YOGYAKARTA - The Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources stated that the government is preparing for the launch of low sulfur fuel that meets the Euro 4 standard. This step was taken to minimize the negative impact on the environment and health. However, there are still many who do not recognize sulfur's low fuel.
One type of fuel that is now being talked about a lot is low fuel sulfur. This type of fuel is the main choice for many countries and industries because of its ability to reduce exhaust emissions and the adverse impact on the environment.
In addition, low fuel sulfur can also increase vehicle engine efficiency and extend engine life. So what are low fuel sulfur and what are the benefits?
Low fuel sulfur is a type of fuel that contains very low sulfur content compared to ordinary fuel. The sulfur content in this fuel is usually measured in the form of ppm (parts per million).
Generally, low sulfur fuel contains less than 50 ppm in sulfur, even some types of fuel have sulfur content below 10 ppm. This is very different from conventional fuel which can contain up to hundreds of sulfur or thousands of ppm.
This lower sulfur content allows low sulfur fuel to produce cleaner emissions when the burning process occurs. This cleaner combustion process reduces the production of dangerous gases such as sulfur dioxide (SO2) which is known as one of the main causes of air pollution and acid rain.
Salah satu manfaat utama dari BBM rendah sulfur adalah kemampuannya dalam mengurangi emisi gas berbahaya, terutama sulfur dioxide (SO2).
This gas can cause various health problems, such as respiratory problems and lung disease, as well as damage the environment by causing acid rain. With lower sulfur content, the resulting emissions are cleaner and environmentally friendly.
Low sulfur fuel has more efficient burning properties, meaning this fuel can help engines work more optimally. Machines that use low sulfur fuel tend to experience little carbon deposition, so engine performance can remain stable and efficient.
This also helps in reducing machine maintenance costs because fewer components need to be replaced or repaired due to carbon deposits.
Sulfur contained in conventional fuels can cause corrosion and damage to the engine components over time. Using low fuel sulfur, the risk of damage from corrosion in the engine can be significantly reduced.
This means that vehicle engines and heavy equipment can have a longer life, and require less maintenance and replacement of spare parts.
Salah satu tujuan utama dari penggunaan BBM rendah sulfur adalah untuk mengurangi dampak negatif terhadap lingkungan. Emisi gas kelang yang lebih rendah dan lebih bersih membantu mengurangi tingkat pollusi udara serta dampak terhadap perubahan iklim.
The use of fuel also supports global efforts to reduce carbon emissions and maintain ecosystem balance.
The use of low sulfur fuel has a significant positive impact on the environment. Low sulfur content can reduce the formation of fine particulates and other air pollutants that can damage human health and natural ecosystems. Low sulfur fuel also plays a role in reducing greenhouse effects.
With cleaner exhaust emissions, low sulfur fuel also contributes to lower levels of nitrogen oxide (NOx) which are often the main causes of urban air pollution. This decline in pollutants helps improve air quality, thus avoiding public health problems related to air pollution.
sulfur's low fuel offers a more environmentally friendly and efficient solution to meet fuel needs in the modern era. With the ability to reduce emissions of dangerous gases, improve engine performance, and extend engine life, this fuel is a very ideal choice to use.
