    However, with Gamajet tank cleaning machines, confined space entry is greatly reduced eliminating danger to workers. [9] Manual tank cleaning is dangerous in a number of ways. [10] While tank barges can be cleaned in port, shipboard tanks are generally cleaned at sea. [3] This is largely due to risks of fire and explosion inside the tanks. [3]

  3. Hydrocarbon dew point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrocarbon_dew_point

    In the United States, the hydrocarbon dew point of processed, pipelined natural gas is related to and characterized by the term GPM which is the gallons of liquefiable hydrocarbons contained in 1,000 cubic feet (28 m 3) of natural gas at a stated temperature and pressure.

  4. Standard cubic feet per minute - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_cubic_feet_per_minute

    If the system were moving a gas at exactly the "standard" condition, then ACFM would equal SCFM. This usually is not the case as the most important change between these two definitions is the pressure. To move a gas, a positive pressure or a vacuum must be created. When positive pressure is applied to a standard cubic foot of gas, it is compressed.

  5. Pressure washing - Wikipedia

    A pressure washer is used to remove old paint from a boat. Patio flagstones being pressure washed using a rotary nozzle. Pressure washing or power washing is the use of high-pressure water spray to remove loose paint, mold, grime, dust, mud, and dirt from surfaces and objects such as buildings, vehicles and concrete surfaces.

  6. Standard litre per minute - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_litre_per_minute

    The standard liter per minute (SLM or SLPM) is a unit of (molar or) mass flow rate of a gas at standard conditions for temperature and pressure (STP), which is most commonly practiced in the United States, whereas European practice revolves around the normal litre per minute (NLPM). [1]

  7. Clean-in-place - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clean-in-place

    Clean-in-place (CIP) is an automated method of cleaning the interior surfaces of pipes, vessels, equipment, filters and associated fittings, without major disassembly. CIP is commonly used for equipment such as piping, tanks, and fillers. CIP employs turbulent flow through piping, and/or spray balls for tanks or vessels.

  8. Liquefied petroleum gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquefied_petroleum_gas

    LPG, vaporised and at atmospheric pressure, has a higher calorific value (46 MJ/m 3 equivalent to 12.8 kWh/m 3) than natural gas (methane) (38 MJ/m 3 equivalent to 10.6 kWh/m 3), which means that LPG cannot simply be substituted for natural gas. In order to allow the use of the same burner controls and to provide for similar combustion ...

    One example of standard conditions for the calculation of SCCM is = 0 °C (273.15 K) [1] and = 1.01 bar (14.72 psia) and a unity compressibility factor = 1 (i.e., an ideal gas is used for the definition of SCCM). [2] This example is for the semi-conductor-manufacturing industry.
