Biobor® JF Benefits: Biobor® JF is a liquid fuel additive that combats fungus and other microtive life in hydrocarbon fuels, such as diesel and jet fuels, but is also effective in light oils and transmission fluid. Biobor® JF eliminates growth of harmful slime-producing fungi that clog filters and pipelines, attack rubber fuel system components and whose waste products aid in the corrosion of metal surfaces. Biobor® JF is simple to use and harmless to the wide variety of fuel system parts, top coatings, sealants and elastomeric materials tested. It does not adversely affect fuel performance in engines. Biobor® JF is an effective microbiocide because of its equilibrium solubility in both fuel and water under conditions of fuel storage. Applications: Biobor® JF is used by a large number of aircraft manufacturers, airlines, marines, trucking fleets, railroads, bulk storage terminals, fuel suppliers and by other users of hydrocarbon fuels and oils exposed to the possibility of contamination by fungus and bacteria. Treatment Procedures: If a system is badly contaminated, drain water bottoms. Water bottoms in storage tanks should be kept to a minimum. Good housekeeping is important in treating slime problems, but it is not a cure. Biobor® JF is used at 270 ppm in fuel to effect sterilization, and subsequently at 135 ppm to maintain fungus-free fuel. Ideally, Biobor® JF should be metered. However, in the absence of metering equipment, Biobor® JF may be manually batch-blended. If batch-blended, as in tank trucks or small aircraft wing tanks, Biobor® JF should be introduced while the tank is being filled and after the tank is approximately ½ full. This will ensure faster and more complete dispersion. Container Sizes and Dosage Rates: Biobor® JF is available in 8 oz, and 16 oz. Easy Squeeze containers, designed to dispense the exact measure every time, along with one quart cans, 5 gal. pails and 55 gal. drums. To calculate the number of ounces of Biobor® JF needed for diesel fuel only multiply YOUR gallons of fuel x 7.08 and then x .004 for initial treatment then x .002 for maintenance treatments. Example 100 gallons of fuel x 7.08=708 x .004=2.83 ounces are needed for initial shock treatment then half of that there after to maintain the tank. Storage and Handling: All Biobor® JF containers must be kept closed from the atmosphere. Protect Biobor® JF from any water contamination.

In many cases the contamination aka "diesel sludge" settles to the bottom of a fuel tank. Diesel sludge is then picked up and clogs filters when the vehicle is fueled or when the vessel is in rough seas in a marine application. Once the sludge mass is off the bottom of the tank and in suspension, it is a problem. This problem will not go away without the correct plan of attack.
