As a fuel manager, you know the frustration of dealing with cloudy fuel. This isn't just an aesthetic issue; it's a sign of a deeper problem that won’t resolve on its own. Cloudy fuel indicates the presence of emulsified water and contaminants, which can wreak havoc on engines and fuel systems if left untreated. They will also trigger failure on inspection results when one of the criteria is a clear and bright appearance.
The kind of fuel-water emulsions that make your fuel cloudy will not resolve on their own. The water droplets are being held in place by “something” - typically some kind of natural of chemical surfactant that’s keeping the microdroplets suspended instead of letting them fall out naturally.
You’re going to need some help.
When You Need Bell Demulsifier EB
If you know you have cloudy fuel, you know you need a demulsifier, sometimes called an “emulsion breaker”. However, the solution isn't as simple as adding any demulsifier to your fuel. The right approach and product can make all the difference. That's where Demulsifier EB comes in.
The Bell Demulsifier EB Solution For Clearing Up Emulsified Water In Fuel
Bell Demulsifier EB is designed specifically to tackle the toughest fuel-water emulsions, breaking down the cloudy mixture into clear, usable fuel and separated water. Here’s why Bell Demulsifier EB stands out:
High Efficiency: Quickly separates water from fuel, restoring clarity and performance.
Easy Application: Engineered for straightforward use, ensuring you achieve optimal results without complicated procedures.
Reliable Performance: Tested and proven in various conditions to ensure consistent, reliable outcomes.
Using A Demulsifier Treatment Effectively
Using any kind of demulsifier involves more than just adding it to your fuel. Successfully resolving problem emulsions to make your fuel clear again means following these steps to ensure the best results:
- Identify the Problem: Confirm that your fuel cloudiness is due to an emulsion. This could be done through water-finding paste or through running a Water By Karl Fischer test, which will confirm the excess water content of your fuel.
- Measure Accurately: Determine the correct dosage of Demulsifier EB based on the volume of fuel and severity of the emulsion.
- Mix Thoroughly But Don’t Overmix: Add Bell Demulsifier EB to your fuel and ensure thorough mixing. This can be achieved by recirculating the fuel or using mechanical agitation. However, you don’t want to overmix the two, because excess mixing can actually re-entrain the water back into your fuel. And nobody wants that.
- Allow Separation Time: Give the demulsifier time to work. As the demulsifier breaks the bonds holding it in place, the water will separate and settle at the bottom of the tank. But you have to let this happen naturally, as nothing will actually force the water out of the fuel faster than just natural processes.
- Remove Water: After the formerly entrained water has been allowed to fall out and form a free water phase, drain the separated water from the bottom of the tank to prevent re-emulsification.
