More Combustion With JLess Fuel

SB

As the quality of marine fuel continues to deteriorateT^IJBwJ^J^aBt.^' the necessity of fuel treatment^»r^3£SJj and/or pre-treatment commensurately | escalates. ANY fuel oil .. available to the global maritime industry at this point in time can (perhaps MUST) be improvedT "

While there is no SINGLE-panacea^- ^ for marine bunkers of vaned origin and varied or widefy-disparats^fiB®^' elemental composition, it is beNevecniere , Jt" that any effective means to improve the ^yggafc^- combustion environment and thereby reduce*^^1 combustion-refajed maintenance costs ought to be given serious considerate*^

The XRG marine fuel treatment was NOXpgg&fcj formulated exclusively to combat vanadiatfi^^^P

OR merely to cope with high sulphur ' ^^f^Lt content, OR for the sole purpose of dealing with high-carbon residue and/or "sludge""^* * , (although it is rather effective in air'^^^^-c-^-^ of these areas).

The XRG catalyst is not just a solvent or sludge-remover. It is, rather, a combustion-efficiency improver. XRG is, quite simply, reduced vessel operating costs via ^ * more complete combustion. In petro-chemical terms

XRG improves hydrocarbon combustion in the vapor stage. In layman's terms, we are talking about a combustion environment wherein all or nearly all of a given fuel's inherent

BTU value is combusted and thus utilized. * '.-^ti^ifC >2*1*4 mm warn
