Lloyd’s Register has signed agreement with SulNOx to provide technical support and consultancy services to oversee development and commercial deployment of eco-fuel emulsion technology.
The agreement will see LR provide a stringent technical assessment of SulNOxEco Fuels, verifying its operational suitability for users of hydrocarbon fuels and providing recommendations on the most effective application of the technology to secure optimum fuel and environmental savings.
To increase uptake of the technology, LR will also work with SulNOx to secure a 3rd party commercial vessel of a significant shipping line on which seatrials of the SulNOx’s technology will be undertaken.
The LR accredited results will aim to foster confidence in the proven safety, performance and anti-pollution benefits ofSulNOxEco™ Fuels, particularly in the shipping industry, one of SulNOx’s key target markets.
SulNOx supports all users of hydrocarbon fuels (fossil and synthetic) in reducing pollution from exhaust emissions, with the company’s immediate focus on the international shipping as well as the mining, rail and power generation sectors.
SulNOxEco Fuels technology permanently homogenises any standard fuel and water, which results in very important positive effects, on both exhaust emission pollutants and fuel economy.
This is achieved by providing significant increases in the efficiency and speed of the fuel burn, thereby drastically cutting the production of particulate matter (PM) by up to 90%, which then helps to achieve up to an 8% improvement in energy efficiency (reduced fuel usage).
Also by lowering the maximum flame temperatures in combustion engines, it substantially inhibits the creation of nitrogen oxides (NOx) by up to 60%.
The engagement with Lloyd’s Register comes weeks after SulNOx signed a two-year agreement with the University of Cambridge’s Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology department to better understand the processes behind SulNOxEco™ Fuels’ remarkable results.
Stephen Bamford, chairman, SulNOx Fuel Fusions Plc, commented:
Tim Wilson, from Lloyd’s Register, commented:
“Our principal role is to verify performance. The results SulNOx have already achieved through practical applications of its technology are extremely encouraging but, as with any new solution to market, technical and operational performance must be assured to help the market make the best, informed, decisions. This is particularly true of the shipping industry where ship owners and operators are cautious or in some cases skeptical of the performance of new and unfamiliar eco efficiency technologies.’
