The following case study demonstrates the effectiveness of GFT/Liquid in improving Performance, Fuel Consumption and Lower Emissions of a Marine Cargo Ship.

This case study demonstrates the effectiveness of GFT/Liquid on a Marine Cargo Ship. Performance, Fuel Consumption and Lower Emissions were recorded during the treatment of over One Million Gallons of diesel fuel. Overall results combined a 12.3% increase in speed/performance, plus a 7.3% decrease in fuel consumption, netting a 19.6% total performance gain. A 22% emissions reduction was also achieved. With some adjustments, these substantial benefits could be tuned toward fuel savings or; more toward performance and speed of the vessel without increasing fuel costs. GFT/Liquid also significantly reduced sludge (by more than 33%) in a number of the properly operating engines that were measured. There is still more room for GFT/Liquid to optimize combustion in this ship's engines. Long-term fuel treatment is expected to further reduce fuel consumption, increasing performance and eliminating emissions.

The decrease in emissions from 5.2% to 2.7% represents a 48% reduction in the first two months using Green Fuel Tab treated fuel.

Anaheim Fleet Maintenance Building where emissions testing for Green Fuel Tabs was doneGreen Fuel Tabs conducted a test with the City of Anaheim Fleet Maintenance Division. The documents that are attached with this case study are the before and after test results by Fleet Maintenance on one of the City's Police Commercial Enforcement vehicles. A Baseline test was performed that followed SAE J1667 Procedures and Standards, and performed on a CalTest 1000 SmokeMeter. The average reading from the Smoke Opacity from the test was 5.2%. 

After the Baseline Test was performed, the vehicle began using Green Fuel Tabs with the next fill-up, and each subsequent fill-up of fuel. The Police Utility truck being tested was driven intermittently for approximately two (2) months time using Green Fuel Tabs. An identical test was then conducted...
