Description

    CLAIM OF PRIORITY
  • This application claims the benefit of priority under 35 U.S.C. §119(a)-(d) of Chinese Patent Application Serial Number 201110058054.X, entitled “A MARINE CYLINDER OIL COMPOSITE ADDITIVE,” filed on Mar. 10, 2011, the benefit of priority of which is claimed hereby, and which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety.
  • FIELD OF THE INVENTION
  • The present invention relates to a marine cylinder oil composite additive formulation, and more particularly to a composite additive designed for cylinder oils which is applied in shipborne BOB systems.
  • BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
  • The current BOB (Blender-on-Board) online blending system equipped on ocean vessels is an automatic control system that blends the marine system oil with a composite additive which is designed for the marine lubricating oils in the BOB system so as to provide a cylinder oil that have an optional target base number, and such cylinder oil can be rapidly transferred to the engine in order to meet the different requirements for the base number of the cylinder oil in cases of using fuels with different sulfur contents. A schematic diagram for the operating principle of BOB online blending system is shown in FIG. 1.
  • The operating procedure of the BOB system is as follows: the system oil is pumped from the main oil tank to each lubrication point of the engine so as to provide lubrication and thereafter recycled back to the main oil tank, wherein part of the system oil is side-drawn and then blended with a composite additive in the BOB blending device to form a cylinder oil with required base numbers, which is burned off after fulfilling lubrication, and the residue thereof flows into a waste oil tank.
  • The composite additives designed for the BOB system are remarkably different from the traditional marine lubricating oils. The later are lubricating oil products with fixed base numbers, which are produced in blending plants and may be directly used by adding into the oil tank of vessels, whereas the former are additives produced by blending plants and blended with the system oil before adding into a tank of vessels so as to provide marine cylinder oils with different base numbers in order to meet the requirement of the use in engines.
  • Therefore, the composite additives designed for the BOB system have several features in terms of the technical requirement:
  • 1. Sufficient antiwear and antioxidization properties should be preserved when relatively low dosage is used;
  • 2. Good compatibility to system oils under different brands;
  • 3. The composite additive should satisfy the requirement of being pumped within the BOB system and fit with the blending system.
  • According to the novelty search within Chinese and worldwide patents, no related reference documents are found in the field of both shipborne BOB online blending system and the composite additive designed the BOB system.
  • It can be known from the corresponding Chinese and worldwide patents that the sulfonate detergent with superhigh base number has excellent detergency and dispersion performances and the sulfurized calcium phenolate has excellent antiwear and antioxidization performances, and thus the cylinder oil formulation is commonly composed by the sulfonate detergent and the sulfurized calcium phenolate; the naphthenate has good oil film diffusibility, and the burned residue thereof is relatively soft and readily cleaned by the lubricating oil. Such combustion behavior of the naphthenate is particularly important for the “disposable” cylinder oil, and its relatively fast diffusion rate on the cylinder wall could just compensate for the lacking of oil film strength at low injection rate.
  • The application of the cylinder oil composite additive formulation comprising three detergents of the sulfonate detergent, sulfurized calcium phenolate detergent and naphthenate detergent can not only enhance the performance of the cylinder oil but also utilize the abundant naphthenate resource of PetroChina so as to build significant superiority in the technology of marine oil self-owned by PetroChina.
  • SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
  • The purpose of the present invention is to provide a marine cylinder oil composite additive that can not only satisfy the requirement of the marine BOB online blending system but also have wide adaptability.

  • The composite additive designed for the BOB system using triple detergents provided by the present invention can be blended with system oils so as to provide cylinder oils that can satisfy the requirement of the engine. Such composite additive has been tested by sailing over 4000 hours wherein BP Energol OE-HT30 is used as the system oil by the vessel, and has been technically certified by MAN B&W. Samples of the fresh/waste cylinder oils using such composite additive during the sailing were monitored, and the data are illustrated in FIG. 2.
  • Throughout the test of 4000 hours, the base number of the cylinder oil formulated from the composite additive decreased from 70 mgKOH/g at the beginning, through 60 mgKOH/g and 50 mgKOH/g, to 40 mgKOH/g at the end. The entire sailing test could be divided into four stages according to the base number of the cylinder oil, and each stage lasted about 1000 hours.
  • It can be clearly seen from FIG. 2 that the residual base number in the waste oil was not notably decreased, and the Fe content resulted from the wear was not notably increased, either, that is, the both important index fluctuated within normal ranges.
  • 1. The Fe content in the waste oil was never abnormally high, and the Fe content of all the samples was always less than 150 ppm, which satisfied the requirement of the engine OEM about the performance of cylinder oils;
  • 2. The residue base number of the waste oil from the four different stages tended to decrease due to the decrease of the base number of fresh oils. Furthermore, even if the cylinder oil with a base number of 40 mgKOH/g was used, the residue base number in the waste oil was still above 15 mgKOH/g. It is shown that the composite additive has strong ability to “store” the base number, and thus effectively prevent the wear of engine parts to occur.
  • In conclusion, the cylinder oil maintained steady combination performance in case that the variation of the dosage of the composite additive reached the extent close to 50%, especially in terms of the antiwear performance under extreme pressure and the ability to preserve the base number. The test results sufficiently satisfied the requirement of the engine about the lubricating oil performance and were technically certified by the engine OEM.
