The resulting bioethanol can cut greenhouse gas emissions by more than 80% compared with conventional fossil fuels. It will predominantly be used in gasoline blending, but it can also be further processed into other products such as drop in jet fuel. barrels of gasoline as well as reducing ArcelorMittal’s CO 2 emissions by 2.3

These tests of typical duty cycles have verified fuel savings of more than 20% for the front-end loader and more than 25% on the telescopic boom handler, with an expected payback in under 18 months for both applications. These functional evaluations include more than 1,000 hours on a 16-tonne (17.5-ton) Powerboost system.
