cleaner air

	typical before and after

Power generated by fossil fuels is a major cause of air pollution, global warming and climate change.

For every liter of gasoline (petrol) we use, 2.4 kg of carbon dioxide (the major contributor to Greenhouse Gas) is released from the exhaust. With diesel fuel, this figure is 2.7 kg/liter.

If we can reduce the fuel consumption by 12% (which the Fuelstar will do) then we reduce the emissions of Greenhouse Gas by 12%.

For the average car traveling between 20,000 and 30,000 km per annum, this will amount to a reduction in GHG by 0.5 to 1.0 tonne per annum, depending on the size of car. For the average truck traveling between 150,000 and 250,000 km/year this will amount to a reduction by 25 to 30 tonnes per year.

For diesel power generation and ships, the reduction in GHG brought about by Fuelstar can amount to thousands of tonnes per annum.

In addition to this absolute reduction in tailpipe emissions the Fuelstar, in providing a more complete combustion, will reduce the emission of certain other components. In particular, the emissions from diesel engines of black smoke, soot, particulate matter and nitrous oxides are substantially reduced. Generally, the more black smoke, the greater the extent of the improvement. In most cases, the Fuelstar will bring about a reduction in black smoke by 30 to 50%. In many cases, the installation of a Fuelstar will make the difference between meeting and not meeting annual emission checks.

Expected reduction in pollution

Particulate matter.......typically 20% plus overall 12% = >30%
Opacity (black smoke)...... typically 50% plus overall 12% = >60%
NOx.......typically 15% plus overall 12% = >25%
SO2..... typically reduced to zero
CO2.....typically reduced by 12%
THC....typically 30% plus overall 12% = > 30%

Fuelstar should be installed to all engines to reduce absolute emissions but, in particular to passenger buses, passenger trains, passenger ferries and liners, charter boats, food carrying delivery vehicles, commercial fishing boats and engines operating in confined areas such as in-store forklift trucks and underground mining operations.

With gasoline engines, Fuelstar is far more effective than a catalytic converter in reducing emissions, see report.

With diesel engines, Fuelstar will eliminate emissions of sulfur, see report.

Keep the air we breathe cleaner by installing a Fuelstar.

The Fuelstar canister is easy to fit and will usually outlive the engine.

Different sizes of Fuelstar canisters are available for different sizes of engine.

Life of Fuelstar: 2 million km (1.2 million miles) or 25,000 engine operating hours in the case of an off-road or stationary engine.
