Fuel Homogenization
The majority of oceangoing vessels are expected to use very low sulfur residual fuel oil for main propulsion in the foreseeable future. Recent studies have also indicated that very low sulfur marine residual fuel oils (VLSFO-RM) are more prone to instability when compared to conventional residual fuels. A minimum of 0.5% to 0.8% in fuel savings can be realized with the installation of a single fuel homogenizer.
Fuel Management Programs: Fuel Homogenization
Drew Marine offers the most reliable homogenizer available in the marine market today. Improving fuel quality and proactively preventing sludge leads to more efficient combustion, less maintenance, and lower overall costs.
Decrease Your Fleet’s Operational Costs
Behind every Drew Marine program is a suite of on-demand technical services, industry experts, and years of extensive logistical knowledge that aid you in ensuring every program and application is being implemented correctly and successfully. As a leader in the maritime industry, Drew Marine is committed to meeting your marine fuel needs and identifying opportunities for your business to reduce maintenance and lower overall operating costs.
About Our FUEL MILL Homogenizer
Installed upstream of the centrifuge(s), the FUEL MILL homogenizer physically blends unstable fuel and better prepares the fuel for enhanced solid and liquid separation. Harmful solid contaminants, such as abrasive catalyst fines and sediment, are more readily removed from the fuel. As a direct result, additional clean fuel is recovered from what would have been dirty fuel lost as sludge. Centrifuge maintenance reductions and decreased sludge disposal costs are also easily attainable as energy efficiency measures.
