BENEFITS

4 STAGES OF POWER LOSS

BAD DOSAGE

BAD DOSAGE

The injection systems require an ISO 11/8/7 diesel for dosing the fuel optimally. The wrong dosing of the injector due to the presence of particles is synonymous with loss of power and therefore greater consumption of fuel up to 5%.

COMPRESSION LOSS

COMPRESSION LOSS

The particles in the combustion chamber will cause premature wear in the cylinders, generating premature loss of compression which becomes loss of power and greater fuel consumption over the useful life of the engine of up to 7%.

CONTAMINATED LUBRICANT

CONTAMINATED LUBRICANT

The lubricant contaminated with particles raises friction and temperature, causing up to 2-3% loss of power and greater fuel consumption.

PREMATURE SATURATION OF DPF

PREMATURE SATURATION OF DPF

The pressure drop of particulate filters are causing up to 2% of loss of power and greater fuel consumption due to the combustioned particles.

IMPACTS OVER TIME

SHORT TERM

RELATED TO COMBUSTION

These savings are directly related to combustion (complete / incomplete) When an engine has a complete/clean combustion, it requires less fuel to generate the power/explosion required.

MEDIUM TERM

Related to OIL CLEANLINESS

By keeping a clean combustion (11/8/3) and a clean engine (16/14/12) less contamination (soot) is generated; therefore, the lubricant stays cleaner and oil changes are extended with lower wear rates, friction, temperature and fuel consumption.

LONG TERM

RELATED TO WEAR

By maintaining a clean combustion, and thus a clean engine, the cylinders and internal parts extend their useful life and compression is kept within optimal parameters for a longer period of time. We must remember that when you lose compression, greater acceleration is required to obtain the same power and this means additional fuel consumption.

ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS

DIESEL ISO 11/8/7 ULTRA CLEAN AND DRY

1 MILLION GALLONS ANNUALLY

It stops emitting 1,527.25 metric tons of emissions gases and 47,300 grams of PM, equivalent to 83.33 trees per metric ton, this would be interpreted as planting 127,270 trees per year.

SOURCES

#1

The joint regulation by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) established a final rule for Greenhouse Gas Emission Standards on May 7, 2010. The agreed emission factor is 10,180 g of CO₂ per gallon of diesel consumed, equivalent to 2.69 kg per liter of diesel (Federal Register 2010).

#2

Carbon footprint is calculated using the formula "Carbon footprint = Activity Data x Emission Factor". Activity data defines the emission-generating activity level, while the emission factor represents emissions per unit of activity, 2.69 kg of CO₂ per liter of diesel. The result is the amount of CO₂ emitted.

#3

A tree can capture between 10 and 30 kg of CO₂ per year, depending on the species, size, location, and environmental conditions. According to the National Commission of Natural Protected Areas of the Mexican Government, a tree captures an average of 12 kg of CO₂ annually and produces enough oxygen for a family of 4 people.

POSITIVE IMPACTS
ON PUBLIC HEALTH

FMS provides expert solutions that achieve ultra-clean diesel fuels, in optimal ISO 4406 parameters, reducing the generation of emission gases:

CO₂ (carbon dioxide): respirable, greenhouse gas (global warming)
CO (carbon monoxide): causes heart diseases
PM (soot microparticles): affects respiration, enhances allergies, promotes cancer
HC (unburned hydrocarbons): affects respiration and promotes cancer
NO_X (nitrogen oxides): irritates mucous membranes, affects breathing, promotes cancer

HARMFUL GASES

According to World Health Organization, ambient air pollution, both in cities and rural areas, was responsible for 4.2 million premature deaths worldwide per year; due to exposure to PM2.5 particles which cause cancer, respiratory and cardiovascular diseases.
