Kleenburn Kerosene is a premium-grade, low-sulphur kerosene fuel engineered to deliver exceptionally clean combustion, reduced emissions, and high thermal efficiency. Compared to conventional kerosene grades, Kleenburn Kerosene undergoes advanced refining and additive treatment to significantly reduce sulphur, aromatics, and carbon-forming compounds.
This results in a smokeless, low-odor, low-soot fuel ideally suited for household heating, commercial appliances, and modern oil-fired industrial equipment where cleanliness, safety, and performance are essential.
Refining & Production Process
Atmospheric fractional distillation (150°C–300°C kerosene cut)
Deep hydrotreating / hydrodesulphurization (HDS)
Polishing filtration to remove moisture and particulates
Additive enhancement to improve ignition quality, thermal stability, and burner protection
Key Characteristics
Low Sulphur Content
Reduced SO₂ emissions
Minimized corrosion in burners, tanks, and pipelines
Clean Burning & Low Soot
High smoke point for steady, non-flickering flame
Minimal carbon deposits and reduced maintenance
High Flash Point (Safety Advantage)
Typically 38°C–72°C
Safer handling and reduced fire risk
High Thermal Efficiency
Optimized volatility for complete combustion
Consistent heat output across varying load conditions
