Elsbett is a company that developed an engine with dual combustion capability (multi-fuel engine). This engine is powered by diesel and vegetable oil; with considerable savings, it reaches up to 42 km with one liter.
The person responsible for this invention was Ludwig Elsbett. The company was a forerunner in the development of engines with direct injection in passenger cars, a fact that happened in the 1980s.
The Elsbett engine is capable of adapting the fuel to the equipment, thus allowing the use of any type of oil (mineral, animal or vegetable), as long as it is clean.
A point that should be highlighted is the fact that this engine promotes a reduction in consumption, in addition to using renewable energy sources that do not undergo chemical processes. It is good to remember that vegetable oil (does not undergo chemical processes - oil in nature) is not the same as biodiesel (oil of vegetable origin that undergoes chemical processes).
