DieselCare AS is using Aquafighter® technology to revolutionize fuel tank cleaning and maintenance

Fuel Stations are saving real money and significant time by recovering “waste fuel” and keeping their tanks water-free and their diesel clean at all times.

Tank cleaning has been done the same way for the last 40 years. Often tank cleaning is done half-way, by operator or equipment error. Other times it is leaving behind traces of bacteria that immediately begin growing when the cleaning stops. And never was “gray diesel” waste fuel able to be recovered so easily and efficiently.

DieselCare AS Utilizing Aquafighter®

As a diesel professional for the last half century; Per Jahnsrud, CEO of DieselCare AS, was always working to uncover new solutions for age old challenges that the combination of nature and diesel fuel present daily. The one challenge that “stuck in his craw” was how to manage bound water in diesel fuel. While there are many solutions for removing free water, most notably draining, the bound water that mixes in with the fuel was not so easy. After years of experimenting, he created the Aquafighter® technology that will remove this bound water without affecting the diesel, but makes diesel fuel perfectly pure from top to bottom.

With bio-diesel becoming more prevalent, bound water is making water more difficult for water separators and other traditional methods to remove the water that damages engines, fuel systems, fuel pumps and fuel tanks. Over the last 2.5 years Mr. Jahnsrud has applied Aquafighter into tank cleaning to completely eliminate bound water and free water down to 60ppm which has allowed him to polish diesel fuel better and simpler than polishing trucks and to keep tanks free of water at all times where other solutions just simply cannot.

Polishing Diesel Fuel: The First of Two Utilizations

Since polishing diesel fuel became possible it has required a big machine, lots of energy, and lots of paying money to people. DieselCare AS has been polishing diesel to a much higher standard by using Aquafighter® with intelligent tank solutions.

Over the last couple of years, DieselCare has taken 1,700,000 liters of diesel that would otherwise be disposed and returned to the fuel station 1,500,000 liters of clean, on-spec, retail diesel. Normally the fuel station would pay more than €1,000,000 to just dispose of this “waste fuel.” Now, with game-changing Aquafighter® technology, DieselCare is transforming a €1,000,000 loss for the fuel company into a €1,500,000 gain. Add this to the environmental advantage of significantly reducing waste and disposal, and this proves a solution that every fuel station in every country can profit from immediately.

Cleaning Tanks to “New” Condition

Cleaning tanks is a relative term. Some are cleaned well, others are cleaned not so well, others are cleaned enough to make the station owner think they are clean. DieselCare AS uses a “3-Improvement Process” to clean the tank thoroughly, clear the suction lines and fill the tank sediment-free; then ultimately utilizing Aquafighter® to keep the tank free of water and the fuel in perfect condition in perpetuity.

By doing a thorough cleaning of the tank, DieselCare assures that all dirt, bacteria and grime has been eliminated from the tank so that the tank is in as close to new condition as possible. By using their proprietary process of clearing the suction lines, DieselCare removes a common source of bacteria that is almost never solved in the life of fuel tank systems. And by using 1 micron filling filters, dirt and sediments can very simply be prevented from entering the tank during the filling process. DieselCare AS has perfected tank cleaning and offers training for other companies to learn these methods and to use Aquafighter to maximum effect.

Keep Tanks Water-Free Always

In the same way that Aquafighter® removes water from diesel fuel for polishing, is the same way that Aquafighter® keeps water out of diesel fuel in the tanks at all times. In fact, it is literally polishing the fuel in the tank at all times. As the fuel passes through the Aquafighter® filter, the molecules of bound water are separated from the diesel molecules allowing the diesel to move to the top of the tank as clear and bright fuel until the entire tank has been made water-free. Once the Aquafighter® has done this initial whole-tank polishing, it will remain in the tank and continue to perform this process as any new water is introduced into the tank.

Combining effective with simple is a fuel station owner’s dream. Aquafighter is a real solution that solves these burdensome challenges and allows fuel station owners to eliminate almost all of the problems caused by water in the fuel tank and ultimately the fuel and pump system. All it takes is contacting DieselCare AS or any of the growing number of Aquafighter® distributors around the world.

Coming Very Soon: Aquafighter® For Fuel Depots

DieselCare AS is currently in the final stages of development on Aquafighter® Depot for fuel depots, terminals and other super large tanks. Please contact DieselCare/Aquafighter directly to learn more.
