Technology | Syntroleum Fuels | Environmental Benefits


The message is clear. Consumers, regulators, policy makers, environmentalists, the global automotive industry and progressive energy companies agree on one crucial point – protecting the environment must be a priority for all.

At Syntroleum, we are committed to producing ultra-clean synthetic fuels that provide a net benefit to the environment. Sulfur and other pollutants that are known to damage the Earth’s atmosphere and environment are virtually absent in the Syntroleum process.

Instead, the ultra-clean synthetic fuels that are produced by Syntroleum can be used in fuel cells and internal combustible engines for automobiles, buses and planes without creating damage to our environment. Studies have shown that Fischer-Tropsch (FT) diesel fuels with the attributes found in Syntroleum diesel fuel reduce emissions and help optimize diesel-engine performance. Syntroleum diesel is free of contaminants, including sulfur, aromatics and heavy metals and demonstrates high operating efficiency.

According to the Energy Information Administration (‘EIA”), market demand for ultra-clean fuels is increasing due to more stringent environmental standards in most of the world’s industrialized nations. At Syntroleum, we are answering that call by providing a cost-effective, environmentally-friendly solution so that today’s vehicle manufactures can respond to the challenge of producing fuel-efficient engines with clean-burning Syntroleum fuel.
