Dual Fuel Engine
Dual Fuel or DF Engines are the kind of engines that can work on a mixture of gas fuel or diesel fuel or it could run on diesel fuel alone. Duel Fuel engines can not run on gas alone since they do not posses an ignition system, nor do they possess any spark plugs.
Since diesel is not a pure gas, and it is not a pure diesel designed engine, it has some disadvantages in the department of fuel efficiency, as well as Methane slippage.. For example, the fuel efficiency may be 5% to 8% less than in a comparable spark-ignited, lean burn engine at 100 percent load. It could even be greater on lower loads.
