Background
The increase of residual/heavy fuel price.
Extra cost for disposal of fuel sludge
Poor Combustion causes smoke, dirty exhaust system and high maintenance cost

Heavy Fuel
High Fuel Oil Price forces buyers to buy heavy fuel which has lower price but also lower quality.
Heavy fuel is a lower quality distilled fuel which carries considerable amount of impurities and produce fuel sludge
Fuel Sludge primarily consists of asphaltenesand creates problems such as high cost disposal and poor combustion

What Is Asphaltenes?
Asphaltenes primarily contain hydrocarbons (C57H32)
It can be as large as 120 microns and usually removed by centrifugal purifiers and filters
However, asphaltenes actually still have a potential to be used as fuel if the size is much smaller
The size reduction is done by homogenizer

Principle of Homogenizer
Homogenizer is a high speed mill with a rapid rotor rotates in the casing which serves as stator. The fuel forced trough a fine labyrinth between stator and rotor and cut asphaltenes into smaller size ( 3 – 5 micron ) which burn completely and do not overload the engine.

Construction of Homogenizer
Conical shaped motor-stator is concentrically mounted with a motor-driven rotor
Designed to accelerate the fuel as it passes through the unit

How Homogenizer Works
Fuel is exposed to hydrodynamic power: Shearing and frictional forces, acceleration power and high frequency ultrasonic waves
Reduce the asphaltenes size to 3 to 5 microns, allowing them to be blended with heavy fuel oil, reduce sludge formation

The Advantages of Homogenizer
Allow the usage of heavy fuel effectively
Reduce sludge formation ( up to 80% sludge reduction ) and waste disposal cost
Improve combustion
Reduce smoke and maintenance cost

Sludge Reduction
Asphaltenes content in bunker oil usually vary between 2-3%. In conventional way, asphaltenes is separated and throw away as waste
By using homogenizer, asphaltenes utilization is up to 80-85%. You can save more than 2% of total fuel oil used and your headache to remove the asphaltenes is solved.

Improving combustion
With very homogenous and clean fuel to the engine, combustion is stable and therefore extends equipments life time.

Reduce Nitric Monoxide (NOx) by
Emulsification
Reduction of NOx of 10% in shipping is legally required. For this reason, water is added to fuel by emulsifying .For every 1% water added , 1% NOx will be reduced.

Blending of Fuel-Oil
Oil Sludge and other oily residues can be completely recycled. With addition of small amount of MDO , the homogenizer will process the waste into valuable oil. Via a settling Tank, the mixture can be used as fuel for the engine itself. This means more savings on fuel and disposal cost disappear completely

Fuel-Water Emulsion Module
• Fuel-Water Emulsion module is used for mixing fuel oil with water into emulsion before fuel oil injected to diesel engine
• Water flashes due to high temperature and breaks fuel into smaller droplets
• Creates more surface area of fuel, which improves vaporization and fuel/oxygen mixing
• Cooler combustion temperatures result in a reduction of NOx emissions
