Tank cleaning is carried out using a side-entry circulation nozzle installed through designated tank nozzles or flanged connections. The system operates by discharging high-velocity water jets in a controlled rotational pattern to circulate cleaning fluid throughout the tank, effectively dislodging and removing sludge, sediments, and hydrocarbon residues from the tank floor and internal surfaces.
The circulation action promotes continuous suspension and transfer of loosened contaminants toward the tank suction or drain point, allowing for efficient removal without full manual entry. This method is particularly effective for large storage tanks, enabling improved cleaning coverage while reducing manpower requirements, water consumption, and confined space exposure.
