Fuel
of the Future
Biodiesel is a renewable fuel that can replace petroleum
diesel directly in current engines and can be transported
and sold using today's existing petroleum logistics infrastructure.
It does not get any simpler than that.
Advantages of Biodiesel:
Safety. Biodiesel is non-flammable, and
in contrast to petroleum diesel, it is non-explosive,
with a flash point of 300°F for biodiesel as compared
to 150°F for petroleum diesel.
Biodegradable and non-toxic. Being a "natural"
fuel, it is biodegradable and non-toxic. According to
the National Biodiesel Board, biodiesel breaks down 4
to 5 times faster than mineral diesel. Hence in case of
any spillage of biodiesel into water systems, the environmental
impact is minimal.
Meets the strictest diesel emission standards in the
world. Biodiesel is naturally almost free of sulphur
(max. 0.001 percent and thereby at the limit of its detectability).
And because the biodiesel molecule contains more than
10 percent of oxygen, the oxygen leads to an improved
combustion and thereby to substantially less soot. If
biodiesel is used to fuel all transport vehicles, smog
will become a thing of the past.
Biodiesel Reduces Emissions Carbon monoxide
is reduced by approximately 50% and carbon dioxide by
more than 75%.
 Biodiesel
is good for the engine. It has superior
lubricity and significantly reduces engine wear. Due to
this highly valuable quality, biodiesel is often used
as an additive to petroleum diesel fuel. In addition,
biodiesel has a higher cetane rating than petroleum diesel,
and therefore ignites more rapidly when injected into
the engine. This gives more power to the engine.
Can be blended with petroleum diesel. Biodiesel
can be mixed with petroleum diesel in any ratio due to
their similar chemical structure. The mixture is stable
and cannot be separated by mechanical means.
Can also be blended with petroleum heating oil.
Bioheat is a blend of Biodiesel and petroleum based heating
oil creating a cleaner burning home heating fuel. Use
Metro GreenHeat™ for all your heating needs for
your home and business.
Available today and works immediately.
The technology is simple and well-developed. Metro
BioMax™ and GreenHeat™ Biofuels are
available today for use in current /existing diesel engines
and home heating systems.
Save our environment and improve our health with
cleaner air - Use Metro BioMax™ Biodiesel which is
made from only virgin soy oil.
