Chemical Cleaning

Promanex use chemical cleaning processes to improve the efficiency and extend the working life of equipment, plant and pipework. Our chemical cleaning service provides customers with a safe, economic and effective solution for both the specialised and routine cleaning which minimises disruption during pre-commissioning and routine maintenance of plant and equipment.

We have a wealth of experience in chemical cleaning and the removal of materials such as:
• Oils;
• Corrosion products;
• Water hardness deposits;
• Biofouling.

This can be carried out using a variety of applications in a diverse array of plant and equipment that include:
• Industrial steam raising plant and auxiliaries;
• Industrial process equipment;
• Lubrication systems;
• Heat exchangers;
• Pipelines;
• Cooling systems;
• Vessels.

Our experienced team of technicians supported by specialist engineers and chemists, will plan and carry out the necessary cleaning requirements within scope, budget and timeframes.

Chemical cleaning will optimise your plant operating efficiency and prolong its life expectancy. It will help reduce costly repairs and make plant maintenance easier and safer by minimising risk to site personnel through the elimination of potential environment hazards through the removal of unwanted deposition caused by calcareous deposits and corrosion from internal waterways in plant, systems, pipe runs and equipment.

Above all our chemical cleaning service will directly enable your organisation making substantial bottom line savings and efficiencies through;
• Reduced down time;
• Reduces fuel costs;
• Reduces repair costs.

Acidic Foam Procedure

We offer a sophisticated foam treatment application which is fast becoming the industry benchmark for superior cleaning results, for the chemical cleaning of cooling tower packs in situ. For example, Promanex pack-clean is designed to clean by dissolving scale deposits and disinfecting cooling tower surfaces. On lightly scaled and fouled systems it is used as a replacement for packing removal and as a method for lengthening pack lifecycle.

Upon the cooling tower inspection which includes an endoscopic survey, our qualified team of cleaning technicians will utilise the most suitable product based on deposit analysis, materials of construction of the unit and environment.

Benefits of acidic foam procedures over traditional products:
• Strong clinging foam to give optimum contact time;
• Acidic foam cleaner for periodic cleaning applications - effective scale remover;
• Inorganic acid with high foaming agents ensures fast removal of scale and other deposits from the cooling pack.

High Pressure Water Jetting

If chemical cleaning or biocide washing is not possible due to time, application or access constraints, Promanex are available to offer a specialist high pressure water jetting service from 172 up to 2,757 bar. All Promanex jetting operatives are trained to the highest legislative standards and hold uniquely numbered Water Jetting Society training and relevant CSCS training cards in water jetting.
