Vapor Phase Unit Decontamination

  • Our process is designed for the removal of: light or heavy hydrocarbons, light ends, LEL, VOC, H2S, and for mitigation of pyrophoric materials.
  • By injecting our Entry Safe ™ proprietary chemistry into the steam sources, our process atomizes and carries throughout the system.
  • The surfactant package in the chemistry breaks the surface tension around the metal which allows the chemistry to penetrate and remove the trapped hydrocarbon.
  • If H2S/Pyrophorics are present, Entry Safe™ Ox is used to treat and remove.
  • This decontamination process reduces safety risks, equipment cleaning time and waste effluents. All of these combined efforts give our team (Sage/Customers) the desired outcomes for each task.
  • Analytical labs are conducted throughout the process by pulling samples of the low and high point vents to determine when this process has been completed.
  • Our process 100% saves time and money for our customers.

Liquid Circulation

  • The liquid washing process is requisite when an NTE (not to exceed) temperature is found on equipment.
  • If it is a heavy oil system, a cutter stock (LCO, Diesel) will be used and combined with our Entry Safe™ H.O.P. for asphaltenes fluidization.If the equipment is to be opened, it will require an additional step.
  • The system would then be filled with freshwater and Sage Chemical Cleaning Solutions and Decontamination’s proprietary Entry Safe™ chemistry.
  •  Following, the component will be heated to the obligatory temperature and circulated.
  • This process fluidizes and/or dissolves hydrogen-deficient hydrocarbon deposits from the equipment. Once fluidization is completed, maintenance vendors are able to open the equipment immediately  for repairs.
  • If pyrophoric material is present, Sage Chemical Cleaning Solutions and Decontamination would utilize oxidizer to render inert H2S and/or pyrophoric materials.
  • A final flush with fresh water would then be required before the job is completed.

3-D Vessel Cleaning Nozzles

  • When applicable, our specialty vessel cleaning nozzles are inserted into the target equipment.
  • The 3-D vessel cleaning nozzles are specifically designed to minimize waste effluent and decrease cleaning time/costs for drums, vessels, and tanks.
  • Cleaning diameters from 10ft to 250ft
