REDUXCO
The REDUXCO Activator significantly improves the combustion efficiency of solid, liquid, and gaseous fuels across various boiler types used in heat generation facilities. Developed as part of a research and development project, REDUXCO incorporates catalytic additives for liquid fuels along with an innovative dosing method. Real-world tests have confirmed its positive impact on fuel combustion processes.
Fuel Compatibility and Compliance
The project findings validate that the additive does not negatively affect the physicochemical properties of fuels. For example, unleaded gasoline enhanced with the activator meets the PN-EN 228+A1:2017-06/Ap1 standard. Similarly, diesel fuel treated with the additive complies with the EN 590:2013+A1:2017 standard.
Applications of REDUXCO Across Fuel Types Coal
In coal combustion, REDUXCO accelerates the heterogeneous combustion process, leading to higher combustion efficiency and improved heat absorption within furnaces. This results in:
- Lower flue gas temperatures.
- Reduced oxygen requirements for combustion, thereby decreasing the alpha coefficient and thermal losses from exhaust gases.
- Fuel savings ranging between 3.5% and 6%, depending on the application.
- Complete CO combustion to CO2, reducing CO2 emissions by a similar margin (3.5%-6%).
Diesel Fuel
Tests demonstrated the following benefits:
- 6.6%-8.6% fuel savings compared to baseline consumption.
- Reduction in unburned hydrocarbons (THC) by 46%-56%.
- Decreased carbon monoxide (CO) emissions by 18.6%-21.5%.
- Reduction in particulate matter (PM) by 13.5%-17.5%.
- Nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions cut by 1.8%-6.7%.
- Lower CO2 emissions by 1%-19.3%.
Unleaded Gasoline
REDUXCO delivers similar improvements for gasoline-powered engines:
- Fuel savings of 4.8%-8.4%.
- THC emissions reduced by 21.2%-22.5%.
- CO emissions cut by 7.7%-12.7%.
- CO2 emissions decreased by 0.7%-3%.
- NOx emissions reduced by 1.8%-6.7%.
