Fuel System Technology
• The effect of magnetism on nanoparticles in fuel: (Images show deposits formed on fire tube wall)
• Documented effect on the behaviour of nanoparticle size constituents and impurities within the fuel
• Especially in respect of their ability to aggregate • Positive effect on heat transfer rates

Effect of aggregated nanoparticles
• The finite energy available in the fuel is most efficiently utilised in plant as radiant energy, rather than at the secondary convection and conduction stages.
• The aggregated nanoparticles within the fuel produce a more radiant, hotter flame and consequently more complete and efficient use of the energy in the available fuel. The hotter flame also results in a reduction in unburned fuel and more complete destruction of particulates.
After installation, the following effects are always observed
• Fuel burned to achieve the same process output reduced by 5% with an opportunity for reductions up to 9% following further optimisation
• Reynolds number of the fuel prior to combustion is altered
• A hotter, better defined, more blue radiant flame is observed
• Flue stack temperature is reduced• Unburned fuel in the flue gas is reduced• Oxygen, CO and particulates in flue gas reduced or
eliminated• Concentration of Thermal NOx reduced, despite
increased flame temperature, where combustion is below 1,800 ˚C
• Where fouling is a feature of the plant, this is reduced
Reduction of sites emissions
• A 5% reduction in fuel burned results in a 5% totalised pro rata reduction in CO2, CO, O2 and particulates.
• Combustion plant operating with flame temperatures up to 1800˚C achieve a totalised reduction in NOx of over 5%.
• Real benefits observed exceed the above due to the improved combustion, with CO eliminated and O2, particulates and unburned fuel dramatically reduced.
• The now high level of excess air acts as an effective means of reducing NOx concentration on standard burners and allows low NOx designs such as Bloom, Coen etc. to achieve concentration reductions in line with their design parameters despite increased efficiency.

Academic research
• Maxsys have commissioned two research programmes - one with the School of Chemical Engineering at Birmingham University and the other with the School of Mathematics at Aston University.
• Both programmes are actively supported and sponsored by the EPSRC (Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council).
Typical savings when applied to supplementary firing of Gas Turbine CHP Plant
• International Paper: GE Alstom Tornado single shaft gas turbine. Waste heat recovery producing superheated steam (44 barg 400C). Two Maxsys Systems saving 7%
• Arjo Wiggins: Gas Turbine CHP driving 10mW generator and feeding waste heat boiler producing steam at 45 tonnes/hr. One Maxsys System saving 9.4%

Chemical Industry Feedback
“We’ve already verified an 8% saving in the fuel consumption on the steam boiler alone…As for an overall figure for all 3 systems combined – I’m being very conservative and estimated a 5% total saving…. I can’t praise the success of the project highly enough…”
Ian Martin, Environmental Manager, Cray Valley Stallingborough, UK.

Food Industry Feedback
“We are very happy with the entire project, from the swift andprofessional installation through to the overall saving of over
6% on our boiler gas usage.”
Lance Herdman, Factory Electrical Engineer, Findus UK.

Goonvean Ltd
“The technology performed even better than promised. Such a marked reduction in fuel consumption is a fantastic result… An added bonus is that the Fuel Systems led to lower CO2 emissions
and a reduced carbon footprint for the company.”
Alex Newns, Process Manager, Goonvean St. Austell, Cornwall.
“The independent analysis carried out by ABB on this fuel system project with Maxsys was first class and very detailed leaving
nothing to chance… As a consequence of the excellent performance of the Fuel Systems on our Maxecon twin shell
boiler, the company has agreed to install two additional Systemsto the Through Air Driers…”
Steven Sherlock, Chief Engineer, Union Papertech Ltd, Simpson Clough Mill, Heywood.

“We are enjoying savings of over 5% on our gas fuel bills as adirect result of the installation of the Fuel Systems on our main
Tunnel Kiln at Parkandillick Calciner site”.Phil Wadsworth, Molochite Business Unit General Manager,
Imerys Minerals, Cornwall, UK.
Dairy Industry Feedback
“Maxsys guaranteed First Milk Cheese Company’s Haverfordwest Creamery would save a minimum of 5% on our fuel spend, with the actual result of 7.5% we are naturally delighted and it fully justifies the decision we made to ask Maxsys to work with us…”
