Advantages of the CTC-Cleaner-VLC

  • Highly concentrated cleaning agent
  • Necessary concentration in water only 0,2 to 0,4 %
  • Can be used as well in seawater
  • Wide range of application
  • Quicker drying of cargo tanks (e.g. in winter time)
  • Can be mixed with Sodium- or Potassium Hydroxide as well as with alkaline cleaners to produce a more effective alkaline cleaning solution (boosting effect)
  • Can be mixed with Citric-, Phosphoric- or Nitric Acid as well as with acid cleaners to produce a more effective acid based cleaning solution (boosting effect)
  • The implementation of the CTC-Cleaner-VLC including the additional applicability together with Alkalies and Acids replace a large scale of different individual cleaners and will therefore simplify and economize the tank cleaning process.
