HVO Fuel & Selwood HVO Fuel & Selwood The environmental alternative to diesel www.selwood.co.uk SUSTAINABLE Selwood, leading the way to a sustainable future Reducing: Greenhouse Gases by % up to 90 Nitrogen Oxides by % up to 30 Ultra-fine particulate matter* % by up to 85 *when using GreenD+ fuel After extensive testing, HVO (Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil) fuel can now be used with Selwood pumps. The biofuel is made from renewable, sustainable, raw materials, that reduces greenhouse gas emissions, hydrocarbon emissions, carbon monoxide output and nitrogen oxide emissions. All Selwood pumps which have a stage 3B engine, including the eco range, can run on HVO fuel as an alternative to diesel. HVO fuel is completely interchangeable with diesel and has no impact on the performance of the pump. With excellent cold-weather performance, HVO fuel is perfect for use on Selwood pumps all year round. For every 64 litres of HVO fuel used 1 tree has to be planted 11 engines running on HVO fuel produce the same to offset the carbon, compared to the 9 trees that need to be emissions as 1 engine running on standard diesel fuel planted when using standard diesel fuel WHY HVO? Why use HVO? With a growing drive to tackle the root cause of climate change, all sectors are under huge pressure to reduce their environmental impact. With this in mind, we have been looking into how we can reduce our impact and where this reduction could come from. HVO is a modern way to Offsetting CO produce the fuel needed 2 emissions for everyday use with Selwood pumps but also for reducing CO2e emissions. 365 HVO fuel is perfect for Days reaching these goals as it helps to reduce our impact on the environment without impacting operational performance. All year round performance With up to 90% reduction in greenhouse emissions, HVO fuel is significantly better for the environment than regular diesel or biodiesel. HVO fuel can be used interchangeably with regular diesel, ensuring that existing engines and infrastructure can stay in place. The fuel also has a long shelf life as impurities are removed during the production process, eliminating the key factors for fuel degradation Biodegradable and increasing shelf life to around 10 years. and non-toxic *when using Crown Oil fuel Odourless IIIB Works in stage IIIB engines and above CONTACTS - PUMP BRANCH NETWORK ABERDEEN GLASGOW Site G, Kintore Business Park, West Yard, 2236 London Road, Kintore, Aberdeenshire, Carmyle, Glasgow, AB51 0YQ G32 8YF T: 01224 063440 T: 0141 778 5155 E: [email protected] E: [email protected] BEDFORD GREAT YARMOUTH Aberdeen Hammond Road, Elm Farm Ind.

  • Biorenewable Liquid Fuels
    Chapter 4 Biorenewable Liquid Fuels 4.1 Introduction to Biorenewable Liquid Fuels The aim of this chapter is to provide a global approach on liquid biofuels such as bioethanol, biodiesel, vegetable oils, bio-oils, and other biorenewable liquid fuels for the future of energy for transportation. It is possible that sugar cane, corn, wood, straw, and even household wastes may be economically converted to bio- ethanol. Bioethanol is derived from alcoholic fermentation of sucrose or simple sugars, which are produced from biomass by a hydrolysis process. Biodiesel is an environmentally friendly alternative liquid fuel that can be used in any diesel en- gine without modification. There has been renewed interest in the use of vegetable oils for making biodiesel due to its less polluting and renewable nature as against conventional petroleum diesel fuel (Demirbas, 2008). Due to its environmental merits, the share of biofuel such as bioethanol and biodiesel in the automotive fuel market will grow fast in the next decade. An im- portant reason for interest in renewable energy sources is the concern for the greenhouse effect. Biorenewable liquid fuels have gained a lot of attention due to their environmental and technological advantages. Development of ethanol as a motor fuel can work to fulfill this commitment. Greenhouse gas emission reduc- tions should be estimated on an annual basis. Where the levels from year to year vary significantly these should be specified on an annual basis. If ethanol from biomass is used to drive a light-duty vehicle, the net CO2 emission is less than 7% of that from the same car using reformulated gasoline (Bergeron, 1996).

  • State of the Art of Biofuels from Pure Plant Oil
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by DCU Online Research Access Service State of the art of biofuels from Pure Plant Oil D. Russo a, b, M. Dassisti a, V. Lawlor b and A. G. Olabi b a Department of Mechanical and Management Engineering, Politecnico di Bari, Bari, Italy. b Department of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, School of Mechanical Eng., Dublin City University, Dublin 9, Ireland. [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected] ABSTRACT The pollution caused by fuel combustion either for mechanical or electrical energy generation purposes is nowadays one of the most important environmental issues. It has been proven that combustion emissions, particularly those from cars and trucks, are linked with severe damages to the environment and human health. Along with the environmental problems, is necessary to consider that fossil resources are declining and their exploitation is getting more and more expensive. Bioenergy represent a sustainable solution for energy generation. Bioenergy is renewable energy made from plant‐derived organic matter, collectively termed "biomass". Biomass‐based energy sources are potentially carbon dioxide neutral and recycle the same carbon atoms. Life cycle assessments are reported to evaluate the net environmental impacts of biofuels. The term biofuel refers to liquid or gaseous fuels for the internal combustion engines that are predominantly produced from biomass. Biofuel policy might capitalize on the production of biofuels supporting rural economic development and sustainable agriculture. Amongst biofuels pure plant oil (PPO) has been investigated. This paper sets out to review the state of the art for PPO use as fuel in diesel engines, based on a wide literature review.

