A Tank Degassing Chemical With No Flash Point of Its Own.

The oldest objection to chemical degassing is that most degassing agents are hydrocarbon-based, so you are adding flammable liquid to a flammable tank. Hasten Cleanse is water-based with no flash point. It bonds to the residue, raises its flash point, and lowers the vapor being generated, while lifting the residue for removal. This page is about industrial hydrocarbon tanks and vessels, not automotive coolant tanks.

Non-flammable degassing agent. Nothing in the pail can ignite. The torch test on treated hydrocarbon is the demo.

One product for degassing and cleaning. Cuts the residue and the vapor in the same pass, with non-hazardous wash water.

What Makes It Different

Flammable vapor comes off the liquid hydrocarbon left in a tank. Ventilation dilutes the vapor. Hasten Cleanse goes after the source.

Bonds to the hydrocarbon

Surfactants and fatty acids attach to the residue and the free product on walls, floor, and in sludge.

Raises the flash point

Bound hydrocarbon vaporizes more slowly. Less vapor is generated in the first place, so LEL and VOC readings fall rather than being blown out.

Lifts the residue

The same wash that suppresses vapor lifts the residue into a water suspension for the vac truck. Cleaning and degassing happen together.

Adds nothing flammable

Water-based, no flash point. Nothing in the tank got more dangerous because of the product.

Where It Is Used

Storage tanks

Crude and product tanks before entry and hot work.

Process vessels and bullets

NGL and LPG storage, pressure vessels, exchangers with hydrocarbon film.

Pipelines and piping

Circulate through sections before cutting or welding.

Separators, sumps, and slop tanks

Sludge plus vapor in a confined space.

What Hasten Cleanse does not do

It is not a solvent and not a caustic. It will not dissolve, melt, or strip material that is physically bonded or baked onto a surface: scale, rust, hardened deposits, coatings. It lifts hydrocarbons, oil, grease, crude, sludge, and paraffin, by emulsifying them, and it needs agitation, circulation, pressure, or heat to do that work. If your problem is a stuck-on solid rather than a hydrocarbon film or residue, tell us and we will say so.

Concentrate and Packaging

No added bacteriaNothing in the pail is alive. Hasten Cleanse feeds the microbes you already have, in a treatment plant, a separator, or the soil, instead of competing with them.

Full concentrateSold as concentrate and diluted on site, 1:10 for heavy residue to 1:50 for light. Compare products by working gallons per drum, not by the drum.

Tank Degassing Chemical Questions, Answered Straight

Is this for a car coolant degas tank?

No. This is an industrial product for hydrocarbon storage and process tanks.

Is the product itself flammable?

No. Water-based, no flash point.

How is it applied?

Diluted 1:20 to 1:50 and sprayed or circulated. Works with pressure washers and foam generators too.

Does it handle H2S?

Customers report H2S readings dropping with LEL and VOC. Measure on your own tank at the demo.

Does it strip scale or hardened deposits?

No. It works on hydrocarbon residue. It is not a solvent or caustic.
