| Proven Additives for Today’s “Green Fuels”The focus on biofuels and reduced emissions by the Environmental Protection Agency is a well-intended effort to reduce our dependency on foreign oil imports and improve the quality of the air we breathe. However, many of these regulations have a negative impact on the gasoline and diesel engines that power our boats and recreational vehicles. As we all know, the battle between the EPA and the marine industry has held a primary focus on the enrichment of gasoline with 10% ethanol. But many other regulations such as ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel, tier rated diesel engines and biodiesel blends introduce additional issues to marine diesel engines. Biobor Fuel Additives manufactures two diesel additives for consumers proven to negate these issues and improve the performance and protection of their diesel vessels.Since 2012, 100% of the diesel fuel sold for marine use is ultra-low sulfur, or contains 15ppm sulfur content. What does this mean to diesel vessel owners? The process used to reduce these levels from the previous 500ppm sulfur content strips away much of the necessary lubrication properties essential for protecting injectors and fuel pumps. Although refineries may add the necessary lubricity additive to reach ASTM minimums, much of the fuel found at marine fueling locations may be far below the levels recommended by OEM diesel engine manufacturers. “The reduction of sulfur levels does help reduce harmful emissions, but boaters are realizing shortened injector life and increased wear on fuel pumps,” said Blake Rampy, Sales Manager of Hammonds Fuel Additives. “Both Biobor JF and Biobor MD provide sufficient lubricity to meet or exceed OEM lubricity specs and increase the life of vital injection components.”Increased thermal and oxidative breakdown properties of ULSD also lead to marine diesel engines seeing increased deposit formation and fuel filter plugging. Compounding this issue, many newer engines utilize high pressure common rail (HPCR) injection systems that operate under extreme pressures and temperatures. Deposit and particulate formation are widely recognized as a catalyst for reduced engine efficiency, performance and increased emissions. Biobor MD contains a detergent proven in both HPCR and mechanical engines to clean up, and keep injectors and valves clean resulting in maximum engine power restoration and reduced emissions. Additionally, stabilizers in Biobor MD prevent the breakdown of diesel fuels over storage periods while reducing injector coking and increasing the life of fuel filters.
Biodiesel blends as well as ULSD are also more susceptible to biological growth. This is a widely recognized issue in the warm, humid marine environment as moisture accumulation is a constant battle. “ULSD and biofuels have the tendency to accumulate much larger quantities of water, creating a breeding ground for bacteria and fungi growth,” said Rampy. “Plugged fuel filters are typically recognized as the first sign of contamination, but the highly corrosive by-product of microbes may be unseen.” With consistent use of Biobor JF, an OEM approved and recognized biocide, diesel fuel may be safely treated year-round and microbial growth avoided altogether. “The key for boaters using today’s new diesel blends is a proactive, preventative approach rather than a reactive treatment. Unique to Biobor JF, numerous major diesel engine manufacturers name Biobor JF specifically in their operation manuals, providing boaters with the confidence they are using an OEM recommended biocide to prevent bug issues. In fact, Biobor JF has been used for over 50 years in commercial aviation jet fuel to prevent the same microbes that grow in diesel.” Rampy adds.
Biobor products are widely distributed in the marine market and continue be the one of the most widely used diesel additives for refineries, terminals, railroads and boater alike in EPA mandated fuels. Additional benefits include water control, corrosion inhibitors and cetane boosters.
While the newer, “green” fuels that we all must use in our gasoline and diesel powered vessels may ultimately be for the best, we must be aware of the issues that follow. Reduced emissions and a reduction in US dependency on foreign oil are positive strides for our future; however, a quality, proven additive such as Biobor MD and JF is necessary for boaters to protect their investments and fully enjoy their time on the water. |
