The electric generating facility at an overseas location has 5 identical electric generating units. Each unit is 6400 HP 1959 NORBBERG marine-diesel engine. Each unit has an electrical generating capacity rating of 4 MW (megawatts) output.
The following is a preliminary report describing the running conditions of the 5 units before ENERGY+ Maritime is used, and the improvements seen to Unit N0. 1 after adding ENERGY+ to the high sulfur Bunker C fuel used throughout.
Before using ENERGY+, all units were badly spewing high amounts of polluting smoky stack exhaust emissions. Because of this, the plants were limited to 2.5 MW of output. If they tried to increase the electric generating output, then the exhaust smoke would be so bad that the officials would not allow it and they would be ordered to run at the reduced electric power output of 2.5 MW. Here the discharge exhaust emissions pollution reading is a Ringleman Number of 80.
ENERGY+ was added to the fuel in unit N0. 1 only. After only two days of running, the exhaust discharge cleared to where the Ringleman Number dropped to 35. This was a smoke reduction of 56 percent. Also, there was an 8 percent reduction in the amount of fuel required. Then, the electric output was increased to 3.5 MW while maintaining the clean exhausts at a Ringleman Number of 35. This output electric generating capacity of 3.5 MW, compared to the lower before ENERGY+ output of 2.5 MW, is an output gain of 40 percent.
