Bio Kleen Diesel Fuel Biocide
A diesel fuel biocide.
This dual-phased (effective in both diesel fuel and water) biocide kills microbes in fuel, including bacteria and fungus. Use this product to rid your fuel system of microbial contamination.
Bio Kleen Diesel Fuel Biocide kills microbes in diesel fuel. The dramatically reduced sulfur content in today’s cleaner burning fuels has created ideal opportunities for microbes to grow in fuel tanks. The first indication of microbial contamination is mucous-like accumulations on fuel-filters and increased requirements for fuel-filter replacement. The only way to get rid of microbial contamination is to kill the microbes with a biocide.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does biodiesel contain higher amounts of water than regular diesel fuel?
Biodiesel can contain up to 10 times more water than standard petroleum diesel fuel. This excess water can end up in your fuel tank and result in numerous problems, including accelerated fuel-filter plugging, microbial contamination and icing problems in winter. Power Service recommends treating with Clear-Diesel Fuel & Tank Cleaner at least quarterly, or as needed, to remove water. Clear-Diesel also disperses contaminants and stabilizes fuel during long-term storage.
Did you know?
Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) fuel has more problems with microbial contamination than previous higher sulfur fuels. Since ULSD can no longer carry water dissolved in solution, more water is shedding to the bottom of fuel tanks, creating a life-support system and breeding ground for microbes. Parrafin content has increased as sulfur and aromatics decrease, providing a major food source to microbes. Additionally, sulfur is a natural poison to bacteria and fungus and its reduction has further exacerbated microbial contamination problems in ULSD.
When to use a biocide
Make visual inspections of bulk-storage tanks. Dark, slimy growth may be detected at the interface area between the diesel fuel and the water-bottom or throughout the fuel. A “rotten egg” odor may also be detected. Look for slime on interior walls of tanks and in the sump area – check water drawn from the sump area for slimy debris. Microbial growth can multiply rapidly and may form into long strings and form mats or globules. These are the most common signs of contamination and require immediate treatment.
