Rinsing with solvents or water-based cleaning agents is common. This works well for cleaning pipes with smooth surfaces and fairly fresh PFAS deposits. Aged deposits and PFAS deposits in areas with poor flow or in corrugated pipes in heated areas of extinguishing systems are problematic. The combination of Fluoro <sup>FighterTM<\/sup> with <sup>comprex\u00ae<\/sup> technology makes it possible to efficiently clean all these areas of the extinguishing systems as well as to mobilize and then completely remove aged PFAS deposits in areas with poor flow.    <\/p>\n<p>Waste water containing PFAS is produced during cleaning. Special equipment is required to handle and dispose of the pollutants properly. These include pressure-resistant decompression tanks to separate solids and air from the water containing the cleaning agent. The solids are then disposed of properly.

Trained employees inspect the extinguishing system and determine preparatory work. This includes defining the cleaning sections, including feed points for the comprex\u00ae <sup>unit<\/sup>, discharge points to the disposal facility, any necessary conversion measures and, finally, planning the sequence in which the pipe sections are to be cleaned. The plans drawn up enable <sup>comprex\u00ae<\/sup> units to be used properly and efficiently in combination with the partner companies&#8217; equipment.     \n\nIn addition to improved cleaning, the use of <sup>comprex\u00ae<\/sup> technology offers further advantages. In contrast to conventional rinsing with water or detergent-containing rinsing media, impulse technology reduces the quantities of water and expensive detergents required, thus saving disposal costs. Potential savings of more than 90&nbsp;% are possible.  \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-f372995 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"f372995\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-6e0cb86\" data-id=\"6e0cb86\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4b65f75 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"4b65f75\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Our service offerings at a glance<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-02c2d20 elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"02c2d20\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;,&quot;_animation_delay&quot;:100}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Fundamentals<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5cb5f47 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"5cb5f47\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Perfluorinated and polyfluorinated alkyl substances (PFAS) are persistent substances.

The so-called Aqueous Film Forming Foam (AFFF) consisted of various compounds, mainly perfluorinated acids and their salts with different molecular sizes. Due to the large number of compounds, it is difficult to regulate their use.  <\/p>\n<p>Requirements are based on reliable analytical methods. PFAS contents in AFFF can be determined using various methods. In addition to single substance analysis, it is also possible to determine sum parameters such as TOP assay, adsorbable organic fluorine (AOF) or extractable organic fluorine (EOF). Chromatographic methods in combination with mass spectrometry or adsorption methods are suitable for extremely low concentrations.   <\/p>\n<p>Of all the methods mentioned here, single substance analysis has the lowest limit of quantification. The concentrations are in the range of 1 ng\/l to 5 ng\/l for water samples and in the range of 10 \u00b5g\/l to 100 \u03bcg\/l for foam concentrate samples. However, an analytical standard must be available for each substance. So far, such standards are available for less than 100 PFAS.

In addition to these PFAS-containing foaming agents, high-performance fluorine-free foaming agents are now available in the form of protein or multigrade foaming agents.

PFAS residues remain on surfaces and poorly flowing areas of the extinguishing systems. While mobile containers with adhering fluorine-containing residues can be disposed of properly, special cleaning technology is required for permanently installed tanks and pipelines. Due to their low wettability, PFAS are difficult to mobilize. This has led to the development of special cleaning agents such as Fluoro <sup>FighterTM<\/sup>.    <\/p>\n<p>The cost of these cleaning agents and, above all, the cost of disposing of the PFAS-containing wastewater that is produced means that they must be used sparingly. The combination of special techniques contributes to this: water-based cleaning agents, <sup>comprex\u00ae<\/sup> cleaning and appropriate waste water treatment. This combination conserves resources, i.e. significantly less fresh water for the cleaning solution and correspondingly less energy for burning the discharged solids and adsorbents. In addition, this procedure makes it possible to effectively remove PFAS residues from existing extinguishing systems.   <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-10ed737 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"10ed737\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a76b45c elementor-widget elementor-widget-template\" data-id=\"a76b45c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"template.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-template\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div data-elementor-type=\"container\" data-elementor-id=\"37066\" class=\"elementor elementor-37066 elementor-31391 elementor-31391\" data-elementor-post-type=\"elementor_library\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-10a28d3c e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"10a28d3c\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-954ff3 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"954ff3\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-65676687 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"65676687\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">What makes our solution stand out:<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5ed08d4c elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"5ed08d4c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">With our Comprex\u00ae air-water impulse cleaning system, we provide an <span style=\"color:#307FE2\"> effective, sustainable, and  resource-efficient cleaning solution.<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4d452215 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"4d452215\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-188605d6 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"188605d6\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-60e93307 elementor-widget elementor-widget-icon-box\" data-id=\"60e93307\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"icon-box.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-icon-box-wrapper\">\n\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-icon-box-content\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-icon-box-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span  >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tDo you have any questions?
