Clean air is the holy grail of our existence; without which living will be impossible. In the world before technology and industrialization the air was clear and pure. The only worry was putting food on the table for your family. The passing years gave us other problems to ponder; and each year saw to mankind answer the world’s questions through innovations and developments. However, with all these innovations and developments comes a silent killer, and it is as deadly as one who deals damage upfront.
Air pollution is a result of the negligence of mankind. The World Health Organization deemed that around 4.6 million of the entire global population fall victim of the lack of clean air, and that nearly 92% of the population reside in areas where clean air is scarce. Sri Lanka alone has reported 7,792 casualties due to air-pollution related diseases (as of 2019) and it is expected to increase each year.
The United Nations have declared that around 7 million people worldwide die prematurely each year from air pollution, with about 4 millions of these deaths occurring in Asia-Pacific. Air pollution costs the global economy $5 trillion every year in welfare costs. Further, ground-level ozone pollution is expected to reduce staple crop yields by 26% by 2030.
If the global statistics does not cause a trigger, consider the fact that 45% of the admissions of children to hospitals are due to air pollution in Sri Lanka. In an urbanized setting, this might not seem clear, but the true reality can be identified once we venture onto the Nothern Province where lack of clean air is a massive threat for the children's’ overall wellbeing.
A single person alone cannot put a stop to this catastrophe. Each person is responsible to clear up after themselves. The most important thing that needs to consider is the vehicle that is used. It is very convenient to step into a vehicle and rush off to work early in the morning. It might be convenient for the driver, but the carbon emission left in its wake prove otherwise. To give a solution, one must dive into the core cause to such emissions.
The primary cause is identified within the engine of the vehicle, and the nature of the gasoline used as fuel. The fuel is burnt to give the needed drive, and the unburnt particles get sent out of the exhaust into the environment. That is the inconvenience that plagues the entire atmosphere.
That is what is known as combustion. It has to be said that from the quantities of fuel pumped, only a small margin gets burnt, and the rest is released into the environment. That is called partial combustion. In rare occasions, an engine might utilize maximum use of the pumped fuel by burning the entirety, thus leaving minimum traces of emissions. That is termed as complete combustion, that that is what every vehicle owner should strive for.
Best case scenario would be every vehicle permitting complete combustion. That would rid the world of these harmful carbon emissions. The reality is that the combustion is partial and we are responsible to find alternative solutions to cushion the blow. The good news is that there is indeed a solution which can not only cushion the blow, but if used properly, can give a nationwide solution to the extermination of carbon emissions which plague many generations.
The solution comes in the form of Soltron Enzymatic Fuel Treatment. This is an enzyme; a catalytic protein produced naturally by living cells. It shows no after effects and is completely free from bi-products. Soltron comprises of an enzyme package extracted from microbes living in soil, plants (both terrestrial and marine) and crude oil to perform multiple functions in fuel to enhance its combustion properties. They are harmless upon contact, for both users and the engine which it is used in.
Enzymes do not affect thermodynamics, and do not increase the calorific value of substrate fuel. It only helps to extract maximum levels of calories from the fuel and converts it into productive mechanical energy. They lower the activation energy necessary to initiate or sustain chemical reactions, thereby increasing the rate of reaction during combustion. All fossil fuels are made up of hydrocarbons of different sizes and configurations. These structural differences are the root cause for incomplete combustion. Soltron breaks down fuel hydrocarbon structures to the molecular level to make combustion reactions more complete and faster.
Often fuel is the adulterant at 10-30%. Whilst this is legal in Arctic conditions, it is illegal everywhere else. The Soltron Enzyme is applied at 0.01%, 100ppm. This is well below the permitted single aftermarket additive dose of 1%v/v. This improves performance of fuel. These improvements include increased fuel economy, reduced emissions and increased power.
Soltron technology converts partial combustion into complete combustion. Additionally it prevents heavy molecules sinking to the bottom of the tank. That sludge is later on converted into combustible fuel. This, in turn transforms the total volume into usable fuel. This functionality gives Soltron recognition as a natural atomizer (which cleave and breakdown long chains of hydrocarbons). The process is conducted within the tank without the need of heat, pressure nor force. This is termed as “ambient catalytic refining”. This pre-prepared fuel will be a boost to “Pump operation of Petrol/Diesel, Common Rail and EFI systems” which are mechanically designed to be atomized by applying immense force and pressure.
This will perform above average levels to elevate the quality of combustion and its productivity. Thereby it will reduce the work load of catalytic converter; ultimately extending the service life of the unit.
Excess air is supplied in Boilers to compensate partial combustion impurities. The combustion efficiency increases with increased air particles until the heat loss in the excess air is greater than the heat provided by more efficient combustion.
In normal operations, excess air is required to blend partial combustion impurities and to make the stack appear as colourless fumes. Whereas in real terms, toxic emissions are present, but discrete with more air to make it look better. It is estimated that 15% of excess air exist within boilers and it represents 3-4% oxygen levels in the flue gas stack.
Mixing Soltron with fuel upgrades quality and it begins to show a higher oxygen percentage ( 5-7%) compared to the previous values with the same existing excess air supply. Dampers are expected to be closed in order to bring back oxygen levels to its initial state. This minimizes fuel wastage by heating the excess air. Through that it maximizes flame temperature and also heat retains longer within the combustion chamber.
In theory, the need to maintain excess air is redundant due to the superior combustion quality maintained. The fuel is at a better standard after the use of Soltron and it is evident that it prevents environmental pollution. Considering its plethora of functionalities, it is fitting to state that Soltron Enzyme Treatment is a super catalyzer, super cleaner and super saver; an all in one package.
It has been over 46 years since Soltron was first invented in Japan. Soltron became regular face within the Sri Lankan market in 2000. Throughout the years it has evolved into a staple in most of the environment conscious individuals. For them Soltron is something more than a mere commodity; it is a pharmaceutical product which cures the environment from the carbon emissions which are inevitably released through their vehicles. The product is currently sold throughout the globe under different names. Some countries serve the product separately whilst the others offer fuel which is already mixed with the Soltron enzyme as a testament to its unblemished result orientated nature.
In theory, it might seem complicated, but the reality is quite simple. It is merely a treatment, with no after effect or bi products, and it helps take the maximum use of the fuel which is pumped. Leaving all technicalities aside, a vehicle owner can get the maximum mileage out of what is being pumped. It ensures that users can travel much longer distances than before.
Soltron have gone through comprehensive testing in Queen’s University Belfast, England and University of Moratuwa, Sri Lanka. It is proven to be 50% AND 38% emission of pollutants can be reduced through the addition of Soltron. It has the endorsement and recommendation of the Ceylon Petroleum Corporation since 2006. The enzyme can be used with petrol 92, petrol 95, diesel, super diesel, kerosene and furnace oil.
As mankind evolves, the world will overrun with electronic vehicles thus making gasoline powered vehicles obsolete. Until then, it is evident that Soltron Enzymatic Fuel Treatment is the only solution. The global pandemic has left the entire world in pandemonium. Will we permit our children to live with another reason to fear breathing in this beautiful country? The responsible decision is to make sure that each person takes care to reduce their own carbon footprint as much as possible.
The world is not broken as of yet. It is merely bent, and on its way towards destruction. There is still time to make a difference. Collectively, each individual should strive to cure nature in order to nurture our future generations. Soltron Enzymatic Fuel Treatment will help nature get to that state, if it is accepted and embraced as a saving grace.
