Chemical Cleaning Services

At Cleansol we provide expert chemical cleaning services that keep piping, coils, and other equipment clean and in top condition.

Biotech, pharmaceutical, and semiconductor industries, keeping pipelines and other process equipment clean is critical to operations, product quality and efficacy, and efficient production. While existing systems require regular, periodic cleaning for optimal performance, new piping systems do too. They often carry debris, flux, oil residue, welding scale, dust, or other material that compromise operations even before they are put into use.

Key Chemical Cleaning Processes

Thorough cleaning is essential to ensure optimal cleanliness of the system before startup and throughout its useful life. This process should cover all components and surfaces of the system, guaranteeing the complete removal of any residual contaminants, dust, or debris.

Chemical cleaning involves adding chemicals, usually an acidic or basic solution, to the system in order to remove buildup, oils, rust, and other substances from the inner surfaces of pipes and equipment. Additionally, all hoses, fittings, and attachments must be inspected and cleaned, and a technician should flush the interior of the system to eliminate any potential buildup.

Chemical Cleaning Services We Offer

The nature of the built up material as well as what the equipment is made from (i.e., plastic, stainless steel, copper) determines the best chemical solution(s) to use, as well as the duration of the cleaning cycle. Cleaning can also involve detergents, disinfectants, and various mechanical processes.

Hydronics Cleaning

Closed-loop hydronics systems use water or a combination of water and thermal fluids for heat transfer. Cleaning is needed for new and existing systems in order to remove build-up of rust or sediment that can cause clogs that restrict water flow and reduce system performance.

Hydronics cleaning applications:

Mechanical cleaning (e.g., high pressure, brush, scrape, recirculation, etc.).
Chemical cleaning (i.e., acid or alkaline solution).
Detergent cleaning per manufacturers’ specifications.

The Benefits of Starting with a Clean System

Even when new equipment looks clean, there can be hidden contaminants that pose risks, like metal shavings from fabrication or flux, oils, or lubricants from assembly. If these are not removed before operation, they can lead to clogs, transfer of material to downstream equipment and processes, or contribute to long-term corrosion. Cleaning your newly installed system sets a stronger baseline for daily operations and future maintenance and cleanings.
