Question 1

How is Xmile applied?

Accepted Answer

Xmile is mixed with the fuel before combustion with enough time for the enzymes to work on the fuel; depending on customer’s needs, type of fuel, vessel crew and level of xmile adoption it can be mixed with the fuel at the storage tanks or settling tanks. Customer and xmile will define the best solution together.

Question 2

What is the return on investment (ROI)?
