Biobor JF Fuel Additive 5 Gl

Biobor JF Fuel Additive 5 Gallon is a bulk-size fuel biocide for treating larger quantities of aviation turbine fuel and other applicable hydrocarbon fuels. Biobor JF is formulated to kill and prevent microbial growth that can contribute to fuel contamination, filter plugging and microbial-influenced corrosion.

The 5-gallon container is suited for aircraft operators, maintenance organizations, fuel-storage operations and other users who regularly treat larger fuel volumes. Biobor JF uses dual-phase chemistry that distributes between fuel and water phases and meets MIL-S-53021A.

Biobor JF 5 Gallon Specifications

Biobor JF for Larger Fuel Volumes

The 5-gallon Biobor JF container provides a larger quantity of fuel biocide for operations that routinely treat substantial fuel volumes. It can be used as part of a fuel-quality management program where microbial contamination is monitored and treated according to established procedures.

Biobor JF is designed to address microbial contamination caused by bacteria and fungi. Its dual-phase formulation allows the biocide to distribute between the fuel and water phases, where microbial growth commonly occurs.

Fuel Microbial Contamination and Treatment

Water contamination in fuel systems can create conditions that support microbial growth. Microbial contamination may result in biomass accumulation, filter plugging and corrosion of fuel-system components. Fuel testing can help identify contamination so that appropriate treatment can be selected.

BAC carries several products for fuel microbial monitoring and treatment, including the Hum-Bug Bug Detector Kit and ECHA Microbmonitor 2 Microbial Fuel Test Kit. These products can be used as part of a test-and-treat approach to fuel quality management.

Biobor JF Treatment Rates

The amount of Biobor JF required depends on the quantity of fuel being treated and the treatment objective. The manufacturer provides separate preventative and curative treatment rates. Because dosage is application-specific, use the manufacturer's current technical data sheet and product instructions to determine the correct quantity for the fuel being treated.

Do not determine treatment quantity from container size alone. Refer to the manufacturer’s current TDS and SDS for dosage, application, handling and safety requirements.
