Clean Fuel Process Aims to Cut Diesel-Based Air Pollution in Half
Utah biofuel innovations company Argo Fuels has developed a fuel processor that creates high-quality synthetic diesel from waste. This process fits within a 40-foot shipping container and significantly reduces time and energy costs relative to industry standard. The fuel produced burns 90% cleaner than traditional diesel. To scale-up production, the company has launched a crowdfunding campaign.
Logan, UT, July 24, 2015 --(PR.com)-- Poor air quality continues to present a health risk to communities around the world. Biofuel innovations company Argo Fuels has developed a new fuel processor that improves air quality while reducing the economic and environmental costs associated with a dependence on petroleum-based fuel. This NanoCatalyst™ fuel processor uses nontraditional inputs to create high-quality, cleaner-burning bio-synthetic diesel for one-third of the cost of current industry processors.
The NanoCatalyst™ processor offers several improvements to current industry standards. Unlike traditional refineries, this process is scalable and portable with an ultra-low carbon footprint. An entire processor with an eight million gallon-per-year output capacity can be packed into a single forty-foot shipping container. Cutting energy costs in half, this processor can reach full reaction in four minutes, a significant reduction compared to existing processes (which take up to two hours). As one of only a few companies able to rely wholly upon second generation feedstocks, Argo Fuels can efficiently create fuel from otherwise unusable wastes. Synthetic diesel produced in this way burns ninety percent cleaner than petroleum diesel; even a twenty percent blend with petroleum diesel reduces C02 emissions alone by fifteen percent.
Ray Dellinger, inventor of the NanoCatalyst™ Processor, is the founder and CEO of Argo Fuels. “The potential benefits from the NanoCatalyst™ are incredible,” Dellinger explains. “If consumers want a safe, high-quality alternative to petroleum-based diesel, this project paves the way for clean fuel, cleaner air, and sustainable energy that doesn’t break the bank.”
Dellinger hopes to raise environmental awareness and help consumers understand their ability to bring eco-friendly innovation into their daily lives. In an effort to do so, Argo Fuels launched an Indiegogo crowdfunding campaign on July 21, 2015. This campaign will raise the necessary capital for Argo Fuels to purchase initial feedstocks and prepare for large-scale production.
“Our entire company is focused on bringing clean fuel innovation to communities. Just like we hope to ship our processors all over the world, we hope that individuals will feel empowered to make a difference by participating in our Indiegogo campaign,” Dellinger says.
The Indiegogo campaign will be live between July 21, 2015 and August 18, 2015 and can be found here: http://igg.me/at/7awUHOIO9Y8/x
