Why Go for Gas?Gas to EnergyClean, efficient and flexibleGas is an increasingly popular option for power generation.One reason is the growing availability of gas viagrids and LNG; another is its value for money. A keyadvantage of gas power plants is their flexibility: theycan be activated rapidly, making them an excellentsource of peaking baseload power.Above all, gas has a lower environmental impact. Thatmakes gas an attractive choice to meet strict emissionslimits or take advantage of green power incentives.And because it burns cleanly, a gas power plant canbe built close to urban areas.Even better, gas engines can produce combined heatand power (CHP). By harnessing the thermal energythat is a by-product of generating electrical energy,these systems achieve exceptional levels of efficiency.In other words, CHP, or cogeneration as it is also known,saves even more money, saves even more energy andis even better for the environment.Gas is cleanLow emissions and high efficiency in energy productionplay a key role in investment decisions. As emissionrequirements and regulations become more and morestringent, gas offers many advantages:• Low CO 2 emissions• Low NO x emissions• No SO x emissions• No particle emissionsCO 2 , NO X and SO X emissions of different fuelsGas is efficientProducing electricity from gas is highly efficient. Gaspower plant operation and maintenance costs arelower than those of plants burning other fossil fuels.Gas is flexibleNo matter what your requirements are – power generation,CHP or tri-generation – MAN Diesel & Turbo gasengines reliably supply cost-effective energy.Index CO 2 NO X SO X100755025Coal Oil Natural Gas10080601007020100700MAN B&W Diesel4 Gas Power PlantsGas Power Plants5

Engines that DeliverEfficiency, reliability and durabilityThe 51/60DF EngineDual-fuel flexibilityOur engines can achieve extremely high efficiencies (up to 90 per cent when usedin combined heat and power plants). And our engines are also famously reliable.They require very little maintenance, which means less unproductive downtime.Dual fuel flexibilityRetrofitsMAN Diesel & Turbo’s dual-fuel engines will run on gas, If you already have a MAN Diesel & Turbo engine butdiesel, biofuel or heavy fuel oil (HFO), giving greater want to take advantage of gas, we may even be ablefuel flexibility. If one kind of fuel becomes difficult to to convert your existing engine.

Efficient and environmentally friendly, the versatileV51/60DF can be operated on a variety of fuels.Diverse fuel optionsThe 51/60DF engine is designed for operation with Very low firing pressure fluctuations between theliquid and gaseous fuels. In liquid fuel operation, the cylinders mean the engine runs smoothly. And a leanenginecan run on HFO with a viscosity of up to 700 burn gas/air mixture results in very low NO x values.mm²/s (cSt) at 50°C (specified in CIMAC 2003 H/K700/DIN ISO 8217). Between 20 per cent and 100 per cent Reliable outputload, the engine can operate continuously with HFO.

This allows the engine to be used in aIn gas operation, the engine injects a minimal quantityof pilot fuel into the prechamber. This amounts delivering security in a precarious supply situation. Forwide array of settings, from providing redundancy toto just one per cent of diesel oil consumption in gas example, the 51/60DF can be deployed in a backupgenset, in case of power supply interruptions.
