Problems in the Protection of Fuel Filters from Icing,

Abstract

Investigations into the use of additives for de-icing fuel filters showed that several methods could be used. Fuel can be preheated before entering the filter, but this method has disadvantages and is not recommended. The best system found was to inject de-icing additives instead of adding them to fuel. This proved very economic and ensured that fuel systems operated at low temperatures.
