Energy Savings and Emission Reduction of Traditional Pollutants, Particulate Matter, and Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon Using Solvent-Containing Water Emulsified Heavy Fuel Oil in Boilers

Heavy fuel oil is one of the most commonly used petroleum fuels in boilers, although it is associated with a high level of pollutants. Emulsification is a developing technique to enhance fuel effic...
