Why Fuel From Dangote Refinery Is Pure White in Colour – Charly Boy

Veteran entertainer, Charles Oputa aka Charly Boy has provided an explanation why the Premium Motor Spirit also known as fuel produced by Dangote’s refinery is pure white in colour.
He gave an explanation on his social media page on Thursday.

Charly Boy explained that the fuel from Dangote’s refinery was refined from ethanol, making it efficient for engines.

He disclosed that fuel from Ethanol has a good amount of oxygen which lessens the amount of carbonation in engines.
According to the Maverick entertainer, fuel refined from Ethanol reduces air pollution which comes as Carbon dioxide.
In a post titled: “Why Dangote fuel is white,” Charly Boy wrote: “Reason why the PMS is pure like water. Petrol has different colors, when it’s Red that means Octane was added.
 
“When it’s slightly Green then Octane is slightly very much. When is Yellow it means it has no lead in it. That means it’s unleaded. But when it’s clear as water as seen in the video then you should know that ethanol was used. What ethanol does is that it improves engine efficiency and power.
 
“Because ethanol has a good amount of oxygen it lessens the amount of carbonation in engines thereby reducing air pollution which comes as Carbon dioxide. So this is the best form of Petrol. Congratulations Dangote.”
Yesterday, the founder of Dangote Group, Aliko Dangote disclosed that the refinery was ready to commence production of fuel..
Displaying a sample of the fuel from the refinery, Dangote said President Bola Tinubu and the Federal Executive Council, FEC, would decide the price tag for petroleum products from the refinery.

Speaking in a recent interview with Hip TV hosted by reality star KimOprah, the singer revealed that he left Mavins because he felt like a product that was just there to make money.


He said, “I was at a season in my life where I needed to metamorphose, to explore my inner worth, to do introspection, understand myself, understand meaning more, and reconnect to my why.

“Because I was at a stage where I started to feel like a product that is just there [at Mavins Records] to make money.

“You lose sight of what matters when you chase after the next hit, after the next whatever it is that can get you into conversations. So a lot of artists are addicted to that circle.”
