Introduction
In general, diesel engines for propulsion of ships burn marine residual fuels. Marine residual fuels contain
the residue remaining after lighter fractions have been extracted from the crude oil during various
processes in the oil refinery. They are a blend of this heavy fraction to which other refinery stream
products are added to obtain the desired viscosity grade. Marine residual fuel oils contain elements
inherent to the product itself but they also contain some contaminants, which either are due to an
external contamination or enter into the fuel at the refinery during production, such as catalyst fines
which are small fragments of a catalyst, used in the catalytic cracking stage in order to cut long molecule
chains into smaller molecule chains. The catalyst fines are extremely hard and abrasive, and, if not
removed from marine residual fuel, can damage diesel engines with severe economic and, in extreme
cases, safety consequences. The normal way of removing catalyst fines and other contaminants from
marine residual fuel is by centrifugal separation.
It is important that all fuels are centrifuged efficiently to minimize the level of contaminants, including
catalyst fines.
In bunkered oil the maximum content of catalyst fines, expressed as the total content of Aluminium and
Silicon, is 60 mg/kg according to ISO 8217. Engine builders expect the level of catalyst fines to be reduced
to below 10 mg/kg, only reaching to 15 mg/kg for short amounts of time in the fuel entering the engine.
As the level of catalyst fines in the bunkered fuel is lowered, the engine builders expect a related reduction
in the amount of catalyst fines in the fuel entering the engine.
For many years there has been a demand from engine builders, ship builders, ship owners and
classification societies for reliable performance criteria for the centrifuges’ ability to remove abrasive
particles from marine residual fuels. The purpose of this document is to meet this demand by specifying
a repeatable method to determine separation performance with specific test particles in specific test oil.
