Fuel Combustion Analysis
Viscosity Analysis Supports Improved Fuel Efficiency and a Reduction in Emissions
Optimizing Fuel Combustion Through Better Fuel Control
Fuel combustion efficiency and emissions depend on consistent fuel quality and preparation. Key parameters such as viscosity, elemental composition, and fuel consistency directly affect atomization, burn stability, emissions, and equipment performance.
Heavy fuel oil and marine fuels present significant challenges due to natural variability, but the same need for control applies to biofuels, refinery streams, and alternative fuels. Reliable measurement and control are essential to maintain efficient combustion and regulatory compliance.
PAC and Cambridge Viscosity by PAC deliver integrated combustion analysis and control solutions, combining real-time viscosity measurement, combustion-based elemental analysis, and reliable combustion support systems. Together, these solutions help improve burn efficiency, reduce emissions, and ensure consistent performance across fuel types.
Key benefits include:
• Improved combustion efficiency and emissions control
• Better management of fuel variability
• Reduced additive and diluent usage
• Lower equipment wear and improved reliability
• Strong lab-to-process correlation with continuous measurement
