Controlling microorganisms to ensure fuel quality

Microorganisms in fuel systems can degrade fuel color and clarity and cause corrosion that damages tanks and pipes, plugs filter systems, and creates odors. Anaerobic organisms are particularly troublesome because they liberate corrosive, foul-smelling hydrogen sulfide.

GE Water & Process Technologies offers SpecAid biocide products that kill or inhibit microbe growth in fuel tanks or distribution lines. GE technical and service professionals can evaluate your tank/piping system, assess microbe growth, and then select, apply, and monitor the performance of a biocide treatment plan tailored to meet your requirements.
