Business Wire
Afton Chemical is pleased to announce its latest development in
diesel fuel detergent technology, Greenclean™ 3, now available in
North America. This powerful, innovative technology builds on the
successful and recognized first-generation Greenclean™ platform.
With its more robust detergent system, Greenclean™ 3 will continue
to enhance the operation of heavy-duty fleets and off-road
equipment that contain the latest engine technology and emission
control devices.
Greenclean™ 3 Detergent Technology benefits include protection
from both traditional deposits and internal injector deposits,
enhanced filterability, improved stability, reduction in emissions,
and improved fuel economy. This new platform also incorporates
other additive combinations to address performance needs such as
lubricity, cetane, and cold flow improvers to minimize the
complexity of handling multiple additives.
Roman Olini, Americas Commercial Vehicle Marketing Manager,
credited Afton’s extensive industry experience in developing this
latest generation of Greenclean™ Detergent Technology. “We
developed this platform building on Afton's long legacy of
technical expertise and real-world experience in the diesel fuel
segment. We are proud to launch an efficient new product line that
maintains the strengths of our current technology while continuing
to deliver optimal performance in all segments of the commercial
vehicle space,” he said.
Tim Brennan, Fuels Technical Services Manager, said, “This new
detergent system has been proven in the United States, under
real-world conditions validating very robust fuel economy
benefits.”
