Cleaning with energy efficiency and minimal water wastage

A special steam degreaser now delivers rapid degreasing action, even on the most stubborn grime, while using minimal water. The cleaning molecules’ kinetic and thermal energy is greatly enhanced to dislodge grease and reduce the viscosity of grease cakes. Click here for more information.
New hygiene requirements exposed by the recent pandemic are driving higher cleanliness standards in industrial plants. Cleanliness, energy efficiency, and other best practices often combine to yield the best products for users.
The Society for Testing and Materials defines six major contaminant groups in industrial parts. These include pigmented compounds, non-pigmented grease, rust and scale, chips, and buffing.
Oil-dispersant cleaners and degreasers address all six groups.
Cleaners and degreasers are mostly aqueous and consist of surfactants, sequestering agents, alkaline builders, and other special-use agents.
Most degreasers work on the principle of molecular dislodgment, in which cleaning-agent molecules have a long hydrophobic chain that attracts oil and grease and a hydrophilic end that attracts water. The hydrophobic molecules surround the oil particles, dislodge them, and carry them away with water. For industrial grease, using these new cleaners with electric, high-temperature steam could be one of the best, rapid cleaning methods.
By electrifying industrial heating in the Cement, Chemical and Metals Production, Industrial Parts Manufacturing, Food and Beverage, Ore Drying, and Calcining industries, we can reduce total emissions by 1/3 while using only 20-40% of the expenditure required by other techniques.
Delivering high-temperature steam from electrothermal equipment differs from using high-pressure water. High-temperature steam cleans at multiple levels, from degreasing to disinfecting to sterilizing, and even peeling if required. When used correctly, high-temperature steam is also a clean, highly effective way to extinguish industrial and other fires.
