Since 1981, RENERGI is focusing on the development of products exclusively related to combustion optimization. In this respect, a fuel catalyst with unique characteristics has been released, after 40 years of research in our Principals’ R&D center in Bremen-Norway.
This Premium Fuel Treatment catalyst (MERGI PFT) is already in use by major shipping conglomerates worldwide, while has also been tested by various Greek shipping companies.
Characteristics and Merits:
- MERGI PFT is a 6th generation primary organic fuel combustion catalyst
- MERGI PFT is ideal for all grades of conventional fuels (VLSFO, HFO, MGO and DO with viscosities from 0,5cst up to 700cst)
- Dissolves asphaltenes while also prevents creation of same by cutting the long hydrocarbon chains and by reducing the polarity that causes them
- Improves fuel viscosity and ignition
- Supports the compatibility between fuels
- Use of appropriate PFT mixture is optimizing the burning process by reducing the CVI index value
- Significant reduction of soot particles on exhaust gases by at least 25% on all vessels used, while CO and NOx values improved as well (10-20% lower)
- Soot particles can be easily monitored using a soot pump supplied by RENERGI
- Due to the combustion optimization, a 2-3% of fuel savings anticipated
- Improved combustion results to cleaner combustion chamber, pistons, rings and valves, reducing the vessel’s maintenance costs
- MERGI PFT can be poured in storage tank before bunkering and/or can be injected in the settling tank supply line by a dosing system (as recommended), supplied by RENERGI
- Dosing system is coupled with the vessel’s Transfer pump. Therefore, the required volume of catalyst is being automatically adjusted, based on transfer pump capacity, avoiding the over or under dosage
- Strong Stock points: Poland / Norway / USA / Netherlands / Spain / China / UAE / Singapore
- MERGI PFT is supplied in cans of 25lt for easiest usage on board, while can be shipped via airfreight without limitations
