🔍 Key Concepts

• Fuel oil purification and the role of centrifuges (clarifier vs purifier operation) • How salt water and dissolved salts in fuel contribute to high-temperature corrosion of combustion components • Why water removal rate and separation efficiency matter more than just how often you drain tanks

💭 Think About

• Which choice directly improves the removal of water and salt contaminants from the fuel BEFORE it reaches the engine? • In terms of high-temperature corrosion, is the goal to detect damage after it happens, or to prevent the corrosive agents from entering the engine in the first place? • Think about how flow rate through a purifier affects separation efficiency—does slower flow generally improve or reduce removal of water and sediment?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option most clearly targets minimizing water and especially salt water in the fuel continuously, not just occasionally. • Check which action is proactive treatment of the fuel versus monitoring engine condition or just basic housekeeping. • Ask yourself: which method would a chief engineer rely on to keep salt and water content in fuel as low as possible under normal operations?
