Flush the tank 10 minutes with fresh water to remove the
residues of seawater. - Prepare on of the following cleaning solution with fresh water :
- 0.4% RXSOL CTC -VOLC
- 0.4% RXSOL CTC-VOLC
- 2.5% Sodium or Potassium Hydroxide
- 5% RXSOL AL 2005
5. Butter worth the tank 1, 5 hour by recirculation.
6. Butter worth the tank 1 hour with hot seawater (70-80° C.) Rinse the tank

8. Rinse the tank with fresh water
9. Ventilate, mop and dry the tank. Inspect the tank: Depending on the

10. To remove these residues Butter worth the tank with one of the following
solution:
- 3-5% phosphoric acid and 0.4% RXSOL CTC-VOLC; or
- 3-5% nitric acid and 0.4% RXSOL CTC VOLC; or
-
2-5% of a metallic brightener (RXSOL MB 1011) and 0.4% RXSOL CTC-
VOLC The cleaning temperature should be moderate (50°C.) Use heating coils not the Butter worth heater.

-
5% RXSOL AL 2005 Butter worth the tank 2.0 hour by recirculation. The
cleaning temperature should be approx 60°C (not higher).
17. Butter worth the tank 1 hour with hot seawater (70-80°C.)
18. Rinse the tank with fresh water
19. Ventilate, mop and dry the tank continued Inspect the tank: Depending on

20. To remove these residues Butter worth the tank with one of the following
solution:
- 3-5% phosphoric acid and 0.4% RXSOL CTC -VOLC; or
- 3-5% nitric acid and 0.4% CTC-Cleaner-VLC; or
- 2-5% of a metallic brightener (RXSOL MB 1011) and 0.4% RXSOL CTC
