McMullen Associates, Inc., (JJMA), one of the largest firms of naval architects, marine engi- neers and transportation consult- ants in the U.S., has appointed David F.

ETS Introduces Test Strip For Fuel Contamination Environmental Test Systems, Inc., of Elkhart, Ind., has introduced a new, 75-cent test strip that can identify seawater contamination in fuel tanks. The test strip was developed by Environmental Test Systems at the request of the U.S. Navy. The Navy strips can reportedly identify water contamination in fuel tanks as fresh, brackish or seawater in less than seven minutes. The product is now being used as a standard component of fuel tank contamination testing kits aboard 200 ships in the U.S. Atlantic Fleet. The strips are said to have applica- tions for all ships carrying jet or diesel fuel. The test strips require no techni- cal training or special equipment. The user places a strip in a water sample and waits as fluid rises up the strip by a capillary action and a white column appears in the center of the strip. When a signal stripe indicates the test is completed, the user notes the color-coded region on the strip where the white column ends. In addition to testing for the presence of seawater in fuel oil, the test strips also provide a permanent record of the test.
