Dose

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:

  •   Non-drying products
  •   Semi-drying products
  •   Drying products
  •   Fatty acids Non Drying Products

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.

Note:Eyewash facilities require at workplace The product causes corrosion on skin and mucous membranes Pl. Note that In case of discharge of acidic or alkaline products into the sewerage system the pH must be in the range of 6-10 since higher or lower pH values may damage the sewerage system or impair biological dosage treatment plants. So that for maintaining pH we have to add acidic / basic medium neutaliser . For example if pH is less than 6 basic neutraliser is required and if pH is more than 10 acidic nature neutraliser is required. For details of any guideline pl.
