Zusammenfassung:A fuel supply system 12 of an internal combustion engine 14, preferably a marine diesel engine, for supplying a fuel emulsion to a fuel injection system 16 of the engine 14. The fuel supply system 12 includes at least one actuated blending unit 30 configured to blend a primary fuel and a secondary fuel to provide the fuel emulsion prior to being supplied to the fuel injection system 16. The actuated blending unit being power-operated (e.g. pneumatically, hydraulically, or mechanically driven) and configured to process the fuel emulsion such that, upon being discharged from the blending unit 30, the fuel emulsion has a mean droplet size of dispersed phase which is smaller than 100 µm.
