Abstract

917,481. Cleaning tanks. INTERNATIONAL GROOM CO. G.m.b.H. Feb. 23, 1959 [Feb. 27, 1958], No. 6194/59. Class 138 (1). [Also in Group XXVIII] Ships' and other storage tanks, pipe lines, heat-exchangers, &c. are cleaned by washing with an aqueous cleansing liquid, and then permitting the mixture of cleansing liquid and removed oily deposits to stratify in the presence of a surface-active agent comprising a poly. glycol eblar such as polypropylene polyethylene oxide or a condensation product of stearyl or octadecyl alcohol and ethylene oxide. Preferably the cleansing liquid should contain an electrolyte or electrolyte mixture selected from sodium phosphates, sulphate, nitrate, chloride, carbonate, and metasilicate. The washing may be effected by projecting the cleansing liquid by nozzles on to the surfaces to be cleaned and returning the used liquid to a separating vessel from which the stratified oils are removed and the cleansing liquid used again. Preferably, the cleansing liquid and the mixture returned to the separating vessel are heated, and the stratified layers in the separating vessel may also be heated if desired. Specification 696,631 is referred to.
