CHEMICAL DECONTAMINATION SERVICES

Kanooz offers comprehensive process decontamination services such as degasing and cleaning of hydrocarbon process systems that provide the plant a hydrocarbon free system to carry out maintenance works including hot works soon after the decommissioning of the plant and to reduce overall downtime. Kanooz is in technical alliance with Clean Concepts Inc. USA, an agency manufactures proprietary chemicals and a renowned decontamination service provider.

Clean Concepts decontamination chemistries are used worldwide by refiners such as Chevron, Shell, BP, Conoco Philips, Total, Sabic, Aramco etc.

GENERAL CLEANING REQUIREMENTS

DEGASSING

Degassing is treating the void volume, the empty space in a vessel, to remove volatile contaminants such as H2s and benzene to allow personal entry into the vessel.
Degassing follows the removal of the heavy hydrocarbons during either vapour phase or using the circulation process. After this process is complete blinds can be removed and the mechanical maintenance can begin.

DECONTAMINATION

Decontamination accomplishes degassing and also removes light volatile contaminants from metal surfaces. Decontamination would also encompass iron sulphide removal In light end units this would be suitable and would allow maintenance activities to begin. In heavy end units the proper chemistry can remove deposits and would allow maintenance activities to begin.

CLEANING

Cleaning is the removal of soluble solids, liquids, and gaseous contaminants. Entry can be made into vessels without respiratory protection and repairs or inspection activities can start immediately.
