One problem that occurs with fuel storage systems is the inadvertent mixing of bacteria, water build up, air borne contaminants, and oxidized fuel particles that come together to form sludge. Contaminated fuel can corrode injectors, pumps, and tanks leading to deficient combustion, carbon build up, smoke, loss of power and even engine failure.

With fluctuating fuel prices, fuel polishing can effectively remove harmful sludge, water and other contaminants from storage tanks and extend the useful life of the fuel. Fuel polishing preserves the integrity of stored fuel, improves filter-ability, reverses the process of sludge build up, removes water, ensures tank cleanliness and maintains peak engine performance.
