ADDITIVES FOR DIESEL FUEL
ZAVKOM-ENGINEERING together with the partners developed a modern technology for the synthesis of 2-ethylhexyl nitrate (2-EHN). For this technology, a special catalyst was developed and optimal technological conditions of the process were selected, which allowed to optimize economic costs.
