Key information for commercial fuel users
Fuel Quality Standards
Inconsistent fuel quality from different suppliers can lead to engine problems and downtime. Fuel conditioning ensures consistent quality regardless of supply source, protecting equipment and maintaining performance.
Cost Reduction
Poor fuel quality increases maintenance costs, fuel consumption, and unplanned downtime. Effective conditioning reduces total cost of ownership by improving combustion efficiency and extending equipment life.
Emissions Compliance
Tightening environmental regulations demand cleaner combustion and lower emissions. Fuel conditioning helps commercial operators meet compliance targets while maintaining operational efficiency.
COMMERCIAL FUEL TYPE
Fuel Type - Biofuel
Biofuels are gaining traction in commercial fleets and industrial use, but their variability and sensitivity to contamination can affect performance and reliability. Aderco's conditioners ensure consistent combustion and cleaner operation.
Inconsistent fuel quality
Inconsistent fuel quality due to feedstock variability
Microbial growth
Microbial growth and water contamination
Oxidation and degradation

- Reduces emissions and supports sustainability goals
- Compatible with all commercial engines
COMMERCIAL FUEL TYPE
Fuel Type - MGO (Marine Gas Oil)
MGO is used in commercial marine and industrial applications, but its low lubricity and tendency to form deposits can impact engine reliability and efficiency.
Poor lubricity
Poor lubricity causing wear in pumps and injectors
Carbon deposits
Carbon deposits and injector fouling
Incomplete combustion
Incomplete combustion and increased emissions
Aderco Product Benefits
- Restores lubricity and protects engine components
- Reduces carbon build-up and injector clogging
- Improves combustion and fuel economy
- Minimises maintenance and downtime
- Supports emissions compliance
COMMERCIAL FUEL TYPE
Fuel Type - ULSFO (Ultra Low Sulphur Fuel Oil)
ULSFO meets strict sulphur regulations but often lacks the lubricity and stability needed for reliable commercial operation. Aderco's conditioners restore balance and performance.
Poor lubricity
Poor lubricity leading to component wear
Fuel degradation
Oxidation and fuel degradation
Particulate emissions
Increased particulate emissions
Aderco Product Benefits
- Improves lubricity and protects fuel system parts
- Prevents oxidation and fuel breakdown
- Reduces particulate emissions and carbon deposits
- Enhances fuel efficiency and reliability
- Compatible with emission control technologies
COMMERCIAL FUEL TYPE
Fuel Type - HFO (Heavy Fuel Oil)
HFO is still used in some commercial power and transport operations, but its high viscosity and impurity levels demand robust fuel treatment to avoid engine damage and inefficiency.
Sludge and sediment
High levels of sludge and sediment
Poor atomisation
Poor atomisation and incomplete combustion
Component wear
Increased wear on fuel injectors and pumps
Aderco Product Benefits
- Breaks down sludge and improves fuel flow
- Enhances atomisation and combustion quality
- Reduces carbon build-up and emissions
- Protects engine components from wear
- Improves operational reliability
COMMERCIAL FUEL TYPE
Fuel Type - Diesel
Diesel powers a wide range of commercial vehicles and equipment. However, contamination, poor combustion, and wear can reduce efficiency and increase maintenance costs.
Incomplete combustion
Incomplete combustion and carbon deposits
Water contamination
Water contamination and microbial growth
Low lubricity
Low lubricity causing injector wear
Aderco Product Benefits
- Improves combustion and fuel efficiency
- Prevents microbial growth and water-related issues
- Restores lubricity and protects fuel system parts
- Reduces maintenance and downtime
- Supports cleaner emissions
