In short, the method according to the present invention, as embodied in the above embodiment, connects the pipe 2 through which petrochemicals such as Cielsol and Oxidol are alternately transferred.
In the method of cleaning with a polypig 3, after the polypig 3 is run at least once in the pipe 2 under pressure such as high pressure gas, nitrogen gas is force-fed into the pipe 2, and then the inside of the pipe is sealed. Nitrogen gas is pumped into the piping, which has been previously cleaned with a polypig, and then the inside of the piping is sealed and vacuum suction is carried out. As a result, the pipe wall and Oxidation of petrochemicals slightly attached to the pipe wall is prevented by the above-mentioned pressure distribution of nitrogen gas, and oxidation of the petrochemicals transferred next is prevented, resulting in a decrease in the quality of the petrochemicals. In addition, most of the petrochemicals adhering to the pipe walls are removed by the vacuum suction described above, and the residual concentration is reduced to the order of ppm. Easier transport of chemicals. Furthermore, since different types of petrochemical products can be transferred alternately through one pipe, there is no need to prepare a plurality of pipes, and there are various effects such as a reduction in the cost of the entire apparatus.
