High quality MAZUT- M100 | Grade A |
Mazut is a heavy, low quality fuel oil, used in generating plants and similar applications.Â
Mazut is blended or broken down, with the end product being diesel.
Mazut may be used for heating houses in countries of the Far East that do not have the facilities toÂ
blend or break it down into more conventional petro-chemicals. Furnaces that burn mazut are commonlyÂ
called "waste oil" heaters or "waste oil" furnaces.
Mazut-100 is a fuel oil that is manufactured to GOST specifications, for example GOST 10585-75/99.
GOST is the Russian system of standards. Mazut is almost exclusively manufactured in the Russian Federation,Â
This product is typically used for larger boilers in producing steam since the BTU content is high.Â
The most important consideration when grading this fuel is the sulfur content, which can mostly beÂ
affected by the source feed stock.
For shipment purposes, this product has a high viscosity which drastically affect whether it is able toÂ
be pumped, shipping has unique requirements. Mazut is much like 6 Oil, and is part of the productsÂ
left over after gasolighter components are evaporated from the crude oil.
The main difference between the different types of Mazut-100 is the content of sulr.Â
The grades are represented by these sulfuric levels:
âVery Low Sulrâ is mazut with a sulr content of 0.5%
âLow Sulrâ is a mazut with a sulr content of 0.5-1.0%
âNormal Sulrâ is a mazut with a sulr content of 1.0-2.0%
âHigh Sulrâ is a mazut with a sulr content of 2.0-3.5%
Very Low Sulfur mazut is generally made from the lowest sulfur crude feedstocks.
