(CFPP : Cloud filter plugging point)

(CP : Cloud point)

(PP : Pour point)

The exact reduction of pour point and cloud filter plugging point and injection rate depends on the type and the quality of the fuel and could be performed by trials.

In a proportion of 1 liter in 2.500 liters diesel:

Decreases the pour point from:                                   -9  ^oC to  – 27 ^oC approximately.

Decreases the cloud filter plugging point from:            – 5  C to  – 10 ^oC approximately.

In a proportion of 1 liter in 1000 liters diesel:

Decreases the pour point from:                                   -9  ^oC to  – 30  ^oC approximately.

Decreases the cloud filter plugging point from:            – 5  C to  – 14 ^oC approximately.

In a proportion of 2 liters in 1000 liters diesel:

Decreases the pour point from:                                   -9  ^oC to   – 34  ^oC approximately.

Decreases the cloud filter plugging point from:            – 5  ^oC to  – 22  ^oC approximately

By increasing the dosage, the pour point and the filter plugging point are decreased.
