Raskasöljyjä
Raskasöljyjä, also known as heavy fuel oil (HFO) or bunker fuel, are viscous petroleum products derived from crude oil distillation. They are the least refined fractions, meaning they contain the heaviest and highest molecular weight hydrocarbon compounds. Due to their high viscosity and low volatility, raskasöljyjä are primarily used as fuel for large industrial furnaces, boilers, and ships. Their lower cost compared to lighter fuels makes them an economically attractive option for these applications.
The composition of raskasöljyjä can vary significantly depending on the crude oil source and the refining
The storage and handling of raskasöljyjä require specialized equipment due to their viscosity and potential for
