[SIZE=10pt]SPECIAL FEATURES[/SIZE]
Enhanced sustainable biofuel capable of enhancing engine performance while being reasonably priced[SIZE=10pt].[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Strengths:[/SIZE]
Sustainable Biofuel: Enhanced biofuel meets and exceeds current liquid biofuels in lubrication and density. With the increase of availability of alternative fuels, the economic strain has lessened, allowing this fuel to become more widely available. It yields lower emissions of particles, greenhouse effects, and to a moderate degree, its ions emissions cools faster to burn clean.
[SIZE=10pt]Weaknesses:[/SIZE]
Flammable: This is a fuel product and it is highly flammable to blasters and energy shots. Lightsaber strikes may also combust it, allowing for flames to produce if sparks make contact. Requires mandatory flammable decals and should be transported in secure MTX fuel containers.
[SIZE=10pt]DESCRIPTION[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]PharmaTech's Research and development team with the conception of the "Eden Project" have been sending scouts, researchers, and used it's vast resources under Arceneau Trade's Colagoramate's arsenal to go forth and try to find new species of plants and botanicals that may produce new medicines, technology, or sustainable energy sources.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Enter the Dorumaa Algae. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]While algae using CO2 to generate fat is not new, it’s the amount of fat produced by the algae that’s noteworthy. Fatty algae make the strain more fit to eventually produce biofuels at an industrial scale. Success in developing algae-based biodiesel at commercial levels will provide a number of tangible benefits. The fuel emits fewer greenhouse gases than most conventional energy sources, and that will help strengthen our ongoing transition to low-emission energy resources. Also, unlike other biofuel feedstocks, such as corn, algae production at an industrial scale would not stress food production.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Thus, it was decided to attempt to research how to enhance the algae's benefits. Under the research of the Eden Program, Morodin, Ho'din, and Ithorian horticulturalists and botanists used the Morodin's natural slime to enhanced the naturally high-fat content of the algae.The most distinctive feature of the Morodins was their ability to secrete a nutrient slime trail that promoted growth and mutation in plant life that it covered. The composition of the secretion varied with the Morodin's diet, and they were always experimenting with new combinations by eating plants, exuding the secretion to create a new, more nutritious, strain of flora which then entered their food chain.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]This resulted in an enhanced Doruma Algae bloom, allowing an increase in fat and enhancing its oxidizing abilities. It is currently cultivated at The Eden Project Biodomes and Eden BioDome Stations. As such, research went into refining this biofuel into a new sustainable fuel for spacecraft and vehicles alike.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Fuels such as sustainable biofuel have the advantage that few or no modifications are necessary on the spacecraft itself, provided that the fuel characteristics meet specifications for lubricity and density as well as adequately swelling elastomer seals in current aircraft fuel systems. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]MTX BF 1 is the first of sustainable fuel products in the MaraTibx line. MTX BF 1 enhanced biofuel meets and exceeds current liquid biofuels in lubrication and density. With the increase of availability of alternative fuels, the economic strain has lessened, allowing this fuel to become more widely available. It yields lower emissions of particles, greenhouse effects, and to a moderate degree, its ions emissions cools faster to burn clean.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]However, this is a fuel product and it is highly flammable to blasters and energy shots. Lightsaber strikes may also combust it, allowing for flames to produce if sparks make contact. Requires mandatory flammable decals and should be transported in secure MTX fuel containers. [/SIZE]
