India has started production of 'reference fuel' in October 2023.
The reference fuel follows an ideal standard ranging from cetane number to flash point, viscosity, sulfur and water content, hydrogen purity and acid number.
This standard is guided by government regulations.
India has now become one of the top countries that produce reference fuel.
This fuel is used for testing automobiles.
This fuel has been developed indigenously by Indian Oil Corporation.
Its development will ensure reliable fuel supply at very low cost to vehicle manufacturers and testing agencies.
Till now only 3 agencies in the world produce reference fuel.
