FUEL TECHNOLOGY

Refuel America's fuels include a proprietary, complex formula which positively alters the combustion characteristics of the fuel. This results in a finished fuel with increased miles per gallon, improved lubricity and reduced harmful emissions (including carbon monoxide, nitrous oxides, particulates and "black smoke"). The technical effectiveness of prior art has been demonstrated over a number of years and confirmed by many independent laboratories.

The all new Refuel America Technology (patents pending) significantly improves the economics and performance of Williamson and Hazels prior art. A summary of the properties of each typical fuel vs. the corresponding Refuel America fuel follows:

E85 (85% Fuel Ethanol, 15% Gasoline):

The fuel is designed specifically to co-solve ethanol and gasoline to improve storage and handling as a clear thermally stable blend, and to reduce Carbon monoxide, nox and CO2 emissions. The technology makes up for the typical loss of performance with ethanol blends. Refuel America's technology enables a clear homogenous solution, eliminating typical problems with water separation (cold start) and thereby improving combustion.

B20 (20% Agri-Biodiesel, 80% Conventional Diesel):

The fuel is designed to create a repairable mono-layer within the fuel system, homogenize any free inherent water with the host fuel and deliver to the point of combustion with an enhanced spray pattern for more complete combustion. The advent of low sulfur, low aromatic fuels has led to more free water than before (as aromatics and sulfur harbor water) and made Refuel America’s B20 even more desirable in the market. It is the only B20 in the world that does not increase NOx.
