Developing techniques to evaluate fuel stability and combustibility is essential to ensure the quality of marine fuel supplier oil. Experimental research was performed to determine the combustion performance of marine fuel supplier using the thermogravimetry-differential thermal Analysis (TG-DTA) and the fuel droplet combustion method and the fuel ignition Analyzer (FIA-100). The results made it possible to distinguish between normal fuel and fuels which caused combustion problems. Compatibility of fuel oils follows solubility theory. The solubility of asphaltene can be predicted by the Scatchard-Hildebrand equation. This paper describes how to apply the solubility theory to evaluate fuel stability of marine fuel oil. 1. Introduction メDegradationモ of marine fuel oil has been discussed for a long time, and discussions on the introduction of the international standard on the quality of marine fuel oil are still continued. During that time, the studies have been made on the relationship between the sludge problems or combustion problems and the property of marine fuel oil in the oil industry. In this paper, the stability (heat, storage, blend) and the combustibility, which are the quality items not clarified in the general properties, are high-lighted as the problem on the quality of marine fuel oil, and the outline of the laboratory evaluation device to evaluate these items, and its basic concept are mainly reported. 2. Quality index desired for marine fuel oil The important quality as the petroleum fuel, not limited to marine fuel supplier oil, must satisfy the items specified in Fig. 1 as the quality in the use in addition to general properties including the viscosity and sulfur content. As for the fluidity, the viscosity at 50。C or at 100。C is an important quality item in C oil etc. which is predicated on the storage or use in the heated condition. However, for A oil which is not heated during the storage, the index value such as the low temperature fluidity including the fluidity point and the low temperature plugging point is also important.
The major factors contributing to the increase in microbial problems in the marine industry are changes in the fuel supply.
1. Changes in base oils, refining and blending; the
size, saturation and configuration of hydrocarbon molecules influences their
biodegradability.
2. Changes in the type and range of fuel additives; these frequently contain
nitrogen and phosphorus, vital elements for growth.
3. Changes in product handling and distribution; faster throughput permits less
time for particulate and water to settle and, at the refinery, less time for the
product to cool. This has exacerbated the problem by making the fuel more
nutritious to contaminating microbes.
Fuel oils have so far only experienced heavy infection in gas or diesel oils of
the distillates. The higher incidence of contamination in distillates is no
doubt due to the predominant molecular types. Black distillates are all the more
vulnerable due to the abundance of trace elements emanating from quantities of
residual fuel and the cutterstock used during blendi
Marine Fuel Oil Supplier's Responsibility: The recent high incidence of contaminated gas oil cargoes which have in turn been supplied to ships, does little to improve the confidence of operators in the marine industry. One would have thought that this would have sent shock waves through out the industry, but still one encounters ships experiencing microbial operational problems directly related to contaminated supplier
