WHO CAN USE PURE PLANT OIL ? Pure Plant Oil has a number of fundamental differences when compared to mineral based diesel fuels. Firstly it is far more viscose, and secondly it has an increased ‘flashpoint’ (actually far safer than normal diesel).Verdant Fuel is a high quality fuel derived from rapeseed and is a diesel substitute. Most current diesel engine vehicles (commercial and domestic) can be easily modified to operate on this fuel using Elsbett technology. The conversion is a simple process that involves the fitting of a fuel management system that reduces the viscosity of the fuel prior to it being injected into the engine. Engine conversions take approximately a day to complete, and once done your vehicle will run equally well on normal diesel or Verdant Fuel's Pure Plant Oil. If necessary the two can even be mixed but the greatest enviornmental benefits and cost savings come from using as much Verdant Fuel as possible. Elsbett is the world leader in this conversion technology and has been refining the science for some 30 years. Thousands of vehicles and diesel engines worldwide are running on Elsbett technology; ranging from domestic cars and commercial lorry fleets right through to agricultural machinery, construction equipment, boats, trains and other diesel engined machinery like generators.

PICTURE REFERENCE NUMBERS: - TBA (PHOTOGRAPHIC) REF:005/6 Elsbett have a number of partners based around the U.K. and will be more than happy to suggest the right Elsbett converted engine for you. The best results are achieved with Elsbett technology from an Elsbett adapted vehicle. However, it is also possible to buy Elsbett technology to fit to existing vehicles.

Once you have your Elsbett vehicle, Verdant Fuels can provide regular deliveries of fuel stock and advise on suitable storage facilities, we can even supply storage tanks for domestic users. Click here for more information on fuel supply and storage. Remember – with Elsbett technology you can continue to use diesel or even a mixture of PPO and diesel or just PPO, so you will never be left stranded if you run out of pure plant oil away from home. Verdant Fuel does have plans to establish a network of self-service fuel distribution points around the U.K. - watch our website for further information. Elsbett technology is well proven over many years and this is recognised by Europe's major insurance companies. So, although vehicle manufacturers' warranties do not apply to the parts of the vehicle affceted by the use of pure plant oil, Elsbett can offer an insurance policy for commercial vehicles to replace the original warranty. Elsbett is working on arranging similar cover for its "Elsbett adapted" passenger cars. Reliable engine performance depends on good quality fuel which is why all Elsbett's warranties insist on Verdant Fuel. Unlike biodiesel which has about 8% less energy than diesel, users of Verdant Fuel with Elsbett technology find no operational differences between using PPO and normal diesel. Many users maintain that power output and fuel efficiency have even been improved. Verdant Fuel has a lower sulphur content than diesel and burns with approximately half the quantity of soot; moreover the soot particles are less harmful to health than diesel particles. Nitrous oxide emissions are typically equivalent to those produced from normal diesel and are effectively reduced by modern Euro V systems in commercial vehicles.
