Well balanced alkaline cleaner. It is free hydrocarbon solvents. Gentle & suitable for tank cleaning operation. A very strong alkaline cleaner, which can be used to soften up / remove baked on drying oils and also used after animal and vegetable oils, fish oils, tall oils, tung oil etc. It is a low toxic product with an exceptional solvency power on soil & oily matter.It is free from Hydrocarbon solvents , Biodegradable and minimizes the extreme hazards to personnel in handling materials.
This is a high-performance, concentrated cleaning solution developed for the effective removal of a wide range of organic and hydrocarbon-based residues. It is suitable for cleaning vegetable and animal oils, fats, fuel oils, lubricating oils, coal residues, and related deposits from cargo tanks, storage tanks, and associated systems.
The formulation is also highly effective for removing various coal cargo residues from ship cargo holds, as well as carbonaceous and exhaust-related deposits commonly found in vessel garage areas, ceilings, walls, roof structures, and hull surfaces.
Its powerful concentrated formulation provides rapid penetration and efficient soil removal, helping restore heavily contaminated surfaces with minimal cleaning effort. In addition to its cleaning action, the product helps neutralize and eliminate persistent unpleasant odors, leaving treated areas cleaner and fresher.
It can be used as a general purpose cleaner to remove oil and grease deposits. First of all flush the system with cold water to prevent evaporation rates and polymerization then the most economical method of using RXSOL-22-2015-220 is by direct injection followed by recirculation washing, using tank cleaning machines. Spraying Method - Using LAC as delivered in drums, spray onto areas where residue remains following rough washing leave for 10-45 minutes (but do not allow to dry), then butterworth at maximum pressure and warm water 60oC for at least 3 hours, checking that there is no foam remaining in the final stages. Inspects tanks(s) and if desired result has been achieved fresh water rinse and dry.
** Make sure to take all safety precautions are followed when handling / spraying RXSOL-22-2015-220
Injection Method – not applicable.
Vegetable and Animal Oils (Cleaning Procedure)
For effective cleaning of animal and vegetable oils the first cleaning step is of utmost importance. Vegetable oils are divided in:
1. Pre-Cleaning: Remove all loose cargo residues, dust and solid debris from the cargo hold by sweeping, scraping or high-pressure water washing. Where possible, pre-rinse the surfaces with fresh water to remove loose contamination.
2. Preparation of Cleaning Solution: Dilute the Liquid Alkaline Cleaner with fresh water according to the degree of contamination. A 5-10% solution is suitable for general cleaning. For heavy oil, grease or stubborn cargo residues, the concentration may be increased as required after checking surface compatibility.
3. Application: Apply the prepared solution evenly over the contaminated surfaces using a low-pressure spray, foam applicator, chemical injection system or suitable cleaning equipment. Begin application from the lower sections and work upwards to ensure uniform coverage and reduce streaking.
4. Contact Time: Allow the cleaning solution to remain on the surface for approximately 15-30 minutes. For heavy contamination, a longer contact time may be required. Do not allow the cleaning solution to dry on the surface.
5. Agitation: Where deposits are particularly stubborn, agitate the treated areas using suitable brushes, deck scrubbers or high-pressure washing equipment to improve penetration and removal.
6. Final Washing: Wash the treated surfaces thoroughly with high-pressure fresh water, preferably working systematically from the upper sections downward. Continue rinsing until all loosened residues, cleaner and foam have been completely removed.
7. Inspection & Repeat Treatment: Inspect the hold after rinsing. Areas with remaining contamination may be spot-treated with a stronger solution, allowed suitable contact time and washed again.
Important: Before full-scale application, test the product on a small area to confirm compatibility with hold coatings, aluminium, galvanized surfaces and other sensitive materials. Collect and dispose of cleaning effluent in accordance with applicable vessel, port and environmental requirements.
