We’ve been around since 1909, so we’ve seen all the changes in fuels over the years. Today’s ULSD diesel fuels have specific characteristics, brought about because of regulatory requirements and limitations on its composition, that mean certain kinds of problems predominate in the situations you’re likely to see with your customers.
ULSD Problems - Water and Microbes
ULSD has more water problems than fuels of the past, and its environmentally-friendly compositions mean vastly more microbes problems in diesel fuel. In fact, it’s not an overstatement to say that microbes and water are behind most fuel problems your customer see today.
Bell Performance has commercial-grade solutions to give you the tools to solve these problems for your customers. Bellicide and ClearKill are industry-leading biocides for eliminating microbial growth in fuel and fuel tanks. DFS Plus also helps clean up water from hard-to-reach places in diesel fuel storage tanks.
Solving Cloudy Fuel Problems
