Chemical heat exchanger cleanings are crucial to ensure machinery remains functional and effective throughout its lifespan. As society gradually shifts towards eco-friendly and sustainable solutions, organic bio-based descalers are becoming more and more commonplace as not only an effective alternative to harsh chemical cleaners, but also a cost-effective choice.
Reduced Downtime
One of the key benefits of utilizing organic descalers is that they can remove scale build up or rust without damaging the equipment itself. Traditional descalers often rely on harsh chemicals which can, over time, corrode equipment. Alternatively, organic descalers are much less corrosive, and result in fewer equipment repairs or replacements throughout its lifespan. This helps to save costs associated with equipment downtime, and in turn increases productivity and efficiency in the workplace.
Improved Safety
While heat exchanger cleanings are critical for ensuring equipment is fully functional, these cleanings can be hazardous if employees are not properly trained with handling chemical solutions. Traditional descalers often pose a greater safety risk for workers as the harsh chemicals can cause burns or respiratory concerns. Organic descalers, however, are bio-based and much less harmful, therefore posing less of a safety risk. This results in overall cost-savings because companies can offer lower insurance premiums while also having a reduced risk of workplace injury and resulting compensation claims.
Cost-Effective Disposal
After completing a heat exchanger cleaning, the chemicals utilized must be disposed of safely due to their hazardous nature. Disposing of traditional chemical descalers can often be costly, while organic descalers are environmentally friendly and largely non-toxic. Using bio-based descalers therefore results in lower waste disposal costs and simultaneously reduces the risk of environmental regulation fines caused by improper chemical disposal.
Switching to organic descalers for your heat exchanger cleanings is not only an environmentally conscious choice, but also a financially-savvy one. Aside from upfront purchase costs, organic descalers largely decrease overall company costs by reducing equipment downtime, improving safety conditions, and minimizing disposal costs.
