# Pipe Cleaning

[Home](https://www.nordicgreenproducts.com/) › [NGP’s Services](https://www.nordicgreenproducts.com/services/)

Comprehensive pipe cleaning solutions removing biofilm, rust, scale, and contaminants efficiently, ensuring optimal marine and industrial piping performance.

### Inspection and Preparation

- Initial pipe system inspection to identify the type and extent of contamination.
- Isolation of pipe sections for targeted and controlled cleaning processes.

### Tailored Chemical Cleaning

Our team utilizes advanced cleaning agents specifically designed for different contamination types and pipe conditions:

- **Alkal Gel** A high-viscosity alkaline gel for targeted cleaning on vertical or hard-to-reach surfaces. Efficiently removes organic contaminants, grease, and biofilm without mechanical abrasion.
- **Alkal Fluid** A biodegradable alkaline cleaner, ideally suited for circulation and flushing of pipe systems. Quickly dissolves sludge, grease, organic deposits, and biofilm, restoring optimal flow conditions.
- **Marine Cleaner** An effective cleaning agent based on mild acids, optimized for removal of mineral deposits such as rust, salts, and limescale. Suitable for periodic maintenance to prevent significant scaling.
- **Marine Descaler** A powerful, biodegradable descaling solution using mild acids. Specifically formulated for tougher mineral deposits, corrosion, and hardened scale in challenging pipe cleaning scenarios.

### Circulation and Extended Reaction Time

- Circulation of cleaning solutions at controlled temperatures (typically around 60°C) enhances the effectiveness of deposit dissolution.
- Extended dwell times ensure thorough penetration and complete breakdown of contaminants.

### High-Pressure Rinsing

- Thorough flushing with high-pressure water removes loosened deposits and chemical residues, ensuring pipe cleanliness and integrity.

### Final Inspection and Testing

- Post-cleaning visual inspection confirms complete removal of contaminants.
- Pressure testing and system checks validate pipe integrity, flow restoration, and operational readiness.
