How do we
ensure
Diesel is
clean
TATA Petroluem Tanker
Bio degradation of Diesel Fuel
A harmful and costly
phenomenon
Customers loose millions of Dollars
every year
It is happening to you too, affecting
profitability & Damaging
environment.
How does Microbes come in to
the fuel?
Through inadequate sealing systems of
Storage tanks
From various stages of handling
From water in the fuel
Microbes are there from the storage tank itself
Equipment corrosion
Contaminated diesel
•Microbial activities produce corrosive acids in
the fuel
•Bio surfactants produced by microbes help
diesel to emulsify with water.
•Fuel Calorific value and characteristics
changes.
•Accelerated Blockage of filter elements.
•Corrosion in tank, fuel pipe, pump and nozzle
•Increased fuel consumption and emission
•Hazard to operators and environment
Sulfate reducing bacteria produces poisonous
byproducts more poisonous than cyanide
Manifestation of Microbes in fuel
Black & slimy filter elements
Sludge and slime in the tank
Corrosion of fuel pump and tank
Corrosion of injector nozzles.
Increased emission
Lack of power,
High fuel consumption
Corroded Nozzles
Corroded Fuel Pump
Blocked Filters
Common myths
Microbes in the fuel? No way!
sludge and slime is from rain water
and mud from the underground
tank- Can’t be from Bacteria.
Filter blockage is from adulterated
diesel.
How do we deal with the
problem?
Proprietary Biocide( Fuel Additives)
( Costly, recurring expenditure & harmful
but not effective)
ECOTECH FUELMAG-
Flow through Fuel conditioner
(Permanent and economical)
Effects of biocide treatment. Dead Slime
Floating on diesel.
Proprietary Biocide
For effective removal of bacteria, fuel
must be tested to identify the type of
bacteria.
There isn’t a single biocide which
would act on all bacteria. Similar to
antibiotics.
Some bacteria may be affected leaving
the rest to multiply faster.
Costly and harmful to workers and
environment.
BP and Mobil have banned its
employees from using Biocides
ECOTECH FUELMAG
Tested and proven technology type
approved by Bureau Veritas
Break up the bio film of microbes to let
it pass through the filter elements along
with the diesel to be burnt in the
engine.
