Fuel Borne Technology
To ensure the highest degree of product quality, EnviroFuels manufactures its patented products at ISO 9001-certified facilities. U.S. Patents: 5084263, 5310419, 5540788; Patents Pending.
EnviroFuels DFC (Diesel
Fuel Catalyzer)
EnviroFuels DFC is an application-engineered,
fuel borne technology that utilizes proprietary technology
to produce EPA verified results. When EnviroFuels DFC
is introduced into fuel, it improves the combustion process
and reduces friction, increasing fuel economy while reducing
emissions and engine wear. Unlike additives such as cetane
enhancers, alcohols, or metal-based catalysts that seek
to alter the fuel, EnviroFuels DFC fuel-borne technology
uses the fuel as a carrier into the combustion chamber.
This patented technology utilizes two processes to positively
impact the engine; a catalytic reaction and a surface
conversion. The catalytic reaction optimizes the heat
release rate, which leads to increased power, reduced
emissions, and increased fuel efficiency. The surface
conversion forms inorganic polymer complexes that converts
the surfaces of ferrous and non-ferrous metals. These
complexes smooth and passivate the metal surface, improve
reflectivity (emissivity), and reduce oxygen reactivity,
resulting in a reduction of friction and a more complete
combustion reaction.
