All fuels employed in the Aviation industry require the highest possible cleanliness value that allows the cleanest burn resulting in the least amount of solids emissions possible. Clean fuel also reduces premature wear of fuel system components.
“Methane is an extremely potent greenhouse gas and is about 80 times more potent than carbon dioxide if it escapes into the atmosphere before being burned. Studies show that natural gas power plants could be worse for climate change than coal plants if their leakage rate rises above 4%.”
Black Powder Solutions Inc. (BPS) designs and manufactures its patented Magnetic Separators to remove Black Powder™ contamination from liquids and gas, refined products, process fluids, water and other applications in all pipeline and facility applications to 95%+ efficiency. BPS also manufactures single magnetic element sample/test stations, where one/some of the following are required: Identifying the …
September 2019 Black Powder Contamination In the last paper, titled “Introduction to Black Powder Contamination”, the formation of Black PowderTM (Black Powder) contamination was discussed along with a general discussion about its facility impacts. It was discussed that Black Powder contamination is a highly prevalent form of contamination that exists in various degrees in most, …
May 2020 This paper reviews many of the challenges that operators are faced with when using conventional surface and depth media filtration systems to remove particulate. It then introduces a cost effective and economic alternative – Magnetic Separation.*Cyclones are not discussed here because they are typically inefficient below 30 microns, and ineffective below 10 microns. …

Slash Filtration Costs and Improve Reliability December 2019 What is Black Powder contamination? Black Powder particulate contamination in gas and liquid hydrocarbons has significant financial and operating impacts on pipelines, facilities and product quality. It is present in all hydrocarbon systems, consists of ferrous and non ferrous particulate, typically with a primary iron sulfide and/or …
7 Ways Magnetic Separation is Slashing Filtration Costs and Improving Reliability Read More »
August 2019 “Black PowderTM” (Black Powder) contamination is a widely used term for a highly pervasive particulate contamination found in all hydrocarbon facilities and pipelines, water systems, petrochemical powders, and other fluid and gas systems. It has many other names, such as black dirt, sludge, shoe polish, brown dirt, rouge and black sand, among others. …
