BIOCONTROL MAR-71
Fuel Oil Biocide
Product description
Biocontrol Mar-71 is a specially designed liquid biocide
against micro organisms contaminating fuel storage tanks
and systems. These micro organisms can cause
corrosion, clog filters and nozzles and degrade the
properties of the fuel. Biocontrol Mar-71 is effective in
layers between water and oil where the bacteria growth
is most active.
Directions for Use
Biocontrol Mar-71 is self dispersing and can therefore be
added directly to the fuel tank. The preventive dose rate is
0.3 Itr per ton of fuel but in strongly infected fuels the
dose rate should be 3 Itr per ton of fuel.
In case of lube oil contamination, see product data sheet
for MAR 71.
