A powder descaling composition is disclosed herein, as well as methods for using the same. A benefit to the powder descaling composition can be providing a compact, lightweight powder composition that is easily and efficiently transported, stored, dispensed and used for removing scale from the surfaces of machinery.

Disclosed are inhibitor/cleaner compositions comprising alkyldiphenyloxide disulfonates, and methods of inhibiting corrosion of and removing schmoo from metal containments in contact with corrosive water sources. Also disclosed are metal containment assemblages comprising inhibitor/cleaner compositions and metal containment therefore. The alkyldiphenyloxide disulfonates are soluble or substantially soluble in the water sources and inhibit corrosion of the metal containments by the water sources containing corrodents. The alkyldiphenyloxide disulfonates also remove schmoo from the metal containments. The inhibitor/cleaners of the invention are useful for addition to produced waters and other corrosive water sources resulting from enhanced oil recovery operations. The inhibitor/cleaners inhibit corrosion of tanks, devices, and other metal containments such as carbon steel pipes which come into contact with produced waters from the oil recovery operations, while also providing schmoo reduction and removal from the metal containments. The inhibitor cleaners are also useful for addition to other corrosive aqueous fluids to inhibit corrosion of metal containments with which the aqueous fluids come into contact, such as corrosive aqueous discharge from mines and other industrial operations such as paper-making.

A clean-in-place (CIP) process can utilize ultrasoft water during one or more steps of the process to improve overall cleaning efficacy. Ultrasoft water can exhibit extremely low levels of calcium and magnesium. Performing a CIP process with ultrasoft water may provide cleaning improvements as compared to merely using soft water.

The present invention relates to a process for removing the fouling deposited in a milk processor unit after a thermal processing of milk or a food product including milk at a T between 80 C. and 150 C. for at least 4 hours, including said fouling proteins, lactose, minerals and products formed therefrom, comprising the step of applying a cleaning solution on said fouling deposited in the milk processor unit. The present invention further relates to a cleaning solution for removing the fouling deposited in a milk processor unit.

The invention combines chemical cleaning with mechanical cleaning. In case of large scale facilities, the invention allows cleaning from bottom to top which obviates the need for special arrangements such as confined space entry scaffolding and safety nets removal in order to reach higher or inner parts. The dual effect of the combined mechanical and chemical cleaning facilitates a surprising efficient removal of organic and inorganic sediments. The chemical cleaning is achieved by a reaction of cleaning chemicals with the organic matter such as: oils, greases, hydrocarbons, cellulose. The implementation of the invention permits use of non-toxic, non-hazardous, environmental friendly mixture of sodium carbonate and sodium bicarbonate. Typical particle size of the thin powder used according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention shall be between 20-100 m.

A cleaning composition, which is suitable for cleaning fuel delivery systems, air-intake systems, intake valves, and combustion chambers, includes at least 3 wt. % of a polyether component, at least 5 wt. % of a polar solvent, and at least 5 wt. % a non-polar solvent. The polyether component is selected from polyethers, polyetheramines, and mixtures thereof.

The object of the present invention is to provide a cleaning agent that is superior in the initial cleaning effect and allows residues to be easily distributed evenly in the next fabricated molded article. The object is achieved by a cleaning agent used for a molding machine and including a thermoplastic resin and a glass wool.

A method of surface treating a load-bearing member comprising a tension member and a polymer jacket around the tension member is disclosed. According to the method, a liquid composition including water, a water-soluble organic polyol or a water-soluble organic polymer, and a surfactant is applied to a surface of the polymer jacket.

A method of equipment decontamination may include: introducing a cleaning stream comprising hydrogen and a solvent comprising a fatty acid methyl ester and an oxygenated solvent into the equipment; and introducing a stream comprising nitrogen into the equipment, wherein the equipment comprises deposits and other contaminants.

This invention relates to cleaning the induction systems, the combustion chambers and exhaust systems of internal combustion engines. And, more particularly, to chemicals and mixtures of chemicals for removing the different types of carbon deposits encountered in internal combustion engines used in road vehicles. Carbon deposits were taken from the induction systems of these road vehicles for the purpose of bench testing such carbon and product development. More specifically, chemicals (i.e., solvents) and chemical mixes (i.e., solutions) have been accurately tested on such harvested carbon deposits for their ability to remove the various types of carbon deposits that accumulate within road vehicle internal combustion engines. Additionally this invention also relates to apparatus for delivering chemicals and chemical mixes. Which includes those developed by applicant, as well as those prior art products marketed for carbon removal, to the induction system of vehicles to maximize the effectiveness of the chemical delivery.
