Liverpool Power Station

We recently completed a specialist hot water and steam cleaning of oil bunds within the tank room at Liverpool Power Station. These critical containment areas require thorough cleaning to remove oil residues, grime, and potential contaminants, ensuring the site remains safe, compliant, and fully operational.

Using high-temperature steam and hot water allows us to break down stubborn oil deposits effectively, without the need for harsh chemicals, reducing environmental impact and improving workplace safety.

Our Cleaning Approach

Using a combination of high-temperature steam and hot water, we thoroughly cleaned the bund surfaces, breaking down stubborn oil deposits and lifting away accumulated dirt. This method is highly effective for oily and greasy build-up, without relying on harsh chemical solvents that could harm the environment or the bund materials.

The process also involved careful site assessment and adherence to strict safety protocols, ensuring no disruption to ongoing power station operations and full compliance with environmental regulations.
