Methanol Fuel Transfer System

Overview of the Methanol Fuel Transfer System (MFSS)

The Methanol Fuel Transfer System (MFSS) consists of several fundamental subsystems, including the filling and transfer module, the primary supply unit, auxiliary support systems, as well as safety and control mechanisms. We have the capability to independently design and manufacture MFSS units or deliver fully tailored solutions that meet specific client needs.

Product Specifications

Product Overview

1. METHANOL SUPPLY UNIT – This component ensures that methanol parameters—such as pressure, temperature, flow rate, and purity—consistently align with specifications set by engine manufacturers. It provides stable pressure and flow regardless of engine load and maintains reliability during startup, shutdown, or transitional phases.

2. FILLING & DELIVERY SYSTEM – Designed strictly per SOLAS-IBC Code standards applicable to chemical tankers, this system guarantees the safe management of methanol throughout bunkering, storage, and transfer processes, considering its low flashpoint, toxicity, and corrosive nature.

3. MODULAR STRUCTURE FOR FLEXIBLE DEPLOYMENT – The modular design of the system enables flexible installation and adaptation to the vessel configuration. It can function as a standalone unit or be integrated into a complete system.

4. FULL COMPLIANCE WITH SAFETY STANDARDS – Constructed to comply with both SOLAS-IBC chemical safety requirements and IGF Code standards for low flashpoint fuels, the system ensures safe and compliant operations at all times.

5. CUSTOMIZED SOLUTIONS FOR SHIPOWNERS – Whether for new builds or retrofitting projects, we deliver customized solutions that are dependable and adaptable to operational requirements.

Installation Process

1. Thoroughly review the vessel’s design documentation and interface specifications, addressing any outstanding technical issues beforehand.

2. Gather all necessary installation tools and equipment, ensuring all safety protocols are followed prior to commencement.

3. Transport the prefabricated methanol fuel supply module to the installation site, positioning it using appropriate lifting machinery.

4. Secure the module's base to the vessel structure, ensuring accurate alignment and compliance with flatness and stability standards according to design specifications.

5. Connect the methanol piping, auxiliary pipelines, and control cables, checking the integrity of seals and verifying all electrical connections.

6. Perform subsystem-level and integrated system tests to ensure that the bunkering, supply, and safety control functions operate correctly.
