The benefits of using AFC-705 Fuel Catalyst are derived from its unique formulation of biocides, dispersants, surfactants, combustion enhancers and deposit surface modifiers, targeting problems of contaminated fuel systems in storage tanks and deposits in engines, turbines and burners.
Remove engine deposits AFC-705 combustion catalyst removes deposits by interacting with the surface of the deposit, lowering the energy of activation of its chemical bonds. This allows the release of carbon in the form of C02 at the lower temperatures.
Prevent deposit formation. The AFC-705 catalytic components inhibit the agglomeration process from forming heavy deposits. The agglomeration process is stopped at the primary and secondary particle formation phase, which results in smaller, lighter particles.
Reduce fuel consumption. Deposits in the combustion chamber absorb and protect the fuel from complete combustion. AFC-705 catalyses the combustion process. It destroys and removes deposits, which leads to the more efficient conversion of the fuel to C02. The surfactant component in AFC reduces the fuel droplet size, which enhances the combustion process, burning a higher percentage of the fuel before the exhaust valve opens. AFC treated fuel immediately reduces fuel consumption by 5 to 10 %.
Reduce Emissions. As deposits are removed, the emissions of CO, NOx, SOX, HC and particulates are drastically reduced.
Reduce carbon content of ash. The catalyst interferes with the agglomeration of combustion by-products by enhancing C02 production. With less carbon available to end up in the ash complex, the amounts of ash or soot will be significantly reduced.
Cooler Exhaust, Lower NOx. Fuel has a limited amount of energy that becomes available during combustion through the production of C02. The catalytic components in AFC-705 enhance the combustion process. When more of the fuels' energy is released during the combustion phase, less energy will be available to be released during the exhaust phase. The difference in energy release correlates to a temperature difference. Higher energy release in the combustion chamber means lower energy release during the exhaust phase, which results in cooler exhaust, lowering the production of NOx. Extend lube oil life. AFC-705 treated fuel produces smaller and less abrasive particles, which in connection with the removal of deposits, result in cleaner, longer lasting lubrication oil, and leads to reduced engine wear, less maintenance and down time, lowering operating cost.
Extend Equipment life. Engine life can be more than doubled as the result of complete deposit removal, cleaner oil and reduced friction. Injectors, valves, rings and other associated parts show little sign of wear, even after extended use.
Enhance fuel lubricity with the AFC-705's Lubricity Enhancers.
Inhibit corrosion with the AFC-705 Corrosion Inhibitor.
