The CLEAN-UP BALL is a water soluble sphere shaped solid chemical solution which is used to treat the water in oil tanks with water
bottoms, produced water tanks and oilfield water holding containers. They are composed of Ammonium Quaternary Salts and surfactants
which are especially effective in preventing CO2 and Hydrogen Sulfide corrosion caused by sulfide reducing bacteria.

The CLEAN-UP BALL is dropped through the hatch of the tank. The specific gravity of the CLEAN-UP
BALL will allow it to fall through the oil in the tank to the bottom to dissolve in the water, dispersing to
treat the water with corrosion inhibiting chemicals. The CLEAN-UP BALL has also been used in
pipelines containing fluid and debris. These can be used as a soluble pipeline pig in pipelines where
water is present to allow them to dissolve and treat the water the solution comes in contact with.

The number of CLEAN-UP BALLS required is based on the severity of the problem being encountered
and the volume of water to be treated. In oil tanks, only the bottoms (area below load line) needs to be
calculated to determine the required number of CLEAN-UP BALLS. As a rule of thumb, we
recommend the following treatment on oil tank bottoms with the load line located 14” from bottom;
• 210 BBL – 1 CLEAN-UP BALL
• 300 BBL – 2 CLEAN-UP BALLS
• 500 BBL – 4 CLEAN-UP BALLS
For other size vessels, amounts can be adjusted to treat the water portion of the fluid at approximately 200-400 ppm.

Please refer to SDS prior to using this product. As with all industrial chemicals, contact with eyes or skin should be avoided. If contact with skin is made wash thoroughly with water. Pellets should be stored in a cool dry place. Always remove pellets from the container with the provided scoop while wearing rubber gloves to avoid skin contact. Goggles are advised.
