10% for 10 minutes is what we used in the biosafety business. There may be
other products such as quaternary solutions that might also work at lower
rates.
10% of a biocidal bleach could be 15 jugs - could get expensive. There
Aren't their products that prevent biosludge in Diesel fuel? We used to get
a jug of something to pour in the 1400 gallon generator tank to keep it
from growing...Would that work to eliminate the problem?
I found this link to a video that may be a sales pitch, but illustrates one
such product to clean the tank.
