AN IMPROVED FUEL BLENDING SYSTEM AND METHOD

摘要

A system 300 for blending of fuel from a plurality of components 395, comprising a blend property control 315 for establishing a ratio of the components required to meet properties of a blended fuel specification; a blend ratio control 335, in communication with the blend property control, for maintaining the component ratio; an analyzer array and sampling system 355, in communication with the blend ratio control 335 analyzing fuel during the blending process in order to determine actual properties of the blended fuel; wherein the system 300 is arranged to permit the actual properties to be communicated to the blend property control 315, said blend property control 315 arranged to compare the actual properties with the blended fuel specification properties and to calculate a revised component ratio required to adjust the blend fuel 405 to meet the blended fuel specification.
