• If diesel color initially is >2.0, this is likely due to contamination
• If products begin with color 0.5 and changes to > color 2 after long storage period, this indicates the product is not stable

Clean diesel can:

• Prevent excessive injector wear, filter plugging, and corrosion of engine fuel system parts
• Increase the replacement cycle duration of the vehicle filter, reducing overall cost of maintenance

• Has higher energy content
• Provides greater fuel economy in a diesel engine, lowering operational costs

Benefits apply to diesel engines, diesel engine powered generator sets, boilers and heavy equipment, consideration of energy content

• Cetane number provides a measure of the ignition characteristics of diesel in compression ignition engines
• As Cetane number reduces, diesel engine performance progressively deteriorates

• Good cold starting and reduced smoke
• Lower combustion noise

·  Reduced exhaust emissions

• Naturally occurring compounds in crude oil
• Sulphur in diesel is removed by the de-sulphurisation plant in the refinery
• Use of lower Sulphur fuel is in-line with Indonesian government’s commitment to reduce emissions

• Can cause wear in diesel engines as a result of the corrosive nature
• Contributes to negative environmental and health concerns with Sulphur emissions
• Acts as a temporary catalyst poison, reducing system efficiency

Diesel fuel with low Sulphur content directly reduces sulfate particulate emissions
