CST-180 Fuel Oil and CST-380 Fuel Oil are two types of high-quality distillate fuel oils that are widely used in power generation and industrial applications. Both oils have a high viscosity index, which means they can operate efficiently at a wide range of temperatures.
CST-180 Fuel Oil has a specific gravity of around 0.88 and a viscosity of between 180 and 210 cSt. It contains a low amount of sulphur, typically less than 1%, making it suitable for use in environments with strict emissions regulations. This fuel oil is typically used in applications where high combustion efficiency and low emissions are required, such as in marine engines and large-scale power plants.
On the other hand, CST-380 Fuel Oil has a higher specific gravity and viscosity, ranging from 380 to 420 cSt. This oil is more suited for use in heavy-duty applications such as industrial boilers and heating systems, where higher viscosity is required to ensure good atomization and efficient combustion. It also has a slightly higher sulphur content than CST-180, typically between 1.
