Lub-rref brings 'nanotech' lube
BNO Lubricants marketer Lub-rref (Bangladesh) yesterday introduced transformer oils of Swedish company Nynas and “nanotechnology” based Finnish engine oils for the power, automobile and manufacturing industries.
Electricity generation capacity in the country has reached 20,000 megawatts, creating huge demand for energy related oils and products, Kazi M Aminul Islam, executive chairman of Bangladesh Investment Development Authority, told the launching ceremony.
“Bangladesh has registered steady growth in the last few years...we need billions of dollars of investment in infrastructure,” he said.
Islam also stressed the need for ensuring that the investments have minimum environmental impact.
The launching came through a seminar titled “Environment Friendly and Cost Effective Technology in Lubricants and Power Sector of Bangladesh” at Pan Pacific Sonargaon Dhaka. Mohammed Yousuf, managing director of Luff-reff (Bangladesh), said the “nanotechnology” aimed for five percent less fuel consumption, more power through improved engine performance, enhancing lifespan and reducing emissions, friction and wear.
It also forms a self-repairing protective layer on interacting surfaces, he said, adding that the Nynas oils had good flowing feature under low temperature, good heat distribution, low maintenance cost and were 100 percent recyclable after 50-60 years' use.
