as the substitution of a fuel part for water reduces the combustion temperature once the vaporization of emulsified water needs an additional energy consumption, it is recommended that we should have an average value.

Parker Energy Systems, a division of Parker Hannifin, has introduced a patent-pending fuel polishing system designed to remove emulsified water from fuel systems and combat the accumulation of water in diesel fuel, preventing corrosion and maximizing the effectiveness of filters.

Even after removing 8,000 gallons of bunker fuel and oily water from a tank in 2007, somewhere between 3,000 and 5,000 gallons of fuel remain in that ship, and the Hennebique holds 140,000 gallons of emulsified water and fuel.
