“In the Dublin HPCD fuel study, in every case, there was improved performance with HPCD fuel.”
“We are very happy to report, over the last 3 years we saw the smog cloud that hovered over our yard during morning warm-up disappear and have experienced around a 1 MPG improvement and 2/3 less “re-gen cycles” witch has been a big help on keeping our buses on the road reducing down time and tech time.”
“Our tank has never been cleaned for as far back as we know. We will never have to clean our tank again, as long as we are using this [HPCD] process. There’s a savings there.”
“We’ve been real happy with the process. We saw an over 14% improvement in our miles per gallon which is very nice. Seeing a lot greater results which is helping out with the community as well we are investing in the environment and in our fleets.”
“I had one bus that had an idol miss, instead of the injectors spraying, it dribbles which creates a slight miss in the idol. I was going to pull the injector and replace it and I decided to not do that, and see what would happen with this fuel, and it seemed to clear it up. In fact two years without the injector repair, the bus is still running with the same injectors.”
“I admit I was a complete skeptic when first approached with your “High Performance Clean Diesel” fuel claims of a promised 10% improvement in MPG. After personally testing the fuel and collecting the data, I was surprised and pleased with the outcome of our test that showed an average improvement of over 11+% in MPG among other noticeable benefits. While the 11+% fuel savings was our impetus for choosing HPCD fuel, the biggest benefit we are now realizing is the clean fuel itself.With the old standard diesel fuel, we were having many issues with the regeneration process on our new buses. We were servicing the particulate filters on the buses frequently. When that happens the bus is out of service and it causes all kinds of problems in our daily operations. Since the change to your clean HPCD fuel, the regeneration issues and the particulate filters have been almost a non-issue, and this is significant to me. Our operation is running more smoothly, downtime has been dramatically reduced, and there are no black smoke issues with the buses.
After a strong recommendation to our Board, we are happy to run our fleet on HPCD fuel and participate in the Clean Fuels for Schools Initiative.”
“These buses, especially the older ones, used to belch black smoke from the tail pipe, and we just didn’t set that anymore. We’re buying significantly less fuel to transport the same number of students and savings tens of thousands of dollars a year for the taxpayers. My drivers are noticing better acceleration and improved performance and we thing that attributed to HPCD. We are finding that better fuel burns cleaner, and saves money.”
“Berea Schools is leading the way by adopting next-generation solutions and best practices. Today, Berea Schools is operating a Cleaning and Greener fleet and demonstrating we are good stewards of the taxpayers money.”
“My first winter here we had a lot of cold no starts when it was really cold out, I would pull the separator and it would be all jelled up. This winter after a year with the process [HPCD] we haven’t had any issues.”
Public Officials
“I have had the opportunity to review the 18-month City of Dublin diesel fuel summary report prepared by EcoChem Alternative Fuels, covering the period from June, 2011 through the end of the 2012 calendar year. All of the initial data used to prepare this report was supplied by the City of Dublin and was gathered using our fuel tracking software. The data and results included in this report are accurate and the summary is an accurate reflection of various steps that were taken during the 18-month period. The City of Dublin recently renewed our contract with EcoChem for the continued purchase of High Performance Clean Diesel (HPCD). We have been extremely satisfied with the results of the fuel and the associated cost savings. Furthermore, we have found the EcoChem staff to be professional, responsive and focused on continual improvement and innovation.”
“In the future, I plan on reaching out to you for advice and guidance as I try and best represent the people of the 14th Congressional District. I value the work you do in the local community and want to partner so we can accomplish great things together.”
“With 45% of our emissions in the state of Ohio being vehicle emissions, EcoChem’s ability to impact it by 13% is tremendous. This is a prime example of environmental protection and business not having to be mutually exclusive.”
