Storage Tank Degassing, Measured at the Tank
A Houston-shipped water-based concentrate for suppressing hydrocarbon vapor while storage tanks are washed and degassed.
Field notes
The product is described as a concentrate diluted on site and sprayed, circulated, or assisted with warm water while operators continue monitoring LEL and VOC readings. The page gives separate ratios for heavy residue, typical residue, and light film, and names 5-gallon pails, 55-gallon drums, and 275-gallon totes. Its operational boundary is unusually explicit: the chemistry is presented for hydrocarbons, oil, grease, crude, sludge, and paraffin, not scale, rust, coatings, or baked-on solids.
