Addressing the Issue In every fuel tank, microbial colonies have the potential to flourish. While microbes are ubiquitous, they require fuel and water to proliferate. When water is present in the tank, these microbes find optimal conditions for growth, leading to fuel contamination and tank degradation. Factors such as warm weather and the use of… Read more »

The Science Behind Effective Fuel Filtration Systems: How Do They Work?
Effective fuel filtration systems are crucial for maintaining the integrity and performance of engines, whether in vehicles, machinery, or industrial equipment. These systems work by removing contaminants from the fuel before it reaches the engine, thereby preventing damage and ensuring optimal operation. Here’s an overview of the science behind how they work:
What is Fuel Polishing?
Fuel polishing is a process that involves filtering and purifying stored fuel to remove contaminants, water, and sediments that may have accumulated over time. It is commonly used for diesel fuel and other types of stored fuels to ensure their quality, maintain optimal performance, and prevent damage to engines or equipment. Fuel polishing is particularly… Read more »
What is Fuel Polishing & why you need it.
Hey there! Are you tired of your diesel fuel getting contaminated and causing all sorts of problems for your equipment? Our portable fuel polishing system is here to save the day (and your fuel). Here’s the deal: our system uses cutting-edge filter-less purifier technology to remove 99% of water and solid contaminants from your fuel…. Read more »
What is the minimum to do to?
It has been determined by the 28 day, stored diesel fuel begins to become contaminated and start to degrade. Diesel fuel can only be stored from 6 to 12 months and not expect some sort of effects of bad fuel if you do nothing. Many companies suggest to effect the life of the of stored… Read more »
Case Study May 2021
The C18 has between 400 and 700 HP so the fuel flow can be between 72 GPH and 126 GPH. The choice of TFP80 from the other manufactures is too small. Based on its size the residence time of the fuel is less than 20 seconds. Our 5×8 because of the design will give 30… Read more »
Why Fuel Polishing
Fuel polishing is the cleaning process used to remove contamination from diesel fuel in storage. It is the removal of water, sediment and microbial contamination. This contamination builds up over time if they aren’t tested and treated regularly. Stored fuel will have some of the following issues for sure any of which will lead to… Read more »
Do I Have a Problem With “Algae” In My Diesel Fuel Tank?
Technically speaking, algae cannot grow inside of a diesel fuel tank. Algae requires sunlight to grow, so it’s impossible for it to thrive in the darkness of a diesel fuel tank. However, there are microbes like mold, bacteria, and fungus that can find their way into your diesel fuel tank and wreak havoc in it… Read more »
Clogged Fuel Filters and Cannot Solve the Problem?
What is the problem, it is not algae sludge. A lot of people wee fooled for a long time. Relatively clear fuel but clogged filters after 2,000 mile in a Class 8 Truck. The problem was constant filter clogging with a black colored material. Generally if it is a fuel tank with a black film… Read more »
Diesel Fuel Quality is a Question not a Guarantee
Diesel Fuel Quality is a Question not a Guarantee Diesel engine designs striving to increase engine performance have made great advancements in engine fuel delivery to the combustion chamber. Today’s diesel engine is quieter, smoother, and more powerful. But today’s diesel engine owners are overlooking one important factor. The quality of today’s diesel fuel has… Read more »
