Hey everyone.
Im sure alot of people have this issue…your systems get contaminated with pesticides or mold…
Would running bleach water or high powered steam through the system remove this?
Stainless…
What are you guys doing? What are some options for lets say removing residue from CLS or piping/tanks
Take care guys!
Magsil pr and .22um welded disk thank u very much to remove it from oil
Alconix for cleaning. Through the lines everything but water flush it good.
I wouldn’t run moldy shit through my good rig id have back up for that and clean it good BTW runs but w magsil pr maybe some t5 and filter all way down to .22um for running the product
Those two things will kill the mold, but will not remove the biofilm - and any underneath the top layer will probably go on living.
Its best to take things apart and give them a good mechanical scrub - and then hit them with soap and bleach to get the most micro-organisms out. Like @StoneD said, most best not to put this kind of stuff into your rig - always hard to get it all out.
For pesticides - knowing which one is important. Alconox is a good alkaline cleaner, but won’t necessary get everything AND then you have to get the water back out as well. So plan accordingly for drying and rinsing - don’t want to leave any NaOH behind or the EDTA surfactant either.
Good luck and tell us what you decide and if it works!
Yeah acetone clean then alconox then alcohol…maybe a butane cleaning then water to make sure its all gone
I’ve been told that running the contaminated parts through a household dishwasher with strong detergent took care of a clients issues- I’m assuming high heat and strong detergent would be a solution but I cannot confirm this to be totally true
