Greenburn® Diesel Fuel Technology

Think green, burn clean: That’s the promise of Greenburn® diesel fuel technology, formulated by Afton Chemical research to provide immediate, sustained, and economical emission reductions across the entire spectrum of diesel engines and fuels.

A fully formulated, completely soluble liquid package, Greenburn diesel fuel technology combines traditional performance additives to keep engines running smoothly and a patented combustion improver system to dramatically reduce emissions.  Those emission reductions—both in particulates and black smoke—are immediate and sustained:

In tests with both light-duty and heavy-duty vehicles, the average immediate decrease in particulates was 16%, while black smoke declined 22%. Continuous use of Greenburn diesel fuel technology gives sustained performance.

Tested in independent facilities around the world, Greenburn technology is designed for use in the full range of diesel vehicles from passenger cars to trucks. It effectively reduces all particulate sizes, even in today’s ultra-low-sulphur fuels and ultra-clean diesel engines.  Thanks to Afton Chemical research, Greenburn technology makes those reductions in emissions economical, too. In fact: 

One million litres of diesel fuel treated with Greenburn technology produces an immediate reduction in particulates of 100 kg—at the cost of just 0.1 cent per litre!

By immediately reducing diesel combustion particulates, Greenburn technology can also reduce the need to make major refinery changeovers—for potentially enormous savings in capital costs and conversion time.  And because motorists can literally see and feel the difference through reduced emissions and smoother operation, Greenburn technology actually encourages consumer acceptance and usage of more environmentally responsible fuels.
