CLEANING OF DIESEL FUEL AND IMPROVEMENT OF ITS LUBRICATING PROPERTIES

Pollution in diesel fuel affects the performance and significantly reduces the reliability of the fuel equipment and the engine as a whole. When operating diesels, about 50% of all failures occur in the fuel system, with more than half of these failures caused by diesel contamination. In addition, pollution, falling with the fuel into the engine cylinders, cause wear of parts of the cylinder-piston group of engine equipment.
The article reflects three main problems that agricultural producers face when using machines in the analysis of the quality of diesel fuel used in the agro-industrial complex. In addition, we are talking about a new centrifuge method based on the purification of fuel from mechanical impurities and water. The water dissolved by this method is removed by a «micro-explosion» occurring in the centrifuge body. As a result, mechanical impurities in the fuel and partially resins are removed by reactive centrifugation, and micro particles of water are turned into mist, obtained from the centrifuge body, according to a specially developed scheme. The main characteristics of diesel fuel are presented in the form of tables before cleaning and after cleaning.
