I don't think it's microwaving in the sense you're thinking of it, Kramer. What it does is "crack" the complex hydrocarbon fuels into cleaner burning and more efficient simpler hydrocarbon fuels and allows for the use of fuels that wouldn't normally work in a conventional gasoline or diesel engine. I'll see if I can find some links that describe the process better than I can.
