Overview of the global emulsified fuel market
Technavio’s market research analysts have identified the regulations for emissions from marine vessels as one of the primary factors that will trigger the growth of the emulsified fuel market in the coming years. Owing to the increasing pollution levels, several norms have been drafted and the shipping industry is bound to adhere to the new sulfur limits in sulfur ECAs from January 1, 2015. These new regulations ensure the safety of ships, crew, and the marine environment. Ship owners are countering stiff challenge as these regulations have compelled them to shift to less sulfur-emitting fuels or use LNG as it has zero-sulfur emissions. Emulsified fuel can be used effectively in marine vessels as they have low emissions and the engines do not need many upgradations. Our market research analysts estimate that in terms of volume the emulsified fuel market will grow steadily at a CAGR close to 135% by 2022.
The development of emulsified fuel with high water content is one of the key trends in the emulsified fuel oil market. It has been noticed that emulsified fuel contains water in the range of 5%-20% by weight. One of the leading vendors has successfully produced emulsified fuel with 70% water and 30% oil. Several tests conducted in the lab suggest that 70% water content in the emulsified fuel can reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 44%. The emulsified fuel inhibits the emission of harmful gases.
