Afton's HiTEC 3000 Series mmt Octane Booster 
Octane Improver

As global energy and environmental challenges increase, many refineries face the costly and complex process of upgrading their fuels to meet specified octane levels. 

Afton developed the HiTEC® 3000 Series of mmt® containing products to provide refineries with an immediate and flexible solution without heavy investment. HiTEC 3000 enables the delivery of economic and on-specification gasoline – whatever the octane target, that’s why 150 refineries and blenders in 53 countries are happy to use our solutions.

 Key Benefits of HiTEC 3000 Series of mmt 

Improved Economics - Use of mmt in very small amounts (one drop per liter gasoline)  increases octane in an environmentally friendly and cost effective manner, allowing for optimum gasoline blending and production, increased refinery flexibility and reduced need for component storage

Reduced Energy Consumption - Allows refiners to lower unit operation severity, resulting in lower crude consumption, extension of  gasoline pool and improved refinery efficiency

Sustainable Environment - Reduces emissions of greenhouse gases at the refinery and allows cleaner burning fuel formulations

Optimal Performance - Provides wear protection for older vehicles and maintains modern vehicle emissions systems at optimum performance.

Globally Approved - Afton’s HiTEC 3000 is the only manganese gasoline additive fully tested, and approved by the US EPA under the US Clean Air Act*, in addition to fulfilling requirements of China's Ministry of Environmental Proection (MEP). Afton is the only registrant of mmt under the EU REACH legislation.
