DDF – Diesel Dual-Fuel technology

Revolutionizing diesel engine performance

1 Diesel Dual-Fuel (DDF) technology allows diesel engines to operate on a mix of diesel and gaseous fuels, reducing diesel consumption. This approach improves fuel efficiency and lowers environmental impact.

2 Fuel blending in DDF technology uses diesel as a pilot fuel to ignite the gaseous fuel, enabling a controlled and efficient combustion process. Advanced electronic control units (ECUs) precisely manage fuel ratios and injection timing.

3 DDF systems support various gaseous fuels such as CNG, LNG, LPG, and biomethane, offering flexibility and cost-efficiency. These alternatives enhance sustainability and extend application range.

4 DDF systems can replace 40% to 80% of diesel with gaseous fuels, depending on engine and conditions. This reduces diesel use while maintaining or improving performance.

Advantages

  • Significant Fuel Cost Reduction
  • DDF systems offer substantial diesel fuel savings by utilizing lower-cost gaseous fuels.
  • Environmental Sustainability
  • Reduce emissions of PM, NOx, and CO2, contributing to a smaller carbon footprint. Cleaner gaseous fuels support sustainability goals and regulatory compliance.
  • Extended Operational Range
  • Combined fuel capacity increases operational range, reducing refueling stops.
    Ideal for long-haul and remote operations.
  • Enhanced Engine Performance
  • Gaseous fuel operation can improve engine smoothness and efficiency, potentially exceeding diesel performance. Precise fuel control optimizes combustion.
  • Minor Engine Integration
  • Minimal engine modifications are required for DDF system integration, reducing downtime and costs. Modular components ease installation.
  • Operational Flexibility
  • Instant switching between diesel and gas fuels ensures uninterrupted operation
    in diverse conditions, adapting to fuel availability and prices.
  • Reduced Engine Wear
  • Cleaner gaseous fuels minimize engine wear and extend component lifespan,
    reducing oil contamination and carbon deposits.
