Corporation‘s MAGNEGAS® was successfully tested by the Fire Department of New York’s (FDNY’s) Special Operations Command for use as a metal cutting and extraction tool and has placed its first order of fuel.

FDNY’s 18-month test of MagneGas® found that it had a hotter flame temperature than other cutting methods; the tank can be used in various positions and does not need to be upright during operation, unlike other fuels; and its stability made it safer for deployment in harsh conditions, unlike acetylene.
