Fuel Technology, LLC and Mudiame University Emerge 2nd Best Award in Nigeria with AquaCharged DieselTM
....“Everyone will benefit from this. Prices of food and other products in the market are going up because of the cost of diesel for transportation. It reduces operating temperature and reduces pollution of the environment. The product also align with sustainable development goals,” he stated.
Izevbigie, who put daily consumption of diesel in Nigeria at about 10.3 million said the production of the aqua-diesel would begin in the country with about one per of the country’s total demand and scale up gradually.
Chief Operating Officer at Fuel Technology, LLC, USA, Dr. Sina Davani said the adoption of the diesel would lead to lower emissions, cleaner carbon footprint, and an improvement in engine performance.
The Diesel, according to him, transforms the soot shell formation with the assistance of water vapor/steam....

Fuel Technology, LLC and Mudiame University Emerge 2nd Best With AquaCharged DieselTM Product To Cut Cost and Emissions in Nigeria
....Chief Operating Officer at Fuel Technology, LLC, USA, Dr. Sina Davani, said the adoption of the diesel would lead to lower emissions, cleaner carbon footprint, and an improvement in engine performance.
The diesel, according to him, transforms the soot shell formation with the assistance of water vapor/steam.
The water vapor/steam, Davani said converts the soot/char into carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen gas, through the “Micro-Explosion Phenomenon” an increase in fuel burn is now possible during the combustion cycle.
The formation of the soot shell during the combustion cycle of a diesel engine regulates the diesel fuel in the shell to fully combust, thus reducing the fuel efficiency, Davani noted.
He disclosed that water aids in an increased heating rate by a factor of about 1.5 times causing the piston to descend much quicker in a naturally aspirated diesel engine (non-turbo equipped)....

Fuel Technology to help organisations reduce OPEX by 50% with AquaCharged DieselTM
....Prof. Dr. Izevbigie said the new solution would address the challenges businesses are currently facing, noting that companies who currently require about 100 litres of diesel would only require half of the cost of the same quantity at less cost to the generator as well as the environment. Chief Operating Officer at Fuel Technology, LLC, USA, Dr. Sina Davani said the adoption of the diesel would lead to lower emissions, cleaner carbon footprint, and an improvement in engine performance.

Nigerian Federal Government lauds on invention of Aq-Diesel
....Chief Engr., Fuel Technology, USA, Dr. Sina Davani, said Nigeria is the first country outside the USA to have had access to Aq-Diesel and Mudiame University is the first to have used it in Nigeria.
When asked on his motive for the invention of the Aq-Diesel and if the government could come in, he said “I think there is a possibility to involve the government in this .
“Our goal is to lower the cost for the end consumers. We want the fuel to be affordable with the person at the pump, at the gas stations to be lower and I think if the government is willing to go partner with Fuel Technology USA and Mudiame University, I think it is very good.”
On his part, founder, Mudiame University, Prof. S. E. Eromosele, said Russian and Ukraine war has further increased the energy crisis across the globe and that, Nigerians should take advantage of Aq-Diesel to meet their energy demand.
Also speaking, the Vice Chancellor of the institution, Prof. Ernest B.Izevbigie, said the product can be available to Nigerians at the market within two months just as he called on investors to invest in the project....

What happens when you mix oil and water?
Wichita engineers say it makes a better diesel
....Oil and water don’t typically mix well, but a Wichita-based biofuel company, Fuel Technology, is using this combination as a promising biodiesel that can reduce greenhouse gas emissions, improve fuel economy, and lower diesel expenses, too. Driving down the highway, you may have seen black clouds of smoke puffing out from semi-trailers. A typical diesel engine is what emits a lot of this soot, which is a leading cause of hazy skies and can lead to health issues such as asthma. Fuel Technology is patenting a method of combining water and diesel in a way that it converts the soot generated in the normal diesel-burning process into carbon monoxide and hydrogen gas, which are less harmful and reduce greenhouse gas emissions....
