Antioxidants: Antioxidants are essential in preventing oxidation, which can lead to the formation of gums and varnishes that clog fuel systems and reduce engine efficiency. By incorporating antioxidants, fuel stability is significantly enhanced, ensuring a longer shelf life and better performance.
Biocides: Biocides are vital for controlling microbial growth in diesel fuels, which can cause fuel degradation and clog filters. These additives help maintain fuel quality and prevent costly engine maintenance issues.
Cetane number improvers: Cetane number improvers are used to enhance the combustion quality of diesel fuel, leading to improved engine startability, reduced emissions, and smoother operation. Higher cetane numbers result in more efficient fuel combustion, translating to better fuel economy.
Cold flow improvers: Cold flow improvers are critical for preventing fuel gelling in low temperatures, ensuring reliable engine operation even in harsh winter conditions. These additives modify wax crystals in the fuel, keeping it fluid and pumpable.
Corrosion inhibitors: Corrosion inhibitors protect engine and fuel system components from corrosive damage caused by water and acidic compounds in the fuel. This prolongs the lifespan of equipment and reduces maintenance costs.
Dyers and markers: Dyers and markers are employed for fuel differentiation, regulatory compliance, and leak detection. They ensure the correct use of different fuel types and help in identifying and preventing fuel adulteration.
Fuel oil additives: Fuel oil additives improve the overall quality of fuel oils, enhancing combustion efficiency and reducing emissions. They play a crucial role in maintaining engine cleanliness and performance.
Fuel system icing inhibitors: Fuel system icing inhibitors prevent the formation of ice in fuel lines and tanks, ensuring smooth engine operation in cold weather. These additives are especially important for aviation and marine applications.
Fuel treatment additives: Fuel treatment additives offer multifunctional benefits, including cleaning fuel systems, improving combustion, and reducing emissions. Products like EcoClean® and Dynamico™ exemplify these all-in-one solutions.
Lubricity improvers: Lubricity improvers enhance the lubricating properties of diesel fuel, protecting fuel pumps and injectors from wear and tear, thus extending their service life.
Metal deactivators: Metal deactivators prevent metal ions in fuel from catalyzing oxidation reactions, thereby preserving fuel stability and quality.
Static dissipator additives: Static dissipator additives reduce the risk of static electricity buildup during fuel handling, ensuring safety and preventing potential explosions.

Product and customer insights
CHALLENGE A 40-hectare raw water storage dam had persistent issues with blue-green algae (BGA) blooms, leading to taste and odor problems. Despite the presence of an aeration system to address water stratification and mixing, BGA counts remained seasonally high, particularly in summer and autumn. Upgraded aeration in 2018 did not resolve the issue, leaving the […]
The International Maritime Organisation (IMO) regulation, known as IMO 2020 was the the largest change in regulation relating to marine fuels impacting 75% of the fuel used by the shipping industry.
CHALLENGE A power plant relying on ultrafiltration (UF) and reverse osmosis (RO) faced a critical operational challenge. A wastewater treatment upset severely fouled the UF system, drastically reducing water production. Despite multiple cleaning attempts with sodium hypochlorite and citric acid, transmembrane pressure (TMP) remained high, and flux showed no improvement. The plant’s inability to meet […]
Keeping drilling costs low using Redi-Guard™ High Performance, an ecologically friendly drilling fluid technology with revolutionary rheological and shale encapsulation properties
CHALLENGE A municipal water reuse plant processing 8 million gallons per day (MGD) experienced severe fouling and scaling issues, including calcium phosphate and silica deposits. With steep feed pressure increases and differential pressures in both stages, the plant required frequent cleanings every 4 to 6 weeks, amounting to 32 cleanings annually. Each cleaning cycle resulted […]
The plant was experiencing weekly shutdowns for fiber clean up (~ 3 kg bags of matted slurry is cleaned per week). The shut downs were costly as they reduce plant availability for production.
CHALLENGE A municipal reverse osmosis (RO) plant on Florida’s west coast, with a 20 MGD capacity, faced high operational costs due to its reliance on 93% sulfuric acid for pH adjustment. The plant used a combination of a brackish water reverse osmosis (BWRO) membranes and fiberglass-wrapped membranes across 10 trains, each operating at 75% recovery. […]
CHALLENGE A gold processing plant in New Zealand sought to improve gold recovery efficiency while addressing high Total Organic Carbon (TOC) levels. Elevated TOC increased the Preg-Robbing Factor (PRF), reducing the plant’s ability to efficiently recover gold during the Carbon-In-Leach (CIL) process. The traditional use of kerosene as a carbon blanking agent offered limited efficacy, […]
CHALLENGE A municipal reverse osmosis (RO) plant, with a capacity of 2 million gallons per day (MGD), faced frequent system cleanings, every 2-4 months, due to rising feed pressure. The plant, which sources water from brackish wells and uses Toray TMG-20D-400 membranes in a (16×7) -> (8×7) train configuration, was operating at 78% recovery. Despite […]
Research indicates that Sea Buckthorn may be able to strengthen the immune system. One in vitro study focused on the possible immunomodulatory properties of Sea Buckthorn.
AWC A-110 effectively inhibited scale at a dosage of 3.5 ppm and an operating pH of 6.9. This increase in operating pH reduced the district’s annual acid consumption by ~$350K per year based on their current production.
MCI® -2020 V/O and ChemMaster’s Colorsil were chosen to repair and protect the walls based on their 20 year warranties and the fact that together they could fulfill the other specified repair design requirements.
Despite numerous cleanings, the productivity of the Reverse Osmosis plant would not recover from severe membrane fouling. The membrane autopsy revealed that the ferric hydroxide was seeding
silica polymerization and that even while the ferric hydroxide was removed, the silica scaling was continuing to grow.
The East Hokkaido region is known to have the highest volume of potato product in Japan. Unfortunately, a potato farmer in the area was experiencing a high rate of potato scab infection in his agricultural field.
