FAQ

  • If Mileage Plus Lubricants is 32.5 % Urea solution can I make it at home with the urea obtained in my farms ?

    NO! Fertiliser grade urea is impure urea which contains high percentage of biuret, aldehydes and other inorganic substances that deactivate the catalyst in the SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) system. These impurities cause a permanent damage to the system and would lead to a high capital maintenance in few months.

    Another problem with using fertiliser grade urea is, government since it is subsidised is masked with neem oil or other additives so people do not use it for industrial use. Since neem oil and other additives deactivate catalyst it I not at all recommended to use fertiliser grade urea

    Lastly it is illegal to use subsidised urea for manufacturing other product than meant for agricultural use