  • Performance of C.I Engine by Using Biodiesel-Mahua Oil
    American Journal of Engineering Research (AJER) 2013 American Journal of Engineering Research (AJER) e-ISSN : 2320-0847 p-ISSN : 2320-0936 Volume-02, Issue-10, pp-22-47 www.ajer.org Research Paper Open Access Performance of C.I Engine by Using Biodiesel-Mahua Oil. sudheer nandi Andhra Pradesh,INDIA-517502 Abstract: - India is looking at renewable alternative fuel sources to reduce its dependence on foreign imports of oils. As India imports 70% of the oil, the country has been hit hard by increasing cost and uncertainty. Recently the biomass resources are being used as alternative fuels and effective use of those fuels is gaining prominence as a substitute way to solve the problem of global warming and the energy crisis. Among all the alternative fuels existing mahua oil is also one. In this work, conventional laboratory equipment has been used for the transesterification of mahua oil. Various properties of esterified mahua oil have been tested for comparison with diesel fuel; further the investigations are carried out on a laboratory based diesel engine to study its performance. An attempt has been made in the present work to find out the suitability of transesterified mahua oil as a fuel in C.I. engine. Experimental work was carried out on 7B.H.P single cylinder four stroke and vertical, water cooled Kirloskar diesel engine at rated speed of 1500rpm different blends of transesterified mahua oil with diesel were tested at 200bar injection pressure. From the performance characteristics of transesterified mahua oil diesel blends the efficiencies obtained were found to be better with 75% transesterified mahua oil.

  • Vegetable Oil Dilution of Diesel Engine Lubricating Oil by Chance
    Vegetable oil dilution of diesel engine lubricating oil by Chance Rewolinski A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Chemical Engineering Montana State University © Copyright by Chance Rewolinski (1985) Abstract: The lubricating oil environment of a diesel engine operated on vegetable oil fuel was simulated on a laboratory scale to study effects of system parameters on lubricating oil degradation, primarily excessive viscosity increase. Initial parameters investigated for effect on viscosity increase were temperature, vegetable oil dilution level, catalyst level, and gas flow rate. Viscosity increased more rapidly for higher temperature and higher concentration of vegetable oil. Higher catalyst level accelerated the rate of viscosity increase, with copper showing a much higher catalytic activity than iron. Oxygen was required to obtain a viscosity increase, with higher oxygen flow rates slightly increasing rate of viscosity rise. Mechanisms of acid and free radical catalysis of polymerization yielding viscosity increase were investigated. Relationship of amount of free acids in the oil to increase in viscosity was investigated by measuring total base number of contaminated lubricating oil. Amount of free acid was varied by addition of phosphoric acid, octadecylamine, and a commercial lubricating oil total base number enhancer. None of these approaches had any significant effect on viscosity increase, indicating that drop in total base number and viscosity increase are not causally related. Free radical catalysis was investigated by periodic additions of a commercial free radical polymerization initiator to samples of contaminated lubricating oil. Viscosity response from this additive was similar in form and magnitude to that from oxygen, indicating that viscosity increase of contaminated lubricating oil is due to a free radical mechanism.

  • Biofuels (Alcohols and Biodiesel) Applications As Fuels for Internal Combustion Engines
    ARTICLE IN PRESS Progress in Energy and Combustion Science 33 (2007) 233–271 www.elsevier.com/locate/pecs Biofuels (alcohols and biodiesel) applications as fuels for internal combustion engines Avinash Kumar Agarwalà Department of Mechanical Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur, Kanpur-208 016, India Received 10 August 2005; accepted 9 August 2006 Available online 27 November 2006 Abstract The increasing industrialization and motorization of the world has led to a steep rise for the demand of petroleum-based fuels. Petroleum-based fuels are obtained from limited reserves. These finite reserves are highly concentrated in certain regions of the world. Therefore, those countries not having these resources are facing energy/foreign exchange crisis, mainly due to the import of crude petroleum. Hence, it is necessary to look for alternative fuels which can be produced from resources available locally within the country such as alcohol, biodiesel, vegetable oils etc. This paper reviews the production, characterization and current statuses of vegetable oil and biodiesel as well as the experimental research work carried out in various countries. This paper touches upon well-to-wheel greenhouse gas emissions, well-to-wheel efficiencies, fuel versatility, infrastructure, availability, economics, engine performance and emissions, effect on wear, lubricating oil etc. Ethanol is also an attractive alternative fuel because it is a renewable bio-based resource and it is oxygenated, thereby providing the potential to reduce particulate emissions in compression-ignition engines. In this review, the properties and specifications of ethanol blended with diesel and gasoline fuel are also discussed. Special emphasis is placed on the factors critical to the potential commercial use of these blends.
