Viscon in Texas
Recently when trying to find a way to draw attention to the fact that our country’s energy and dependence of foreign oil problems could be dramatically bettered if our leaders in Washington would just wake up to how their ethanol programs would actually work if they looked into using hydrous ethanol instead of anhydrous ethanol, I thought about how we could actually win this war for energy independence if we also had a PIB additive program as well. This would strengthen the value of the dollar and end climate change problems as well. From the information I’m looking at, this country could go from dropping out of the race for superiority in the world’s economy to back into first place very quickly if the American consumer were just aware of what fuel products are available over what we’re being sold.
My renewed search for information on PIB lead to finding out it’s being used in Texas under the product name Viscon. It’s mandated by the state to be added to diesel fuel in regions that weren’t meeting national air quality standards. There was no mention of it helping with mileage but it’s been thoroughly tested by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality and certified as having the ability to reduce emissions from diesel engines. Since pollution is nothing but unburned fuel, it has to be assumed there must be more power being produced from the engine, which means more mileage.
This was the first time I had actual evidence that PIB really works, that it wasn’t just a hoax to try to get MTBE added to gasoline. So instead of then president Bush 41, Ken Lay of Enron, and Phil and Wendy Gramm, an ex-Senator from Texas and his wife who headed the Commodity Futures Trading Commission for Reagan, simply coming up with a scheme to sell us MTBE pretending they had an additive that really worked, they actually had one and then turned down in favor of a defective product that had already been turned away from the Clean Air Act debate once when the truth about how it worked to dissolve atmospheric pollution and dump it in the ocean came out.
I also found legislation authorizing payments to Viscon to consult with Texas diesel refiners on how to produce fuel with the same properties that Viscon gives it, just like I had suggested to Jerry Trippe of GTATech.com. And it turns out Viscon is owned by Jerry Trippe. So apparently he took my advice after all. Being without enough money to buy a refinery to practice perfecting how to produce his new fuels, he got Texas to pay him to use theirs, which was actually quite brilliant of him to think of doing. He got right under the oil industry’s nose and is getting paid to let them do his work for him. That’s the kind of thinking I hope Barack Obama doesn’t forget about after he takes his oath of office.
Texas gets cleaner air
So even though they’ve been using PIB in Texas for a few year where it’s likely they’ve already developed a way to refine diesel fuel with the same qualities that the Viscon additives give it, this doesn’t mean it’s going to be easy for Jerry Trippe to bring his story to Washington. The truth is patents on refining fuels only need to be slightly altered to be taken over by the oil industry for their own use. So he might be reluctant to disturb the lucrative market he’s created for his services by trying to promote what he’s done.
I also found evidence that just after his additive had been tested and proved to work by the state of Texas, it was then banned without explanation from being used. Then it was recertified and has been being used discreetly ever since where the few articles written about it, and the published government documents about the program, don’t mention the added mileage it gives. So apparently what’s happened is a deal has been negotiated in the oil industries backyard where Texas is allowed to use PIB to comply with EPA air quality standards as long as the rest of us don’t find out about the mileage benefits it gives.
