Application

HiTEC® 4103 is a cost effective cetane improver additive used to raise the cetane number of both petrodiesel and biodiesel fuels. It lowers exhaust emissions, especially NOx, from diesel engines. HiTEC® 4103 allows a refinery to increase it's profitability by upgrading, for example, FCC light cycle oils from cutter stock to diesel fuel valves.
