XcelPlus
Global Holdings develops and produces Federally Compliant Biomass Based
Renewable Fuels for the light, medium and heavy industries.

The
company’s strategic partners leverage years of experience to create
renewable biomass and renewable synthetic biomass fuel products that bring
dollars to your bottom line. Their team understands the issues of
Environmental Rules and Regulations, Fuel independence from foreign sources
and efforts to ensure industries to comply with Green House Gas reductions
and how they have the potential to be financially devastating.

In the near
future, Green House Gas Emissions, Carbon Emissions and Particulate Matter
Emissions will affect every major manufacturer in this country. Our
solution is to implement clean renewable biomass derived fuel as a
strategic reduction option that is often overlooked.

Why Biomass Fuels?

The
company’s programs introduce Biomass Based Fuels as the most comprehensive
and cost effect tool to comply with multiple directives from the Federal
and State Governments. Fuels from Biomasses such as waste vegetable oils,
animal fats, yard wastes, and industrial wastes are being developed to
offset the petroleum demand and provide an opportunity to promote a
healthier environment, create a new type of local sustainable economy and
meet the demands of business like no other

The world’s
largest retailer is leading the way and requiring the manufacturers to
provide proof of sustainable practices and carbon reductions in all facets
of the operation. They have already stated manufacturers that do not comply
will lose access to their market share. In the near future, the EU will
invoke sustainability and carbon profiles as a way of doing
business.

“Why is
this more expensive?” is often asked when in contrast, most manufacturing
facility leadership will not understand or capture the financial costs
associated with environmental compliance or more importantly the cost of
non-compliance. In the near future the real associated costs of compliance
will become a serious financial consideration that will make or break a
profit model. Many companies will fall prey to the perceived need to place
expensive reduction technologies at their facilities when a quality biomass
fuel will be able to keep them in compliance well into 2050.

At XcelPlus
Holdings our team understands this concept all too well and we practice
what we preach one contract at a time. Why Biomass Fuels? The answer is why
not-The decision to transition will demonstrate to others this is a serious
journey to profitability, sustainability, and environmental
stewardship.

Products

XPGH’s
renewable biomass products are designed to meet the energy needs of today
and tomorrow. The XcelPlus team is comprised of multiple professions from
both the traditional and renewable fuels industries with one goal in
mind.-To produce renewable fuels from federally mandated renewable biomass
resources for the industrial settings.

Product Lines

Synthetic Fuel Oils (SFO and BFO) These
product lines were developed for the use in burner systems for the asphalt
and concrete industry. The lines are priced competitively against Residual
Fuel Oil (RFO) and are tested to the same Fuel and Environmental profiles
mandated today. When compared to RFO, the field emission profiles achieve a
90 percent reduction of monitored emissions.

Biomass Release Agent (BMRA) This product was
developed for use in the asphalt and concrete industry as a biodegradable,
non-hazardous, release agent. In addition, when used in the asphalt
industry, the collected remnant could be properly disposed of in the burner
systems-subject to permit review and authority having jurisdiction. This
affords any company with portable or remote burners to completely remediate
the job-site and exercise environmental stewardship well beyond
expectations.

Btu
Enhancer (BTE) This line was developed with the power generation
facilities in mind. These products meet the stringent requirements of the
Energy Policy Act and will qualify (subject to state authorities) for the
generation of Renewable Energy Credits (REC) which then can be converted to
Carbon Credits.

In the
company’s near future, the renewable product lines for the Maritime and
Aviation Industries will come forward as solutions to the Green House Gas
emissions concerns we face today.

Sweet Success for Sustainable Biofuel
Research

ScienceDaily (Jan. 25, 2010) – Scientists have
found a way to increase fermentable sugar stores in plants which could lead
to plant biomass being easier to convert into eco-friendly sustainable
biofuels.

Their
research is highlighted in the latest issue of Business, the quarterly
highlights magazine of the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research
Council (BBSRC).

Energy is
released in a usable form from biomass when biodegradable matter such as
wood or straw is burnt or fermented. Fuel for use in cars is produced by
fermentation. To make the fermentation process more efficient and to
maximise energy conversion a better understanding of the release of sugars
from plant cell walls is crucial and researchers from the University of
Cambridge are doing just that.

Using the
plant Arabidopsis, Dr Paul Dupree and his team have found three enzymes
responsible for the production of all detectable levels of a type of sugar
called glucomannan. Their research also shows that the quantity of
glucomannan can be increased or decreased in the stem with no visible
detrimental effects on plant development or cell wall strength. However,
the researchers found that changes in glucomannan levels had a detrimental
effect on seed development.

Dr Dupree
explains: “We now know that it may be possible to increase glucomannan
specifically in harvestable plant organs, such as stems. This could be very
beneficial for the production of bioenergy crops where higher proportions
of enzyme-accessible fermentable sugars, such as those in glucomannan,
could lead to higher yields of fuel. Achieving higher fuel yields from
crops will increase the likelihood of sustainable and economic biofuels
displacing fossil fuels.”

The
increases in fermentable sugar achieved so far are encouraging, but further
work is needed to understand how to make substantial improvements in crop
species. If the biomass plant material is sourced sustainably, from
non-food crops and waste, then this research could help to contribute to
significantly increasing the supply of eco-friendly biofuels.

Commenting
on the research, BBSRC Chief Executive Professor Doug Kell, said:
“Sustainability issues, environmental factors and economic pressures all
mean there is an urgent need to find renewable energy sources. Plant-based
biomass from non-food crops and waste offers an effective alternative, but
to make the process more efficient, we need to examine ways of optimising
the plant matter we use to produce fuels. Research such as that being
conducted by the BBSRC Sustainable Bioenergy Centre is harnessing the power
of fundamental plant science to develop realistic alternatives to oil-based
transport fuels that do not threaten the food chain or the
environment.”

Dr Dupree
leads the Cell Wall Sugars Research Programme within the BBSRC Sustainable
Bioenergy Centre. This work is featured in the Winter issue of Business and
the findings were recently published in The Plant Journal.
