Chemicals Formulated for Centrifugal Compressor Cleaning
Our Lineup of Centrifugal Compressor Cleaners
Centrifugal compressors in production service often experience a build up of gas stream contaminants – both organic and inorganic. The presence of foulants constrains and disturbs the gas flow, reducing compression and elevating operating temperatures. Higher temperatures further promote fouling through polymerization of plated contaminants. The result is lower compressor performance and a reduction in overall plant performance.
Because the contaminant are a byproduct of the process gas, filtration or extraction are not realistic options. Cleaning with abrasive compounds can erode aerodynamic surfaces and damage high performance coatings. Product schedules make it difficult to shut down solely for the purpose of hand cleaning. For these reasons many operators have elected to clean on-line with continuous injection of water or petroleum based solvents. Water provides some cooling but has little effect on the removal of contaminants. Petroleum based solvent wash oils will remove organic contaminants but have little success dissolving inorganic contaminants.

R-MC jet engine cleaner is the only formula tested, approved, and recommended by the major jet engine manufacturers. R-MC’s patented formula was engineered to meet the stringent needs of the commercial aviation community including both the engine and airframe specifications.
Industrial Gas Turbines
The compressor cleaning equipment is designed to remove deposits from the compressor. A contaminated or dirty compressor will be most evident in the form of reduced maximum output power or increased exhaust gas temperature, and increase fuel consumption at a given output power and ambient temperature. In severe cases, deposits may cause compressor stall during acceleration or application of load.
Diesel Engines
Sludge build up in turbochargers and superchargers decrease engine performance and shortens its useful life. Deposit buildup in scavenge spaces can cause engine fires. Carbon build up on valves and pistons can cause fires, jamming and breakage. A dirty diesel engine can shut your operation down and cost you money.
