How does DurAlt® FC work in both gasoline and diesel engines?
Both gasoline and diesel fuels are mixtures of hundreds of different hydrocarbons which differ in their chemical structure and composition. During the combustion process encountered in gasoline and diesel engines, these various hydrocarbon molecules mix with oxygen supplied by the air and compete for the combustion reactions in which carbon is converted to carbon dioxide and hydrogen is converted to water. Due to the complexity of combustion reactions, some of the hydrocarbons are not completely consumed, thus contributing to incomplete combustion and formation of pollutants such as carbon monoxide and unburned hydrocarbons. The oxides of nitrogen (NOx), another pollutant from motor vehicle emissions, are formed by the combination of oxygen and nitrogen which are present during the high temperature combustion process. DurAlt® FC’s unique polar formulation improves the dispersion between fuel molecules and enhances their mixing with the air, thereby improving the overall combustion effi
