THE TREATMENT OF MARINE HEAVY FUELS FOR GAS TURBINE COMBUSTION

The resurgence of interest in the heavy duty gas turbine for marine use is due in a large part to its ability to burn residual and crude fuels. Generalities involving fuel treatment requirements have been bandied about for years and often the wrong information is used by unknowledgeable individuals when making quotations or bid evaluations. The purpose of this paper is to present firm information on the treatment of marine fuels for heavy duty gas turbines.
