grotamar®71 Biocide Treatment

grotamar®71 is fully soluble in fuel and partitions preferentially to water making it highly effective in fuel systems. grotamar®71 is a concentrated form of the active ingredient, making it ideal for blending purposes and use at refineries and in the fuel supply chain by experienced handlers. It contains no nitrate, nitrosating agents or organically bound chlorine (has no effect on the AOX value) and is sulphur free.

 

grotamar®82 Biocide Treatment

grotamar®82, is based on the same active ingredient as grotamar®71 but is designed to be easily dispersed (requiring no mixing) and is formulated to stabilise fuel, having anti-oxidative and anti-corrosive properties.  This makes grotamar®82 an ideal choice for end users of fuel and is suitable for fuel containing biodiesel content up to 20%.   grotamar®82 is suitable for fuel producers to use in B100 affording excellent fuel preservation properties.

Its self-dispersing nature makes it ideal for addition to end-user fuel tanks, including ships, superyachts, commercial vehicles, power generation, and depots.

grotamar®82 is also suitable for use in modern diesel engines with biodiesel content and low-sulphur diesels. It offers excellent long-term protection against microbial contamination for fuel tanks, pipes and engines.
