"rb bertomeu” beco F1/ASF Concentrated

Since 2018 concentrated additive

Complete treatment of Fuel Oil and Crude Oil with a high content of Vanadium and MCR-Micro Conradson Residues, for big Diesel engines.

Vanadium and Sodium corrosion inhibitor with Molecular Magnesium. Dispersant of the MCR-Micro Conradson Residues. It optimizes the combustion, reduces sludge by 55%, reduces the fuel consumption and saves maintenance costs.

EFFECTS
Dispersant of carbons and asphaltenes which reduces sludge by 55% and the trigger rate at the water treatment plants. It keeps the filters clean. Desemulsifier, it decants the water and removes algae and fungi. Stabilizer that slows the fuel degradation. Detergent, it keeps clean injectors, improves combustion and reduces the emission of unburned particles by 80%. Soluble Magnesium which inhibits corrosion. Neutralizes the incrustations and corrosion caused by Vanadium and Sodium in valves and turbos.
The sum of all the effects provides a 3% fuel saving and, as a result, the CO₂, NO_x and SO_x emissions are reduced at the same rate of 3% (mainly Carbon dioxide, CO₂ and Nitrogen oxides NO_x).

COMPOSITION

a) > 70% of: Soluble Magnesium carboxylate / Magnesium Organic salts of Fatty acids (molecules-trade secret) soluble in hydrocarbons. [see point a-1]
b) >20% Dispersants, surfactants, stabilizers, detergents, corrosion inhibitors, demulsifiers, biocides. [see points b-1 to b-7]
c) <10% Organic solvents, not hazardous for the environment. [see point c-1]

d) Density: 0.900 Kg/L

a-1) Soluble Magnesium carboxylate / Magnesium Organic salts of Fatty acids (molecules-trade secret) soluble in hydrocarbons.
Surface area of 1 gram of Magnesium molecules: ~ 1,800 m2/g
b-1) Dispersants, in order to evenly disperse the existing particles of asphaltene, coal and other solids that the fuel might contain, minimizing the formation of sludge.
b-2) Surfactants, that decrease the surface tension of the fuel and improve spraying.
b-3) Stabilizers, that delay the fuel’s aging and normal degradation and prevent sediment increase because of the increased size of small particles in suspension.
b-4) Detergents, that reduce the formation of carbonaceous deposits and flow reduction in nozzles and maintain an excellent spraying.
b-5) Corrosion inhibitors that protect metal parts of fuel circuits.
b-6) Desemulsifiers, which accelerate the speed of decanting of water to the storage tank bottom so that it can be easily removed.
b-7) Biocides that prevent the storage tanks contamination due to algae and fungi.
c-1) Organic solvents.
