Valve Treat
Valve Treat is a liquid compound that contains chemicals proven effective in reducing harmful effects of vanadium oxides and sodium salts in diesel engines. Adding Valve Treat to bunker fuel forms a complex that de-activates the vanadium and sodium common in heavy bunker fuels. The melting point of vanadium pentoxide is 675°C and sodium sulfate is 880°C. When Valve Treat is employed, the complexes formed with vanadium and sodium sulfate by the agents in Valve Treat melt at about 1100°C.
Valve Treat is used both in steam and motor vessels burning heavy fuel oils to improve combustion efficiency, reduce corrosion, disperse sludge and separate water. It is primarily formulated for use in diesel engines to prevent valves failure.
