Clean Air Act
A small San Diego company is playing a big role in reducing air pollution in Beijing as China clears the air for the 2008 Olympics.
Local Firm Cleaning the Air for Beijing Olympics
Four years from now, when athletes from around the world descend on Beijing, China, for the 2008 Olympics, the air quality will be noticeably better due to reduced emissions from the city's buses and other vehicles. The same will be true in Shanghai for soccer's World Cup in 2010.
Fueling a City's Needs
California's Chula Vista residents are adding another health craze to their list — using a blend of biodiesel and ester to reduce fuel emissions from garbage trucks. Used in collection trucks by San Diego-based Pacific Waste Services (PWS), the biodiesel/ester concoction is made from 80 percent diesel and a 20 percent mix of biodiesel and Ethos Fuel Reformulator (Ethos FR), named B20 Ethos. B20 Ethos costs PWS an estimated $50,000 more per year than diesel. Nevertheless, PWS says the increased fuel efficiency makes up for the difference. Ethos FR also helps to reduce truck maintenance. The fuel removes carbon deposits and automatically cleans and lubricates the engine's internal parts without using petroleum-derived solvents,...

Alternative Fuels and the Marketplace
European regulators favor diesel fuel in order to stabilize greenhouse gas emissions. They are using cleaner-burning diesel fuels and using "green" diesel technology that captures significant amounts of particulates. Clearly the answer isn't simply to choose one over the other, either fuel is a choice that requires an environmental trade off.
Pacific Waste Services News Conference
Sixty-two vehicles of the solid waste hauling company -- including trash, yard waste, recycling and container transport trucks -- now run on a blend of B20 (20% biodiesel with 80% standard diesel), in conjunction with Ethos FR, a patented ester formula.
"Ethos FR is a non-toxic, non-hazardous blend of esters in a mineral oil base. It is free of carcinogens and is not derived from petroleum. Ethos FR works with any fuel (diesel, biodiesel, gasoline, and CNG) to clean and lubricate the internal parts of an engine without the use of petroleum-derived solvents commonly found in fuel additives....Increases fuel economy by making engines combust fuel more completely. Commercial fleets on average increase fuel economy between 7% and 19% and reduce emissions by more than 30%."
New Fuel: Waste Fleet Burns Biodiesel blend
Pacific Waste Services is taking a two-step approach to convert its fleet to reduce polution emissions by more than 500 tons per year.
