Recirculation Method: It is recommended to
use the desired solution according to the degree
of contamination and number of tanks to be
cleaned with this solution. For this reason the
dose rates and results of the cleaning may yary,
but as minimum dosage a0.5%o solution of the
product must be used. The best result is
achieved around 70'C. Slop water should be
pumped ashore or should be pumped to ship's
slop tanks after finishing with the cleaning pro-
cedure.
General Cleuning: For general cleaning appli-
cations,TANK CLEANER S may be used by
brushing, soaking/immersion or any other con-
ventional method that the user believes to be
suitable for the situation at hand.

According to the European Union (EU) laws,
thc MARICHEM OIL SPLL DISPERSANT is
in the class of chemical dispersants that fulfill
the limits of non-toxicity for a chemical disper-

50) for aquatic microorganisms has been tested
and found to be equal to 0.03yo, after 24 hours
of exposure. This value is within the acceptable
limits of non-toxicity from EU directives.
The test for non-toxicity has been performed in
the laboratories of the Greek Institute of
Oceanographic and Fishing Research of the
Ministry of Research and Technology, which
are the official governmental laboratories for
non-toxicity tests.
