E85 + N2O = Big Power
The big power here is O2 Technology, the leader in combustion engine technology. O2 Technology focuses on lending technical solutions where alternate fuels such as nitrous oxide and E85 are used. Log on to http://www.o2-technology.com, and you will realize what the scientists at O2 Technology have contributed to the world in terms of their E-85 and Nitrous Oxide technology and a variety of products such as the fuel systems, pressure gauge systems, filters, etc., which are compatible with E-85 and Nitrous Oxide.
E85 - The name sounds more technical; isn’t it? E-85 stands for 85% Ethanol, and the remaining 15% is gasoline, the fuel which we are worried about.
The demand for a better fuel is always there. As the global powers are heating up to unearth the future fuel of engines, a master technology in this field is what intelligent people will ponder of. No doubt, O2 Technology proves their intelligence and worth by introducing the technology for such fuels in the auto industry. As per the E-85 dyno results, the E-85 proves to be equally powerful as gasoline.
Ethanol is much cheaper than petrol, and it is easily obtained from many sources such as the sugar cane, a variety of grains, which contain starch, and also almost all fruits. The process of distilling is also comparatively cheaper and trouble-free. Though alcohol is less combustible than petrol, it is found that the presence of air molecules in the compound adds to the efficiency by producing more power in each combustion. Therefore, there is no compromise on the efficiency when compared to a petrol engine. E-70, a 70:30 ethanol: gasoline fuel is also available in the market.
The environmental-friendly effects of E-85 are multifold. The official US report green-signals E-85 stating that the emission of hydrocarbons and benzenes from these engines is considerably lower than that in gasoline-run engines. The amount of carbon dioxide produced during the combustion of ethanol is in turn recycled for the production of the crops, which produce the raw materials for the manufacture of ethanol. By allowing the CO2, the pollutant responsible for the green house effect, we can reduce the global warming. As ethanol is easily degradable in water, the waste does not cause any threat to nature’s water bodies.
O2 Technology is happy about the E-85 Dyno Results. The data they collected in the survey substantiates the fact that E-85 is better than the conventional fuels. The alcohol – petrol combination of the fuel makes the engine run cooler and draw less power than the gasoline-run engines.
Quick Fuel Technology also finds its place in this remarkable technological achievement along with O2 Technology for assisting the later in the E-85 project.
With more pressure on car companies and racing partners to avoid the lead-based fuel from the streets, the demand for E-85 and such alternate fuels is increasing. The National Street Car Association has decided to approve E-85 as the future fuel for their American Muscle Car and the Street Machine (racing class) models.
