Why Aviation Fuel Contamination Demands Advanced Filtration Beyond Conventional Methods

Conventional filtration systems are failing to protect fuel systems from the most damaging contaminants.

Sub-Micron Particles Bypass Filters

Traditional filters only target particles ≥4 microns—yet the most damaging contamination is below 1 micron.

Worm-Holing & Channeling

Filter media suffers from worm-holing, channeling, and early saturation, allowing contamination through.

High Operational Expenditure (OPEX)

Filter replacement costs, labor demands, safety risks, and disposal expenses drain operational budgets.

Pipeline Contamination Loads

Pipeline and storage tank corrosion and erosion introduce massive, unpredictable contamination loads.

Water Contamination

Water + metal particulates enable destructive microbial growth and fuel system corrosion.

Microbial Growth Risk

Buildup in tanks and fuel systems increases emissions, premature wear, and safety hazards.

Nashville International Airport

One of America’s fastest-growing airports partnered with BPS to solve persistent pipeline contamination challenges and dramatically improve fuel system performance.

"The separator is working well & Menzies Aviation has cut down on filter changes dramatically."

How It Works

A straightforward three-step process that delivers exceptional results without complex operations or frequent maintenance.

01

Contaminated Fuel Enters

Pipeline corrosion, tank scale, and wear particles flow into the magnetic separator.

02

Magnetic Separation Captures

High-intensity magnetic arrays remove ferrous & non-ferrous particulate to <1 micron.

03

Clean Fuel Exits

Fuel moves downstream cleaner than ISO/NAS requirements, enabling cleaner burn, lower consumption and reduced emissions, while ensuring protection of the entire fuel system.

Proven Performance

Real-world results that demonstrate our commitment to excellence in fuel contamination control.

Proven at Major Airports

BPS Magnetic Separator successfully improved jet-fuel cleanliness at Nashville International Airport, reducing contamination and improving downstream quality.

Sub-Micron Contaminant Removal

Lab-verified removal of iron-oxide particulate from 500 µm

99%+ Contaminant Capture Efficiency

Patented magnetic-separator design consistently removes ferrous and non-ferrous Black Powder with 99%+ efficiency. Airport operators reported dramatically fewer filter changes, cutting costs and improving operational uptime.

25+ Year Operating Life

Engineered for longevity with a 25+ year service life.
