1. Japanese oil companies have been voluntarily producing “Sulfur-free; 10ppm” products since 2005. (The world’s front-runner)
2. Nippon Oil has developed technologies for sulfur-free fuels production.
Diesel fuel: High activity HDS catalysts
Gasoline: ROK-Finer process(Selective CCG-HDS)
3. Our commercial units are now operating smoothly to produce sulfur-free fuels stably.
