Reduce Emissions
Whether you are a believer in climate change or a sceptic, we all can agree that reducing pollution levels is a worthwhile endeavour. Independent testing of SGD+ in a range of equipment and machines showed significant reduction in particulate matter and emission gases.
The actual level of reduction in emissions are dependent on a number of important factors including quality of diesel fuel, type of engine, state of tuning, fuel pump settings, workload demand on the engine, engine temperature, engine maintenance level, etc. Hence actual reduction in emission levels will be equipment and organisation dependent.
Reduce Fuel Consumption
Australia is one of the largest consumer of diesel fuels in the world using many billions of litres of the fuel each year. Diesel is used in a wide range of industries such as mining, transport and freight, power generation and manufacturing/industry.
It is estimated that every 1000 litres of diesel fuel generates about 2.5 tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent emission during combustion. Hence a meagre reduction in fuel consumption of 1% to 2% will reduce carbon dioxide emissions by many million tonnes. SGD+ helps industry reduce fuel consumption which directly results in reduction in carbon footprint. This goes a long way to doing our bit for the environment.
SGD+ is a modern bio-fuel based on emerging technology. It has seen early commercialisation and is postioned for full commercialisation in the next few years.

SGD+ is a 100% bio-oil without any inorganic additives or chemicals. Hence it is 100% environmentally friendly. SGD+ when added to fuels has shown significant reduction in polluting and green house gases.
Emission factors for calculating direct emissions are generally expressed in the form of a quantity of a given GHG emitted per unit of energy (kg CO2-e /GJ), fuel (t CH4/t coal) or a similar measure. Emission factors are used to calculate GHG emissions by multiplying the factor (e.g. kg CO2/GJ energy in petrol) with activity data (e.g. kilolitres x energy density of petrol used).
Typical greenhouse gases are carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous dioxide and synthetic gases (eg. HFCs, SF6, CF4, C2F6). For a detailed report and analysis see:
