Dual Fuel Engine
The Dual Fuel engine is a kind of engine that uses a mixture of gas fuel or diesel fuel or can run off of diesel by its self. The dual fuel engine is not capable of working on gas alone. These engines do not have ignition systems and do not use spark plugs.
Because the engine is not a pure diesel engine and diesel is not a pure gas, this equipment does suffer from Methane slippage and fuel efficiency. Like for example, the fuel efficiency can be 5% to 8% less than in a comparable spark-ignited, lean burn engine at 100 percent load. It can even be lower or higher loads.
