Water-emulsion fuel is a fuel compound composed of a mixture of water and heavy
oil. When water-emulsion fuel burns, the water component of the fuel raises in
temperature suddenly, which then separates the oil surrounding the water drops
into minute particles and diffuses them. As a result, the surface area of combustible
air increases considerably, which leads to more efficient fuel combustion.
Although water-emulsion fuel formerly required an emulsifier, this equipment does
not require the emulsifier, allowing for costs to be reduced.
In addition, the equipment is compact in size and works with the existing burner.
Therefore, the equipment can be installed on ships that are currently in operation.

Features |
|

 |
The equipment has high combustibility, which leads to the reduction of fuel costs. |
 |
This is environmentally friendly equipment since
water emulsion fuel can burn almost completely, thus reducing CO2 and NOx emissions. |
 |
The equipment does not require an emulsifier, allowing for costs to be reduced. |
 | The equipment is compact in size and works with the existing burner. |
 | The equipment is available for a marine use only.(Not available for a land use boiler.) |

Product FAQ |
| Q: |
What does emulsion in water-emulsion mean? |
| A: |
Emulsion is a liquid which is a mixture of two or more liquids,
such as water and oil, which do not naturally mix together. A typical emulsion
you can find in your house is mayonnaise. While mayonnaise is a mixture of oil
and vinegar, our equipment mixes water instead of vinegar in heavy oil to make
a fuel. |
 |
Q: |
Has the water-emulsion fuel been ready mixed with water and oil? |
| A: |
Initially the water and oil are separate. They become emulsion fuel after they are passed through a catalyst and then a mixing pump. |
 |
Q: |
When emulsion fuel is heated up, doesn't the water evaporate? |
| A: |
Although water evaporates at 100 degrees C in atmospheric pressure,
water does not evaporate at 100 degrees C at the top of Mt. Fuji because of low
air pressure there. Conversely, water does not evaporate where the air pressure
is high even when the temperature reaches 100 degrees C. Since water emulsion
fuel is always under pressure, the water does not evaporate. |
