Can FPC be used with biodiesel fuels?
A. Yes, FPC can be used with any hydrocarbon fuel. The thermodynamic function of the combustion process is to break carbon-carbon and carbon-hydrogen bonds and form carbon-oxygen and hydrogen-oxygen bonds. The difference between the energy of formation of these two states is the net energy (BTU’s) released in the combustion process. FPC is a catalytic agent which works to improve this transformation resulting in fewer unburned or incompletely burned products and more BTU’s generated. This gives rise to the improvements in fuel economy experienced by the use of FPC. These reactions can occur on any hydrocarbon fuel, petroleum based or bio based.
