Technology.

This page wll be continuosly updated. Keep coming back for more information, as our progress is dynamic and constantly evolving.
Cleanfuture has one major technology that is currently being commercialised, and that is the Diesel Gas Mixer.
- In short what this does is allows a diesel engine to run on a dual fuel mix of diesel and LPG/CNG/LNG and if for any reason the gas is not available, the engine can continue on diesel only until the gas tank can be refuelled. This is a truly unique feature that our competitors struggle with. The best subsitution comes with CNG/LNG where substitution rates of up to 80% are possible depending on engine type, whereas LPG is up to 30% substitution. In any case, both gas types yield significant savings in engine running costs.
- The device is a simple mechanical device, integrated with smart technology that ensures that by monitoring engine settings and performance, can adjust the engines operations to prevent damage, and also allows the owner of the truck to "dial in" to the truck at any time and monitor its performance, and if necessary, adjust engine settings whilst the engine is in operation.
- Another technology that is under patent application is a portable high temperature incinerator using natural gas as the fuel that reaches temperatures high enough to leave inert compounds and steam as the end products. It is a substantially cheaper method than the current high temperature incinerator solutions.
- We are looking for a financial partner or Joint Venture partner for this technology, and some of the funds we are seeking to raise will be used to further test and prototype this exciting technology.
- A patent application is being prepared for a fuel conditioning technique that increase fuel combustion, and hence fuel efficiency. More details will be posted once the patent application is applied for.
- A device that allows renewable fuels such as biodiesel is under development, and will be disclosed once the patent is applied for.
