Since its introduction, the Fuel Polishing System (FPS) has proved to be a reliable, electro-mechanical solution to the problems related to storing diesel. When compared to the cost of managing the stored diesel, the FPS is a highly effective solution. In comparison with the cost of performing the correct maintenance as specified by best industry practices, the FPS is a valuable and efficient cleaning system for enhancing the fuel management procedures and protocols. The FPS establishes a system for filtering the contents of the main storage tank through a re-circulating filter system. This can be made automatic and will reduce the risks during operation by removing sediment/gums and will maintain the stored fuel in optimum condition.
