The MTC-1000 from Algae-X International removes built-up tank sludge and water that accumulates in fuel storage tanks. In the same operation, the MTC-1000 reconditions the fuel to restore fuel quality.

Included in the MTC-1000 is an RCI separator/coalescer that removes free water and particulate contaminants to 5 microns without the need for replaceable filter elements. An LG-X 3000 fuel conditioning unit restores fuel to pristine condition, and an industrial-type polymer fine filter removes emulsified water and particulates to 3 microns.

All MTC-1000 components are installed on a 1/4" aluminum plate mounted on an aluminum dolly with a welded aluminum drip tray. An 18-gpm pump provides capacity to clean tanks up to 5,000 gallons. For full details, contact Algae-X, PO Box 4011, Fort Myers Beach FL 33932.
