Description

A specific formulation which shows an excellent cleaning efficiency already at very low dosing rates in alkaline solutions up to 30°Bé (approx. 300 g/l NaOH). The contained dispersants and special surfactants can dissolve, soften, and remove organic residues, sugar carbon and organic sugar degradation products quickly. They also prevent the re-accumulation of deposits formed on the evaporator surface.

    Benefits

    • The special combination of soft complexing agents and surfactants causes faster removal of the deposits from the metal surfaces
    • The surface tension between the phases is reduced
    • Silicates are dispersed which would otherwise not be removed
    • The effectiveness of water jet or acidic cleaning is increased
    • The redeposition and adhesion to the heat surfaces are prevented by the dispersants.


    During chemical cleaning operations in the cane sugar industry the following advantages have proved a success when adding KEBOPLEX SP:

        • The dissolution of sugar decomposition products and other inconvenient organic components (e.g. waxes from the cane, proteins and other gelatinous substances) in alkaline solutions is considerably improved and accelerated
        • At the alkaline treatment with NaOH solutions of different concentration and when adding 1 - 5 % sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) calcium compounds such as calcium oxalate, calcium sulfate a.s.o. being difficult to dissolve are transformed into acid soluble compounds by adding KEBOPLEX SP. As a result the treatment period is shortened
        • At rinsings with water the detached sludge can easily be removed. Consequently the requirement of acid at a subsequent acidification is considerably reduced
        • KEBOPLEX SP is even resistant to high temperatures and effective
        • It can be used for alkali concentrations up to approx. 30°Bé (25 %)

        Dosing, Addition

        KEBOPLEX SP is added either when preparing the alkaline solution in the mixing tank or directly into the body filled with the alkaline solution ready for use.

          For the regular alkaline cleanings of the evaporators either by the spraying or when boiling out the following procedure is recommended:

              • 4 - 12 % NaOH (sodium hydroxide) by adding of
              • 1.5 % KEBOPLEX SP

              After each cleaning process the losses in the NaOH concentration have to be replaced up to 4 - 12 % again. After using the solution for three times, 0.5 % KEBOPLEX SP have to be added, or according to consumption of NaOH. It is important to rinse with hot water resp. to boil out the evaporators after the alkaline treatment. Experience has shown that further scales are removed at this rinsing.

              KEBOPLEX SP can also be added to alkaline solutions with lower or higher concentrations of NaOH.

                        The products shown on our website are only a selection of our entire product range. There is no universal remedy for the rapid removal of impurities. Some can be removed well with alkaline agents, others better in the acidic range. The large variety of conceivable cleaning problems and the large number of additives, inhibitors and ready-to-use cleaning solutions offered by us make it advisable to obtain detailed advice before starting cleaning.
                        The same applies to inhibitors, defoamers, scale preventers, corrosion inhibitors, pickling inhibitors, etc. Depending on the plant, material, product and the type of boiler/cooling water is used, different individual challenges arise. We are well equipped for them.

                        Talk to us, we will be happy to help!
                        On request, we can analyze deposits in our laboratory and develop a cleaning strategy based on our many years of experience, taking into account the conditions on site.
