Compliance and port air quality features with respect to ship fuel switching regulation: a field observation campaign, SEISO-Bohai [PDF]
Since 1 January 2017, ships berthed at the core ports of three designated “domestic emission control areas” (DECAs) in China should be using fuel with a sulfur content less than or equal to 0.5 %. In order to evaluate the impacts of fuel switching,

Reuse of low sulfur oil residues as a base for boiler and marine fuel
THE PURPOSE. A complex of various physico-chemical methods has been studied to explore the possibilities of reuse of oil residues (oil sludge) of low-sulfur high-paraffin oil deposits of the Mangyshlak peninsula (Kazakhstan) as a promising raw material for boiler and marine fuel with improved operational and environmental characteristics.METHODS ...

Adsorptive treatment using granulated macroporous Al2O3-SiO2 adsorbent is proposed as a preliminary stage for residue pretreatment in refineries. The study evaluates the adsorptive treatment of atmospheric and visbreaking residue at 485–510 °C and 1 h−1 feed rate, resulting in a total liquid product yield of about 73.0–75.0 wt%, coke on the sorbent of ...

Combustion of Single Droplet of Marine Residual Fuel Oils
An experimental study on combustion characteristics of a single oil droplet hanged on a quartz filament was performed to investigate the effect of fuel oil composition on combustion. Fuel oils used in the experiment were twenty-seven residual oils which had been supplied at the port all over the world for marine use and two residual oils which had been

Ecosystem uptake and transfer of Sellafield-derived radiocarbon (14C). Part 1. The Irish Sea [PDF]
Ecosystem uptake and transfer processes of Sellafield-derived radiocarbon (14C) within the Irish Sea were examined. Highly variable activities in sediment, seawater and biota indicate complex 14C dispersal and uptake dynamics.
