Controlled Specific Fuel Consumption Tests

3 Feb 2023

Determining the fuel consumption of a generator can be difficult. While the manufacturer will claim certain levels of fuel consumption, this will depend on usage because the numbers depend on how you use the generator. The amount of electrical power produced by the generator is in direct proportion to the amount of fuel it consumes. The more power is needed, the more fuel will be used.

Bula Vinaka,

After PFMBlue the visit to Fiji this week, we would like to thank the organisations who participated in the demonstrations of PFMBlue’s technology and its potential application to your business by assisting in its reliability.

As shown the developed technology will clean fuel to its molecular level to remove water content and destroy “bugs” that cause contamination, engine failure and higher maintenance costs, we look forwards to future involvement with those participated, the positive results from the use of the PFM equipment we look for forwards to hearing.

Fuel Quality, your engines reliability and how PFMBlue assists you.

Pistons, piston rings, bearing’s (brass, steel and cast aluminium) and all other sliding parts must withstand large friction forces and pressures in the combustion engine, the introduction of carbon increases wear within these engines.

With modern engine designs and with the development of smaller lighter engines delivering this power to the flywheel, engines are now very powerful for their size, Good oil quality is now more essential.

Improved fuel combustion in Deisel Engine, cleaner oil at oil changes.

A summary of previous reports are as follows.

Pre install Fuel consumption was just over 10 litres/ per 100 km when used carrying no loads, travelled same tar sealed roads, majority travelled of roads of good quality inclines and surfaces.

15th Jan 2022 install

Immediate results noted engine running very noticeably quieter, smoother and had more "power" when used on tar sealed inclines.

10th March 2022

Fuel consumption dropped to 8.5 litres / per 100 km.

The engine is still very noticeably quieter, consistent increased engine performance noted.

PFMBlue technology and Biodiesels.

25 Jun 2022

Renewable hydrocarbon biofuels are hydrocarbons produced by hydrotreating and also via gasification and a range of other biochemical, pyrolysis and thermochemical methods from biomass-derived sources. These are becoming a larger proportion of the diesel fuel used on the market as government environmental policies move and adapt.
