Diesel Biocide can be used as a preventative measure or a cure to diesel bug related issues in diesel fuel.
Diesel Biocide is a multifunctional petroleum distillate fuel additive. It is used to help maintain colour stability and clarity; control bacteria, fungi, organic reaction and sludge formation; inhibit against corrosion; and disperse existent sludge.
Diesel Biocide utilises advanced chemistry of organic sulphur compounds to combat all forms of bacteria in fuel/water environments.
Diesel Biocide can be used to eliminate and/or prevent the growth of bacteria and fungi in petroleum distillate fuels and residual fuels including #1 diesel, #2 diesel, kerosene, gasoline and bunker c. Crude and Refined Oils.
Diesel Biocide is an oil-soluble preservative for the control of bacteria and fungi that cause the degradation of crude oils and refined fuel oils during storage. Crude oils and refined oils include, but are not limited to, olefinic, aromatic, paraffinic, and naphthenic oils.
Preventative
If the fuel in your tank will be unused for a period of time, it is good practice to firstly fill up your tank to avoid condensation build up and also use the Biocide to take away the environment for the Diesel Bug to grow. This 500ml bottle will treat 1000 Litres of Diesel Fuel if used as a Maintenance Treatment and 500 litres if used as a Shock Treatment.
Cure
If you are curing a diesel bug issue, we recommend adding the stated amount for Shock Treatment depending on how bad your issue is. This should be mixed well within the tank and left to work for a minimum of 24 hours. In this time the sludge formation will become loose and any living bacteria (BUG) will have been killed. This also allows time for the assistance in separation of emulsified water. This will make any cleaning process very simple. Once the engine is started for the first time after this, the treated fuel will then coat and treat the entire fuel system ensuring any further bug is destroyed.
Storage Tanks
If you refuel your Trucks, Busses, Plant & Equipment from your own onsite storage tank and have been experiencing Diesel Bug Issues; we highly recommend treating the main storage tank to cure the problem. By doing this, the treated fuel will cross treat the mobile tanks and their fuel systems. (For any questions or queries please call 01342 713743 or use the "Ask a questions" tab here)
