FUEL BIOCONTROL is a special designed liquid biocide that provides complete control against bacteria and microorganisms, which can infect fuel storage tanks and fuel systems, therefore degrading the fuel properties.
Characteristics, Advantages & Applications
- Powerful at the fuel-water interface where microbe growth is most dynamic.
- Maintains homogeneity and stabilization of the fuel, this leads to the improved combustion.
- Provides complete disappearance of the microorganisms, which contaminate fuel storage tanks and systems.
- Can be added directly to the fuel tank.
- Cost effective, easy to handle and use.
- Prevents corrosion in fuel systems.
- Keeps filters, nozzles and injectors free from clogging.
- Will not harm metallic parts and synthetic rubber.
- Completely biodegradable with fast results.
- Characterized by its very good biocidal and biostatic effect.

Application and Use
A. Dosing Procedure
FUEL BIOCONTROL dosage depends on a number of factors such as the type of system being treated, the nature and the extent of microbial contamination and the degree of control required. In case of preventive treatment, 0.2 lt – 0.4 lt of FUEL BIOCONTROL must be added per tone of fuel. For the contaminated fuel distillation 2 lt of FUEL BIOCONTROL is a sufficient quantity per tone of fuel. In cases of filter blockages a shock dosing of 10 lt FUEL BIOCONTROL is recommended per tone of fuel.
B. Feeding Procedure
FUEL BIOCONTROL is best added to the dewatered tank that is about a third full. When the tank is filled, the product is mixed into the system. In cases of heavy fouling, the system should, if possible, be cleaned before FUEL BIOCONTROL is used.
