Ground-fuel conductivity additives

Pumping and transferring low-conductivity fuels can allow electrostatic charge to accumulate. Conductivity treatment helps charge dissipate through the liquid as part of the site’s static-control program.

Grounding, bonding and operating controls remain necessary. Selection must account for the complete fuel composition, additive package and end-use restrictions.

• Measure untreated and treated fuel conductivity
• Review conductivity retention during storage and handling
• Confirm compatibility with other additives and the dosing system
• Use the selected formulation’s current technical and safety documentation
