Diesel Fuel Problems

When Bio-Diesel becomes contaminated with water, it becomes the breeding ground for bacteria and fungus.
These contaminants can clog the filters and inhibit rust formation in your Bio- Diesel tanks.

E-10 Fuel Problems

Phase Separation occurs when water is present in E-10 gasoline. When gasoline containing Ethanol comes in contact with water, either liquid or in the form of humidity, the ethanol will absorb the water.
Ethanol is used in E-10 Gasoline to increase octane ratings.
The result will lower the octane rating and can cause severe engine damage, depending on the severity of the contamination.

Benefits of Fuel Polishing and Tank Cleaning

Reduced Costumer Complaints

By having your tanks maintained by CLEANTANKS you can remove the filter clogging moisture and bacteria from fuel storage tanks thereby reducing the need to change dispenser filters.

Elimination of Down Time

Fuel Storage tanks that are properly cleaned and maintained suffer far less down time then tanks that are only serviced when pumps slow down and water is found on tank bottoms.

Eliminate Expensive Emergency Service Calls

Emergency service calls are sometimes done with vacuum service trucks to remove the tank bottom water. Using vacuum trucks without fuel/water separators; fuel retailers can lose as much as 500-1,000 liters of product along with the water.

Fuel Tank Cleaning Facts:

A micron is a metric measure equal to one millionth of a meter, or 1/25,000th of an inch. The smallest particle visible to the naked eye is 40 microns across. A human hair is 80 microns in diameter, and a single grain of talcum powder is 15 microns.
Emergency service calls are sometimes done with vacuum service trucks to remove the tank bottom water. Using vacuum trucks without fuel/water separators; fuel retailers can lose as much as 500-1,000 liters of product along with the water.
Emergency Station down time is costly and should be prevented at all cost.
Tank cleaning is a relative term. A clean tank should be able to store fuel in a condition that exceeds the engine manufacturers.
Most fuel storage tanks do not have a protective coating on the inside; only raw metal with tiny pores that become home to fungi and acidic bacteria when any moisture is present.
Water presence in your tanks is a big No-No Phase Separation and can lead to rust formation and eventual tank leak if water remains for a long period of time.
The most damaging fungi and bacteria problem is found floating at the fuel/water interface at the storage tank bottom. his contamination can easily be ingested into your engine's fuel pickup tube, clog your filters and stop your engine.
Removing tank bottom water and the interface microbes will eliminate 98% of filter clogging problems.
CLEANTANKS application can remove water and contaminants with minimal product loss
