Uses & Applications

Mopping: Fill the container with properly diluted product (1:10 to 1:15 depending on soil type and concentration). Unlike degreasers, BioRem-2000 Surface Cleaner™ digests oil and grease. As a result, there will not be an oily film in the water of the mop bucket. The solution may be used for several days until a film begins to appear. Although the water may look dirty, it does not mean the solution has stopped working. If the solution does not seem to be "picking up" the oil very well, then it is time to change the solution. For best results, with oily floors or visible oil, allow the solution to remain on the surface for about 30 seconds before mopping. Liberally apply to floor with a wet mop, dip mop again into bucket and agitate solution into surface. If the grease and/or oil is very thick, use an old push broom to scrub the solution into the surface before mopping. BioRem-2000 Surface Cleaner™ will remove the oily film and leave the surface dry and clean preventing slip-n-fall accidents.

Auto Floor Scrubber: Fill scrubber with properly diluted product (1:20 to 1:40 depending on soil type and concentration). Start with a 1:25 dilution rate and adjust after testing. Add product to the solution tank full of clean water or dispense through a proportioner system. For best results, employ the double-scrub method. For the first auto floor scrubber pass, do not lower the squeegee. Spray solution while scrubbing. For the second pass, spray solution, scrub and lower squeegee for soiled water removal. BioRem-2000 Surface Cleaner™ will clean the auto floor scrubber by removing the hydrocarbon build up in the tanks therefore enhancing the overall performance. Leaves surface dry and oil-free without any residue and prevents slip-n-fall accidents.

Degreasing: Fill container with properly diluted product (1:2 to 1:8 depending on soil type and concentration). The dilution rate may be determined if the operator will be using rags to clean (stronger), scrub brush (medium) or rinsing with a power washer (weaker). When cleaning heavy oil/grease deposits, allow product to soak for 1-2 minutes before removing. Heavy deposits of synthetic grease may require additional dwell time. BioRem-2000 Surface Cleaner™ will remove the oily film leaving the surface dry and clean. It may be used on any water-safe surface.

Oil/Water Separators (OWS): Can be costly to maintain and, if not properly managed, can pollute surface and ground water and lead to costly violations. BioRem-2000 Surface Cleaner™ L] improves OWS operations and reduces costs and liabilities. Conventional degreasers disperse -yoil in wash water and make OWS's ineffective allowing oil to bypass the collection system straight to the sewer. BioRem-2000 Surface Cleaner™ added to an OWS breaks down petroleum ^ products suspended or dissolved in the wastewater, floating oil, and/or sludge. Facilities using TE" BioRem-2000 Surface Cleaner™ have eliminated wastewater violations and have reported reducing their sludge petroleum content by more than 80 percent. Such reductions lower the regulatory status of OWS sludge, which will affect the required disposal method and disposal costs.

Fuel Remediation & Cleaning Power

In Figure 1,there is shown a 1,000 gallon underground fuel storage tank containing jet fuel residue and flammable vapors. Before this tank could be dismantled with cutting torches, the remaining fuel needed to be neutralized and the tank thoroughly cleaned to remove any flammable vapors. Two gallons of BioRem-2000 Surface Cleaner™ were applied and circulated throughout the tank. In Figure 2, the remaining jet fuel was remediated, rendering the fuel non-flammable and neutralizing any flammable vapors. The tank was rinsed with pressurized water leaving a clean, residue-free and vapor-free environment.
