Changes in fuel quality and stability occur naturally. This 5 Step Program cleans up contamination problems in existing tanks as well as new installations. Our philosophy is: Operate Clean From The Start
A
sample is pulled from the tank with a portable sampling and on-site
test kit. The sample is then examined to determine if contamination
exists. Fuel deterioration is a natural effect with time and weather
being the biggest factors. Water naturally
builds up in the tank through condensation and transportation.
This condensation promotes bacterial colonization and fungi growth
along with clouding and gel formation. Dirt and rust, combined
with water on metal surfaces, create oxidation, which changes
the fuel to a dark brown color. The natural
repolymerization process creates gums and resins, which interfere
with pumpability and combustibility that lead to system shutdown
emissions and potential problems meeting EPA standards. |

The second step is to run an analytical test to determine the type and extent of organic and inorganic fuel contamination. The results of organic contamination are far-reaching. Your equipment becomes inefficient as fuel becomes non-combustible and non-pumpable. Use of contaminated fuel can also lead to rapid abrasive wear and costly repairs because of clogged in-line filters and exploded injectors. Productivity is lost when your employees are forced to shift their focus from the work at hand to equipment repairs. |

After receiving the results of the analysis, write a prescription of care to correct the problems that are being experienced. Most commonly the prescription will consist of the correct dosages of JCH Fuel treatment for the organic contamination.
The Enviro, a stand-alone close looped fuel filtration system. "The Diesel Dialysis Solution", removes inorganic contamination. In-line purification, filtration or water separation, should be prescribed if day tanks are used. |
If
there is excessive water and bio-film build up in the tank, it must be removed
after treatment and before the installation of the Enviro fuel filtration
system. Treatment is used beforehand to help with
the contaminant removal process. Use of the JCH Fuel Treatment and the installation of the Enviro fuel filtration system will bring
your problems under control. |

The final step is to provide the correct preventative dosages of the JCH Fuel Treatment and adjusting the frequency of application. The Enviro fuel filtration system can be programmed for a preventative maintenance schedule providing your company with a well-rounded fuel quality management program that eliminates fuel contamination before it can occur. |
