Industrial Applications

The petrochemical, refining and other traditionally tagged "heavy" industries are continually searching to find the quickest, most effective and commercially viable methods of keeping their operations running - downtime means production is offline and no revenue stream.  

  • Tank cleaning / decontamination
  • Tower cleaning / decontamination
  • Heat exchangers
  • Line cleaning
  • Equipment cleaning / maintenance
  • Spill, leak cleanup
  • Plant vehicle lots, repair shops

Micro-Blaze® Emergency Liquid Spill Control has been used in Gulf Coast plants and refineries for years to quickly take care of those spills and leaks that happen every day in facilities.  Plant environmental departments have begun using Micro-Blaze® Emergency Liquid Spill Control for tank cleaning and decontamination projects along with the input/output line cleaning done during their "turnaround" maintenance periods.  Findings show that their turnaround downtimes have been significantly reduced on these projects.  Micro-Blaze® Emergency Liquid Spill Control is now an integral factor in their turnarounds.


Using Micro-Blaze® Emergency Liquid Spill Control helps your facility's bottom line by:

  • Reducing personnel risk from exposure to dangerous cleaning compounds
  • Reducing downtime on turnaround cleaning of vessels, lines, piping, towers, etc.
  • Keeping hazardous waste stream to a minimum; in many cases, it could all be sent to the plant wastewater system, eliminating expensive hauling and incinerating.

Some of the industrial compounds successfully remediated with Micro-Blaze® Emergency Liquid Spill Control:

  • Benzene and benzene compounds
  • BTEX compounds
  • MTBE 
  • Acetone and paint sludge
  • Polyurethane resin wastes
  • Glycols
  • Pipeline condensate (drip gas) leaks
  • Petroleum-based wastes, spills
  • DMF (dimethylformanide)
  • AN (acrylonitrile)
  • Acetone, toluene, paint sludge
  • Other organic chemical wastes
