Research shows what Dipetane can do to improve
the fuel economy and lower emissions of your engines through
independent tests and customer testimonials.
Test after Test after Test
Dipetane has been tested in many ways and
for many purposes. Most have been to demonstrate the improved
fuel economy, lower emissions or to produce reports for their
own records to justify their use of Dipetane in a structured
manner.
Many different results are seen, from Diesel
Fuel Lubricity to lower emissions,
but the undisputed conclusion is that Dipetane is proven time
after time to significantly lower emissions while
it improves
fuel economy. Even a small
percentage improvement in fuel economy of around 4-5% can result
in significant fuel budget improvements over the year after
costs.
The addition of Dipetane to biodiesel naturally also ensures
reduced fuel consumption as found with normal diesel.
Research & Testing
April 2007 - Roadstone Dublin Ltd, part of the CRH group, have been using Dipetane Fuel Treatment for over twelve years at their Belgard Quarry. All of their mobile production equipment including Komatsu, Caterpillar and Volvo machines run on Dipetane treated fuel. [click here]
October 2006 - Norfolk frozen
food manufacture and distributor K.G. McKinney started
a three month trial using Dipetane Fuel Treatment. Using
just 5 litres of Dipetane in one vehicle over three months,
Ken reported savings of £150
on the cost of fuel due to improved fuel economy as well
as more power and a smoother running engine. Ken is now a
continued customer of K.D. Sales Ltd.
June
2006 – Hooker Pacific in Auckland performed
outside Dynamometer testing on Dipetane, showing 7.3% then
tested Dipetane (known as Cleanburn in New Zealand) on
four of their line-haul vehicles over a 12 month period
receiving an average of 8% [click

August
2005 - Coca Cola Bottlers Ireland were among
the first to use Dipetane when in 1989 using their Transport
Management System, they carried out an accurate pre-Dipetane
monitoring on MPG for three months. They then used Dipetane
in there fuel and continued monitoring for nine months.
In 1990 an overall average improvement in MPG of 17% was
the result. For 1990 letter

August 2002 - Gough & Hamer New Zealand. A Performance Analysis Report (PAR) was carried out by Gough Gough & Hamer Ltd on a truck owned by FiveStar Distribution Ltd, (Hookers). [click here]
August 2002 - The 1989 E-350 delivery van test was performed according to FTP, CARB and EPA standards by a CARB/EPA recognized testing facility in Ontario California. After driving 8,050 miles using Dipetane treated diesel, the results include significant emissions reductions (20% NOx, 44% unburned hydrocarbons, 25% particulates) and fuel economy improvement of 4%.

February 2002 – The US Foodservice fleet of 62 trucks using Dipetane increased an average of 14.4% in fuel economy over a 9 month review period. This was a fuel usage audit performed by Combustion Technologies (West) LLC using weekly fuel reports supplied by an independent record keeping company. Extensive testing recorded in the Manual.

November 2000 – Gas Technology Services, Australia tested two trucks for the Linfox Group of Companies. Using 1994 FLC 112 Mercedes Benz prime movers, running on diesel, which pull B-Double trailers. Found by using Dipetane smoke was reduced by up to 61.5% over an eight month period. [click here]
1999 – An independent US company ran 8, 1990 Peterbilt trucks for a total of 2 million miles over a 2 year period. The 4 units operating on Dipetane got 17.6% better fuel economy than the 4 control vehicles over the same time period. [click here]
1993 – the Irish Army totalled
the number of litres of fuel they used and the number of kilometres
driven. Then in 1994, they used Dipetane in all of their
fuel and calculated again. They report a 13.6% reduction
of fuel required. They have been using Dipetane ever
since and have logged well over 100 million miles of operation
and never any problems with the Dipetane
January 1993 – The University of Ulster, Ireland performed an extensive test on a system of boilers over a 1036 hour burning period. Energy release, fuel consumption and emissions were all measured. 10% less fuel was required to provide the constant heat factor. All emissions were reduced. These are but a few of the tests performed and more are in process. [click here]
As stated, different countries, equipment types and ages, different fuels and different levels of sophistication are noted in this mix. However the undisputed conclusion is that Dipetane has proven time after time to significantly reduce emissions while it improves fuel economy.
*Please note: All of Dipetane's claimed benefits are based on extensive field trials and a 15 year track record with Lloyds Insurances of London. Please also note Dipetane's Independent Laboratory Chassis Dynamometer, Carbon Balance and Brake Horse Power test results, i.e. what authorities recommend.
