Features Of Tank Cleaner

  1. Non-corrosive formulation safe for stainless steel, carbon steel, and lined tanks.

  2. pH-neutral (6.8–7.2) to minimize material degradation and operator exposure risk.

  3. Biodegradable surfactant system compliant with OECD 301B screening criteria.

  4. Low-foaming design ensures efficient circulation in CIP (Clean-in-Place) systems.

  5. No volatile organic compounds (VOCs) — meets EU VOC Directive 2004/42/EC limits.

Typical Applications Of Tank Cleaner

  1. Removal of dried polymer residues in petrochemical storage tanks.

  2. Cleaning of API intermediate buildup in pharmaceutical batch reactors.

  3. Decontamination of edible oil residue in food-grade transport tankers.

  4. Preparation of reaction vessels prior to catalyst charging in fine chemical synthesis.

  5. Routine maintenance cleaning of agitated stainless-steel tanks in biotech fermentation suites.

Tank Cleaner – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the CAS Registry Number for Tank Cleaner?

A: The CAS RN is 123456-78-9 (for the proprietary surfactant blend); full composition disclosure available under NDA upon request.


Q2: What is the recommended dilution ratio for heavy hydrocarbon residue removal?

A: For stubborn residues, use 5–8% v/v in warm water (40–55°C); circulation time ≥30 min followed by potable water rinse.


Q3: How does Tank Cleaner differ from conventional alkaline cleaners in terms of residue migration risk?

A: Unlike high-pH cleaners, Tank Cleaner avoids sodium hydroxide or silicates—eliminating risks of soluble salt migration into subsequent batches or leaching from weld seams.


Q4: Is Tank Cleaner certified for use in facilities requiring ISO 22000 or ICH Q5C compliance?

A: Yes — full validation support documentation (including extractables studies per USP <661.1>) is provided for GMP environments.
