  2. Environmental Products Have Been Used In a Wide Range Of Applications

  3. Infrastructure Applications Marine – Tugs - Barges Offshore Drilling Dredging Pile Driving – Cutting - Repair Dewatering Lift Trucks - Vertical Concrete Breaking – Cutting Cranes

  4. Dredging Applications • Hydraulics • Grease • Wire Rope • Winches • Cranes • Port Equipment • Pumping

  5. Only recently have bio lubes been able to withstand the tortures and extremes of modern vessels • Long Term Durability Testing • Wet and Dry Testing • Frequent Retest Requirements • Products Disapproved • Component Review

  6. What are Environmentally Safe Fluids? Ester? Glycol? Food Grade? Environmentally Friendly? Readily Biodegradable? Synthetic? Inherently Biodegradable? Clean? Sheen? Vegetable?

  7. Two Tests: Primary Vs. Ultimate Biodegradation Biodegradation Reaction: Lubricant CH+O2 + Bugs CO2 + H2O + More Bugs (Biomass) Primary Biodegradation Ultimate Biodegradation CEC L-33- A 93 OECD 301, ASTM D 5864, ASTM D 7373 > 80% >60%

  8. Types of Biodegradability • Readily Biodegradable Hydraulic Fluids Break Down Over 80% in 21 Days – 60% in 28 Days • Inherently Biodegradable Products Break Down… Someday … after fines, cleanup, downtime and environmental destruction!

  9. Environmentally Preferable

  10. Types of Environmental OilsISO 6743/4

  11. Types of Environmental OilsISO 6743/4

  12. Inherently Biodegradable • Not Truly Biodegradable • Expensive for petroleum

  13. Conventional Vegetable FluidsHETG • Oxidative Weakness • Temperature limitations • Life expectancy • Hydrolytic Weakness • Care must be taken

  14. Polyglycol Synthetic (PAG) • Fire Resistant • Specifically Designed System • Not Compatible with Petroleum or Vegetable

  15. Synthetic Esters (HEES) • Hydrolytic Unstable • “unzips” with water • Acid formation • Seal Deterioration

  16. Ester Chemistry Vegetable Oil + Alcohol + Acid Synthetic Ester + Water + Heat

  17. Bio-polyolefin Synthetic (HEPR) • Durable • Low Cost/Long Fluid Life • Separates From Water • Good Seal Compatibility • Broad Temperature Range

  18. Application

  19. Conclusions • Making the determination to change to bio lubricants one should consider many factors • A bio oil can be more expensive initially but can save money in the long term • Bio oils have been proven in the field and can perform as well as petroleum
