The options of power plants fuel should be considered based on energy resources, policy factors, fuel prices and power plants applications in the user's local. Gas is environmental and heavy fuel oil is economic. The fuel of our power plants range from natural gas to liquid biofuels, not only gas but also fuel oil. The power plant can use not only single fuel but also dual fuel, not only high calorific value fuel but also low calorific value fuel, even perhydrous gas. The diversity of fuel, the flexibility of dual fuel, provide you with a wide choice.
The Synthetic fuels include Synthetic liquid fuels and Synthetic gaseous fuels. The Synthetic liquid fuels suitable for power plants include Methanol fuel, Coal-to-Liquids (CTL), Power-to-Liquids (PTL), Gas-to-Liquids (GTL), Biomass-to-Liquids (BTL), and Hydrogenated vegetable oil (HVO), etc..
1. Biomass-to-Liquids (BTL), also known as Biomass fuel oil, refers to the liquid fuel synthesized by thermochemical conversion and gasification of biomass into synthesis gas, and then catalytic conversion. The chemical properties of the final product may differ from conventional fuels such as gasoline or diesel, but it can also be used in diesel engines. International standards: EN 16709,EN 15940.
2. Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil (HVO), also known as Renewable diesel, refers to the refined product of vegetable oil, animal fat, and other oils, either alone or in combination with petroleum, through a hydroprocessing process to produce hydrocarbons from fatty acids. The production process is usually more expensive than biodiesel, but HVO is a directly usable fuel that can be used in direct distribution, refueling facilities, and existing diesel engines without the need for processing. HVO is commonly referred to as renewable diesel to distinguish it from biodiesel (FAME). International standards: ASTM D 975.
