Tankleen VO RX – Vegetable Oil & Hard Stain Remover
Tankleen VO RX is a specialized marine tank cleaning chemical designed for the removal of vegetable oils, animal fats, and stubborn organic residues from cargo tanks and associated surfaces.
It is particularly useful for cleaning cargo tanks after the transportation of vegetable oils and other difficult-to-remove oily cargoes, helping prepare tanks for subsequent cargo loading.
Tankleen VO Rx is an excellent cleaner proven to reduce the amount of cleaning time on other vegoil cargoes as well. Tankleen VO Rx is a high quality blend of chemicals and also use for the cleaning and passivation of stainless steelproducts. For veg oil cleaning, this advantage can be up to 50% compared to traditional cleanings. Due to the excellent cleaning properties, the product works on many vegoil cargoes, such as:
- CPO
- Palm Stearin
- CPKO
- PFAD

Vegetable oils and Fatty acids tend to leave white stains when cleaned with the most commonly used cleaning solutions, especially the cargo deriving from palmoil and high melting point vegetable oil cargo can account for challenging cleanings. In most cases a two phase cleaning is performed or suggested with an alkaline cleaning and subsequent acid cleaning to remove the white stains. An alkaline cleaning is preferably performed using fresh water as high alkalinity and seawater will intensify the formation of stains. Hardness salts in combination with high alkalinity and Fatty Acids will precipitate as white stains. Tankleen VO Rx prevents formation of precipitations from hardness salt and removes the vegetable oils in one step, even using seawater.
Dosage
Tank cleaning instructions::
In case PFAD is present, it is strongly recommended to start with a 1- 2% solution of Tankleen VO Rx . Heat the solution up to at least 60 °C and circulate for at least 2 full cleaning cycles. It is advised to rinse tanks and systems after the cleaning. Tankleen VO Rx is suitable to be used on epoxy coatings and stainless steel, it is not suitable to be used on zinc coated tanks.
Consider the below for cleaning with Tankleen VO Rx is
- The prewash, if performed, should always be done at a temperature of at least 15 °C higher than the melting point of the cargo.
- The prewash, recirculation solution and hotwash can also be performed withseawater
-
Final rinse should be performed with fresh water to remove salt deposits
A rule of thumb is to have for every 500m3 tank volume at least 1m3 of cleaning solution containing 2 - 3% Tankleen VO Rx .
Hardness stains– Tank cleaning
Cleaning with 2% Tankleen VO Rx at a temperature of 60-70 oC to the tank wash machine.
DOSAGE
Tank cleaning– PFAD & vegetable oil 2 - 4% solution or; In case of recirculation at least 30L per 500m3 tank volume.
Hardness stains 2 % solution
Industrial Usage
“The product can also significantly reduce cargo hold cleaning time after carrying various vegetable oil (veg-oil) cargoes, helping improve vessel turnaround efficiency.”

Vegetable oils and fatty acids often leave white stains when cleaned using commonly applied cleaning solutions, particularly in the case of palm oil–derived cargoes and other high–melting-point vegetable oils, which present significant cleaning challenges. As a result, a two-stage cleaning process is frequently required or recommended, involving an initial alkaline wash followed by an acid cleaning to eliminate the white residues. Alkaline cleaning is ideally carried out with fresh water, as the combination of high alkalinity and seawater can exacerbate stain formation. Hardness salts, when combined with elevated alkalinity and fatty acids, tend to precipitate and form white deposits. Tankleen VO Rx effectively prevents the formation of such precipitates and removes vegetable oil residues in a single-step process, even when seawater is used.
Tank Cleaning Instructions
When PFAD is present, it is strongly recommended to commence cleaning with a 1–2% solution of Tankleen VO Rx. Heat the solution to a minimum temperature of 60 °C and circulate it for at least two complete cleaning cycles. Following the cleaning operation, tanks and associated systems should be thoroughly rinsed. Tankleen VO Rx is suitable for use on epoxy-coated surfaces and stainless steel; however, it must not be used on zinc-coated tanks.
Key Considerations for Cleaning with Tankleen VO Rx
As a general guideline, for every 500 m³ of tank volume, a minimum of 1 m³ of cleaning solution containing 2–3% Tankleen VO Rx should be used.
Hardness Stain Removal
For the removal of hardness-related stains, clean using a 2% Tankleen VO Rx solution at a temperature of 60–70 °C through the tank washing machine.
Dosage
Tank cleaning– PFAD & vegetable oil: 2 - 4% solution or; In case of recirculation at least 30L per 500m3 tank volume Hardness stains: 2 % solution |
