ALE Is Developing A New Category Of Fuels That Promises To Be More Sustainable And Economical, In Addition To Keeping Vehicle Engines Clean

The fuel distributor ALE launched a product from a new category of fuels this week, called Energy fuel, which is more sustainable and efficient. Also referred to as energy transition fuels, the new line, composed of gasoline, S10 diesel, ethanol, and S500 diesel, underwent research and testing over the past three years before its launch.

New Category Of Fuels From ALE Achieves 30% Less Pollution

The test results show a consumption savings of at least 7%, certified and verified by organizations linked to the United Nations (UN), along with an average reduction of 30% in pollutant emissions compared to products currently available in the national market.

The new category of fuels created by ALE includes a high-performance combustion catalyst based on liquid nanotechnology and additives that keep the engine clean and purify deposits in vehicle injection systems.

To prove its efficiency, ALE’s fuels underwent several tests and received certifications from the United Nations Institute for Training and Research (Unitar), an auditing branch of Cifal Argentina, one of the international centers that make up the Unitar and UN Global Network. The expectation is that the new line of Energy Fuels will be available at ALE service stations by the end of this year.

Energy Is Tested In Brazil

According to ALE’s Marketing and Retail Director, Diego Pires, the Energy fuel family enters the market to offer technology that provides energy efficiency by reducing fuel consumption and pollutant emissions into the environment.

In addition to the ALE quality seal, the products feature a new formula that enhances the ability to clean the injector system, reduce the emission of polluting gases, and generate savings in consumption.

The new line also underwent testing conducted by the technical team of the Mobility Technology Center, which is part of the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the Federal University of Minas Gerais (UFMG), where the results of efficiency, consumption reduction, and emissions reduction were confirmed through various practical and theoretical tests.

According to Fabrício Pujatti, a professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at UFMG, the standard protocol was necessary to verify the energy efficiency of the new category of Energy fuels. Measurement methodologies were used in vehicles, where a track was selected for controlled driving.

Tests Used 10 Ride-Hailing Drivers

The university had the vehicles traveling the space simultaneously, following a cycle that clearly defined the speed change, braking, and gear shifting to achieve the so-called repeatability of the test.

The tests were carried out with 10 ride-hailing drivers, using passenger cars produced in the country, who drove on a racetrack for three days, with all the technical apparatus to analyze fuel consumption per kilometer traveled. According to Pujatti, afterward, the vehicles drove on the streets of Belo Horizonte and the metropolitan region for an average of 250 kilometers daily over 10 days.

The performance of engines with common fuels was also evaluated and then with Energy fuel. Energy efficiency tests on 5 transport vehicles were also conducted, running on S10 Energy diesel fuel.
