Reduce carbon emissions and improve fuel economy with new environmental fuel treatment
In January 2008 ChemEcol UK Limited launched their brand new D3 and G1 fuel treatments which are proven to reduce fuel consumption and emissions of greenhouse gases and other toxic pollutants.
In response to increasing concerns over depleting oil reserves, global warming and effect of transport emissions on health, ChemEcol have made their fuel technology available through the retail trade to individual users. Industrial users, including local authorities, have already experienced the benefits over many years.
ChemEcol's patented technology builds on the fundamental chemistry of combustion to enhance the flame consuming the fuel in an engine. This break through in technology produces less nitrogen oxides and other emissions e.g. PM10, PAH and hydrocarbons and derives more energy from the fuel.
A fuel consumption improvement was measured by AUTOCAR (reported in the January 16th, 2008 issue) at an average of 3% and they awarded the maximum possible of 5 stars to the products stating "Its effective and cheap... What's not to like?" That reduction in fuel consumption is mirrored by an equal drop in carbon dioxide emissions which helps to reduce global warming. So, an average 3 car family can save as much as a fifth of a tonne in CO2 emissions annually using ChemEcol's fuel treatments.
Further, recent research in Boston, USA, revealed that transport pollutants have an impact on child development. New Scientist magazine reported that pollutant emissions can reduce a child's IQ score by as much as 3 points.
Also, diesel engine particulate emissions are very damaging to human health. In June 2007 the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy made a press release citing 10,000 UK deaths per year are attributable to particulate size of 10 microns or smaller (PM10), with 25% of UK atmospheric PM10 attributable to transport. ChemEcol's D3 is proven to reduce these ultra small particulate emissions by as much as 45% which means that if every diesel user adopted the product we could save more than 1,200 lives a year
