Single Solution : Emulsified H.F.O.

• HFO Emulsion is a stable blend of immiscible liquids like F.O. & Water.

• It is purified F.O. dispersed with micron sized water droplets.

• Emulsified HFO offers enhanced & complete combustion.

• It provides better economy, less smoke and lower pollutant levels.

• Used in Steam Boilers, IC Engines, Gas Turbines world-wide.

• Made from normal FO as supplied by companies like IOCL & Reliance.


Furnace Oil vs. Emulsified F.O.

Under Microscope 100x Magnification


How it Works

• A High Shear & Cavitation process disperses 2-5 micron sized water droplets in

HFO forming an Emulsion.

• Once injected into the Combustion Chamber, water in fuel flashes to steam.

• This rapid expansion explodes the fuel droplet, producing a Nano fuel mist.

• This process is commonly referred to as Secondary Atomization.

• This enhances fuel-air mixing, thereby causing complete combustion.

• Reduces carbon formation and soot accumulation.

• Water both reduces HC content in Fuel as well as reduces Peak Temperature.

• Free carbon strips hydrogen from steam, forming a highly combustible SynGas.


Cetane & Kilocalories

• Theoretically the water content in Fuel reduces the Cetane number slightly.

• However Cetane calculations are not even applicable for Residual Fuels.

• Theoretically the GCV of Emulsions is also lower due to the water content.

• Likewise Bomb Calorimeters cannot be used for measuring Fuel emulsions.

• However the NCV of the Emulsions can be measured in actual use.

• Reduction of Cetane no., & Calories is compensated by enhanced

combustion.


Emulsified Furnace Oil: Flame


Benefits: IC (HFO) Engines

• It can be used in most H.F.O., engines without any modifications.

• Emulsified Fuels gets complete combusted: Fuel Economy.

• Increased Combustion Pressure due to Steam from Secondary

Atomization.

• No Coke buildup on Injector Nozzles : Longer Service Interval.

• Low Carbon and Soot deposits on Pistons: Reduced Maintenance.

• Increased intervals for Turbo-Charger cleaning.

• Peak Temperature Reduction: Longer Engine Life.

• Very Clean Emissions.


Improved Specific Fuel Oil Consumption.

• Improved SFOC in medium load conditions.

• Water-in-fuel increases the amount of entrained air per mass of fuel.

• Lean Burn conditions, but without overheating due to lower peak temperatures.

• Secondary Atomization provides better mixing and complete combustion.

• Water evaporation and expansion contributes to Combustion Pressure.


Ecological Benefits

• Emulsified F.O. combustion uses almost 20% less Oxygen.

• Emulsified F.O. generates 10-30% less waste-heat.

• Emulsified F.O. Combustion released at least 30% less NOx .

• Particulate Matter(PM) reduction by 30-50%.

• Drastic reduction of CO, CO2 & even SOx(with special additives).

• No disposal of Sludge & BSW from tanks.


No Filtration & Centrifuging Losses

• Emulsified F.O. is filtered via 80 mesh filters.

• It is completely Homogenized.

• Contains no Free Water.

• Contains no Sludge.

• Minimal Centrifuging Losses.

• Reduced Maintenance.

Used Worldwide

• F.O.-Water Emulsion Fuels are widely used in Ships, Generators &

Turbines.

• Engine Specialist Wartsila allows usage of various Heavy Oil emulsions such as Venezuelan Orimulsion with their engines.

• A 150 MW Power Plant in Guatemala was commissioned in 2004 to run solely on Orimulsion.

• Recently successful trials of MSAR II Emulsified Fuel on Wartsila RTX-4 Engine were conducted by Shipping giant Maersk.

• World’s largest Diesel Engine Manufacturer, MAN advocates H.F.O Emulsions in their Marine Diesel Engines to decrease pollution.
