Technol Combustion Catalyst is a

premium Residual Fuel improver that

increases fuel combustibility, enabling a

higher BTU output. Smoke and soot

emissions are reduced along with erosive

slag deposits. Resulting in increased fuel

and boiler efficiency, and extending

component service life, decreasing

maintenance intervals, costs, and

downtime.

Combustion Improvement - extends

the carbon burnout reaction to lower flue

gas temperatures and speeds up the rate

of reaction reducing the carbon present

in the flyash, which actively reduces

exhaust plume opacity, particulate

matter, and carbon in the flue gas.Electrostatic Precipitator (ESP) operation

is also improved.

Slag - trace metals of Vanadium,

Sodium, and Sulfur that are oxidized and

melted during the combustion process

along with unburned carbon, deposit

themselves on boiler tubes and surfaces.

This leads to efficiency loss due to poor

heat transfer and tube corrosion, majorsources of maintenance, costs, and

downtime.

Technol Combustion Catalyst raises the

melting point of these metals above

combustion temperatures, causing them

to remain a solid, therefore not being

deposited on boiler tubes and inner boiler

surfaces.

Corrosion - Vanadium and Sulfur, the

main corrosive trace metals inherent with

heavy fuels, does not catalyze into acidic/

erosive slag deposits that foul backend

equipment.

Technol Combustion Catalyst provides

unique, customized, multifunctional

solutions to:

Improve Combustion

Allow emission reduction

Provide operational flexibility

Improve profitability

Reduce maintenance and downtime

Usage directions:

Apply 1 gallon for every 5,000 gallons of fuel

before refueling to ensure faster

mixing and distribution.

Harmful if swallowed.

Combustion Improvement - provides for a

more complete fuel burn which increases

BTU output while using the same amount of

fuel. Results are a reduction the amount of

Carbon-In-Ash (CIA), Particulate Matter

(PM), and carbon in the flue gas. Leading to

reduced exhaust plume opacity, improved

Electrostatic Precipitator (ESP) operation,and less backend deposits.

Corrosive Slag - During the combustion

process Vanadium normally forms Vanadium

Pentoxide (V2O5) which leads to the

formation of liquid corrosive slag and

catalyzes the oxidation of Sulfur Dioxide

(SO2) into Sulfur Trioxide (SO3). When SO3

mixes with moisture from the atmosphere or

from leaking boiler tubes it forms corrosive

sulfuric acid. The use of TechnolCombustion Catalyst converts Vanadium into

high melting point oxides of Vanadium

trioxide (V2O3) and Vanadium tetroxide

(V2O4). The presence of these lower oxides

do not catalyze the oxidation of SO2 into

SO3, so less corrosives are produced.

Reducing excess air in the system will allow

you to further drive oxidation of Vanadium to

its lower oxidative state (V2O3 and V2O4)

without sacrificing combustion or efficiency.

Sulfur forms SO2 during combustion. SO2

can be oxidized into SO3 in the presents of

V2O5 catalysts, which Technol Combustion

Catalyst also reduces. SO3 reacts with water

to form Sulfuric Acid (H3SO4)which is very

corrosive to metal surfaces.

The active ingredient Manganese (Mn) will

convert the Iron Oxide Fe(III)2O3 to

Fe(II)3O4 which will not catalyze SO2 into SO3.

Reduced SO3 results in a lower acid dew

point. This prevents the formation of

corrosive H2SO4 on air heaters, ESP and

colder metal parts. The presence of freeacid also results in sticky deposits which

prevent efficient operation of back end

equipment.

Technol Combustion Catalyst:

Increases fuel and boiler efficiency

Cleans boiler heat transfer surfaces

Reduced emissions & soot blowing

Reduced atomizing steam

Reduced cold-end deposits, corrosion.
