Fuel additives

Fuel additives play a crucial role in the refinery and energy industry by improving the quality and performance of fuels. This translates into increased combustion efficiency, reduced engine wear, and a decrease in polluting emissions.

What Are Fuel Additives

Fuel additives are chemical substances designed to enhance the properties and performance of fuels used in engines and industrial applications. These additives are blended with fuels in various concentrations according to specific needs.

Highlighted Properties and Advantages

Improved Lubricity: Fuel additives can enhance the lubricity of the fuel, reducing engine component wear and extending their lifespan.

Thermal Stability: They help maintain the thermal stability of the fuel, preventing the formation of deposits in injectors and combustion chambers.

Increased Cetane/Octane Rating: They increase the octane rating in gasoline and cetane in diesel, thereby improving the quality and performance of the fuel.

Emissions Reduction: By optimizing combustion, additives can reduce emissions of polluting gases and fine particles.

Corrosion Prevention: They protect fuel systems against corrosion, which is especially important in marine applications or long-term storage.

Common Uses

Automotive: Fuel additives are used in motor vehicles such as cars, trucks, and motorcycles to improve efficiency and reduce emissions.

Maritime Industry: In maritime vessels, additives help maintain fuel quality and reduce corrosion issues.

Power Generation: In power plants, generation facilities, and industrial boilers to improve efficiency and reduce pollution.

Aviation: They are used in the aviation industry to ensure optimal performance and aircraft safety.

Industrial Sector: In industrial machinery, heavy equipment, and stationary engines to ensure reliable operation and prolong engine life.
