Diesel Brewing Environment

ENVIRONMENT

ur national desire to become less dependent on foreign oil and fossil fuels, coupled with an urgency to reduce the harmful environmental consequences of petroleum-based products, has resulted in the rapid development and demand for cleaner alternative fuels. Unfortunately, some current biofuels derived from food-based crops have negative environmental consequences. So, rather than providing an ecological solution, they are actually contributing to the problem.

Diesel Brewing is devoted to producing a “new generation” of cleaner biofuels, derived from nonfood based (cellulosic feedstock) waste products that deliver the greatest benefit to the environment and the public. Diesel Brewing production technologies are less resource and land intensive and will produce fuels that will maximize fuel efficiency, minimize harmful emissions and can be used with standard fuels and existing distribution infrastructure. Diesel Brewing is committed to energy independence, as well as being responsible to the environment.

Environmental Benefits

The suite of liquid fuels manufactured by Diesel Brewing are cleaner burning than some existing alternative fuels and will emit substantially fewer harmful pollutants into the air including carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxide, and sulfur particulates.

Diesel Brewing will utilize nonedible waste products for feedstock which are currently underutilized or wasted entirely. These products would normally be disposed in dump sites, burned into the atmosphere or dispersed over the landscape.

The Diesel Brewing process of converting cellulosic biomass to liquid fuels is a carbon negative process!

The gasification process requires very little demand on local energy resources including electricity, water or natural gas. The electricity required for each plant will be generated from recycled waste heat.

The local production of liquid fuels will avoid rail, barge or interstate transportation required in the removal of waste products, as well as the delivery of petroleum-based transportation fuels.
