Keywords : MGO fuel, marine engines, SOx emission


Abstract

Nowaday, aproximately 0.8% of mass of fuels used in global maritime transportation are heavy fuels with the sulphur less 0.5% and light fuels with the sulphur less 0.1%. Hence, the SOx emission at the sea regions or port where are not Sulphur Emission Control Areas (SECA) is quite high. It is necessary to reduce the sulphur content in fuels less 0.1% and use these fuels in global maritime transportation, especially the requirement of sulphur emission control is perform in the beginning of 2018. The paper presents the study of charactericstic and the methods of using marine gas oil MGO in marine engines. The results are the ground to orientate the design, fabrication and installation the dual fuel system HFO-MGO or DO-MGO used in marine engines in order to reduce the SOx emission and the environment pollution.
