Product Overview:

CarbonSolv™ IgniVa I50 is a high-performance cetane improver engineered to optimize ignition quality and combustion efficiency in marine fuels, specifically Very Low Sulphur Fuel Oil (VLSFO) and Marine Gas Oil (MGO). By increasing the cetane number, IgniVa I50 ensures quicker ignition, more complete combustion, and improved fuel economy while reducing stack emissions and particulate matter.

CarbonSolv IgniVa I50 is fully compatible with ISO 8217 compliant fuels and with commonly used marine engine materials of construction.

Performance Benefits :

Improved Ignition Quality

Raises cetane number to shorten ignition delay and enhance cold starting.

Optimized Combustion

Higher combustion efficiency leads to measurable fuel savings.

Cleaner Engine Operation

Reduces soot, deposits, and smoke, extending engine life and overhaul intervals.

Lower Emissions

Cuts CO, NOx, SOx, and particulate output, supporting decarbonization goals.

Enhanced Fuel Stability

Disperses sludge, inhibits corrosion, and reduces stratification.

Performance Evaluation

Cetane improvers act by decomposing early during compression stroke to release free radicals, accelerating ignition kinetics.

In VLSFO and MGO, this:

  • - Reduces ignition delay → smoother combustion.
  • - Increases peak pressure at the right crank angle → higher engine efficiency.
  • - Results in lower SFOC (2–5% reduction demonstrated in field trials).
  • - Improves thermal release per unit fuel, reducing excess fuel injection for same power output.

IgniVa – I50 Series

CarbonSolv™ IgniVa I50 is a high-performance cetane improver designed to enhance ignition quality and combustion efficiency in marine fuels, including Very Low Sulphur Fuel Oil (VLSFO) and Marine Gas Oil (MGO). By boosting the cetane number, IgniVa I50 enables faster ignition, more complete combustion, improved fuel economy, and reduced stack emissions and particulate matter.
