Light Diesel Oil (LDO) is a mixture of distillate fuel and residual oil. It is used in low and medium-speed diesel engines and industrial burners. It is a middle distillate fuel with a lower viscosity than heavy fuel oil, easing pumping, handling, and atomizing. LDO is used across different industries, whether for heating, power generation, or as a backup fuel in boilers and furnaces. Provides stable flame characteristics with moderate emissions. LDO meets the BIS (IS 1460:2017) standards and is offered in commercial and industrial markets in bulk and barrel packaging. Benefits 1. Easy to handle and pump due to low viscosity. 2. Cost-effective for industrial heating and power generation. 3. Compatible with a wide range of diesel engines and burners. 4. Produces cleaner combustion compared to heavy fuel oils. 5. Readily available and supported by national distribution networks.
