Bioremediation applied to manual parts cleaning systems
The major advantages of cleaning systems:
It is safe for the user
It is environmentally-friendly
It does not require a high capital investment
It is a self-regulating process
Cleaning systems responds to the growing desire to eliminate
liquid waste streams in the form of used solvents, saturated
with hydrocarbons, that need to be disposed of on a regular
basis. For these applications, a very specific type of microorganism
has been selected, which digests a variety of hydrocarbons
typically found in industrial MRO applications in the form
of oils, lubricants and greases.
Safe and effective
The cleaning systems process not only eliminates the unwanted
hydrocarbons but, at the same time, maintains the cleaning
power of the solution, eliminating the need for frequent
cleaner replacement. Thus, a water-based cleaning solution
that also combines bioremediation is the safest and most
effective alternative to parts cleaning systems with solvents,
even when compared to other alternatives such as biosolvents
or traditional water-based cleaners.

Cleaning systems
Parts washers performance is a combination of several
factors. In most cases Bio-Circle's cleaner performance comes
close to solvents, relying on three key components:
Highly efficient cleaning
Bio-Circle L is pH neutral, formulated with cutting-edge cleaning
agents and has the strength to effectively break the bond
between the part and oil/grease.
Once the oil/grease is separated it is then encapsulated ensuring
parts remain clean.
Mechanical action increases speed
The flow of liquid is combined with a hard bristle brush to
clean faster and dislodge oil/grease within configuration
of parts.
Heated liquid
Bio-Circle L solution is maintained at 37oC (100oF) greatly
increasing the cleanerpower and operator comfort. METAL CLEANING APPLIED TO MANUAL PARTS CLEANING SYSTEMS
It is only more recently that bioremediation
was applied successfully with water-bases cleaners as an
alternative to industrial parts cleaners with solvent. It
is important to state that the bioremediation process does
not clean the part; it takes place only once the cleaning
agents have separated the contaminants from the parts.

SAFE AND EFFECTIVE
In order to maximize the digestive activity
to the point where the rate of remediation is sufficient
to cope with the amount of hydrocarbons that are generated
by daily parts washing activity, the solution is maintained
at ideal conditions for temperature and aeration.
