FQS 1.5 Microbicide®

FQS 1.5 Microbicide® is an EPA approved antimicrobial agent used in the control of bacteria and fungi in fuel systems that store liquid hydrocarbon fuels and oils such as: crude oils, petrochemical feed stocks, liquefied petroleum gasses, gasoline, diesel fuel oils, aviation fuels, kerosene, coal slurries, renewable fuel blend stock and renewable fuel blends.

 

FQS 1.5 Microbicide® has the same active ingredients as *Kathon FP 1.5 Microbicide.  It also has the same speed of kill, proven treat rate of 1:10,000, persistence and pricing.

 

FAST ACTING – FQS 1.5 Microbicide® has shown to decrease microbial activity in as quickly as 5 hours after initial treatment.

 

TREAT RATE: Typical effective treat rate is 100 ppm or 1 gallon FQS 1.5 Microbicide® to 10,000 gallons fuel product.  Fuel systems with severe microbial contamination can undergo treatments of up to 400 ppm.

FQS 4005 - Biodiesel/Biofuel Stabilizer

FQS 4005 is a combination of stabilizers specially formulated to enhance the stability of Biodiesel (B100) and Biodiesel / Petroleum Diesel Blends (BXX).

 

FQS 4005 is applicable for B100 and BXX blended fuels for on-road, off-road, home heating, marine, rail, and power generation applications. FQS 4005 is a middle distillate fuel additive that provides the following functional and performance properties:

 

  • Superior Rancimant (EN 14112) Stability enhancement in B100 and BXX Blends, extends biofuel storage stability.

  • Inhibits peroxide formation, protects against elastomer degradation

  • Minimizes affects of peroxide degradation, diminishes polymers formation, and formation of malodorous volatile acids

  • Protects against acid induced degradation, complexes the corrosive acidic by products of biodegradation Excellent against metal catalyzed degradation, inhibits detrimental effects of metal contamination

  • Provides detergency to BXX Blends, inhibits varnishing attributed to fuel instability

 

40CFR80.591

Compliance Statement: The sulfur content of this diesel fuel additive does not exceed 15 ppm. Treat Ratio: 600 - 1000 mg/L; 210 - 350 ptb 0.68 - 1.12 gal/ 1000 gal; 169.6 cc / 40 gal

Bug Alert® Test Kit

Effective control of microbial contamination through biocide use is only possible when routine monitoring of fungi and bacteria levels are performed. The Bug Alert® test kit make routine determinations of fungal and bacteria populations quick and easy. The Bug Alert® test kit contains flexible plastic strips to which nutrient-containing filter paper is attached. The kit is complete and ready to use. No special equipment or training is necessary. Test results can be read Aerobic Bacteria (AB) 24-36 hrs and Yeast & Mold (YM) 72 hrs.

 

The YM stands for Yeast and Molds (fungi), these are closely related organisms and generally require the same conditions for growth. Results may be read as early as 72 hours and may take an additional 3 days. The AB stands for Aerobic Bacteria, those organisms which require oxygen. Most bacteria that contaminates the industrial environment are in this category and will grow on the AB test strip. The kit contains dehydrated pads and requires no refrigeration.

 

If the test strips are positive for bugs, call FQS to consult possible treatment options. If the test strips are negative, the next step would be to check for SRB (Sulfate Reducing Bacteria) anaerobic bacteria to determine if this might be the problem. A bottom fuel sample is required for microbiological testing.

 

Kits are complete and ready to use.

 

No special training needed.

 

Test results can be read as early as 72 hours.

 

The Bug Alert® Test Kit is a good “go” - “no go” microbial fuel test .

 

Product Number: FQS-005

The HY-LiTE® Rapid Microbial Test for Fuel Systems can be used for testing of: Jet A, Jet A1, Jet B, JP8, JP8+100, F34/F35, gasoline, diesel, biodiesel B100 and biodiesel blends, marine diesel and ethanol blends.

 

  • Complies with ASTM D7463 ATP Test Method.

  • Simple to perform with results in 10 minutes or less.

  • The test will detect the presence of metabolically active microorganisms.

  • The test results are not affected by the presence of di-EGME (FSII) or approved levels of biocides (100 ppm FQS 1.5 Microbicide or 270 ppm Biobor JF).

MicrobMonitor2® 
Test Kit
393A2040.jpg

MicrobMonitor2® Test Kit is IATA approved and recognized by major airframe manufacturers for aviation fuel and is easy to use. You can test the water or fuel phase of aviation fuel. The kit consists of a test bottle containing a nutrient gel that promotes the growth of bacteria and yeast/molds. Once a sample has been added to the bottle, the container is incubated as instructed, dark place for 1 to 4 days for bacteria and 3 additional days for yeast & mold. The microbes actually grow in and on the gel. They will show up as red or purplish red dots in the sample bottle indicating a positive result. If you require a quantitative number there is a color chart to compare the results against.

 

Generally any positive growth requires action. Call FQS to consult on possible treatment options.

 

The MicrobMonitor2® can be used to test both the fuel/oil phase and the water phase.

Fuel Sampling Kit

Different tests and/or analysis require samples taken from specific points and levels in a tank or fuel storage system (i.e. dead bottom, middle). To aid in this task, FQS offers a Fuel Sampling Kit equipped with all the necessary supplies needed to properly collect a fuel sample for testing. We can customize the kit to meet your specific sampling needs. Fuel Samplers (formerly known as Bacon Bombs) range from 4 ounces up to 32 ounces. Ensure that you collect the proper amount of fuel and that the sample is drawn from the proper location of the fuel system. Insufficient fuel sample or sample taken from the wrong location may affect the analysis results.

 

This kit, in combination with our field test kits gives you everything you need to pull a tank sample and test for microbial growth at your location. If test results are positive for bugs, Contact FQS to consult on possible treatment options.
