Dual Fuel Engine

The Dual Fuel engine is a kind of engine which uses a mixture of gas fuel or diesel fuel or can work off of diesel by its self. The dual fuel engine is not capable of running on gas alone. These engines do not have ignition systems and do not use spark plugs.



As the engine is not a pure diesel engine and diesel is not a pure gas, this machine does suffer from Methane slippage and fuel efficiency. For example, the fuel efficiency may be 5% to 8% less than in a comparable spark-ignited, lean burn engine at 100% load. It could even be greater on lower loads.



Lift Truck Classification and Fuel Sources

There are certain recycling materials handling applications that could prove very difficult for lift trucks. For instance, scrap metal is one of these issues. To be able to successfully handle things like this needs using the right kind of machinery for the task.



In this write-up, the 7 major lift truck classes are discussed, including the power sources such as liquid propane gas, hydrogen fuel cell, electric, gasoline and diesel. The power source is linked to some of these specific classes. The main power sources for forklifts include Gasoline, Battery, Diesel, Fuel Cell and Propane.



Electric powered trucks are the most common, mostly Class I, II and class III forklifts. Internal combustion engines are more popular in Classes V and IV. The most common electric power source is the lead-acid battery. Among internal combustion trucks, around over 90 percent are powered by propane.



The most common power source for lift trucks is battery. Battery powered units make up roughly 60 percent of the new forklifts sold in the USA. Their benefits consist of: less maintenance requirements, quiet operation, the ability to be utilized outside and inside with no harmful emissions.
