Case study
Confined space entry cleaning of the Bitumen mixer tank.
The Inspection & Planning Process
Easy clean completed a site survey to determine the scope of work and any potential issues within the confined space. A detailed plan was provided, which included, how the mixer would be accessed, and which rescue safety systems & equipment would be required, for our technicians to clean the bitumen mixer tank.
Client Expectations
- To remove the build-up of bitumen from the internal mixer & associated equipment.
- Look for damage and any report any potential issues within the tank.
- Provide a detailed report, including photographic evidence of before and after cleaning and provide future cleaning recommendations.
Services we carried out
A team of three confined space entry & IRATA trained technicians set up Tripod rescue winch over the entry point to the confined space for access, egress and rescue purposes. The team were attached to the winch and then lowered into the mixer. A confined space supervisor (Top man) was situated at the point of entry to supervise all the operations and for potential rescue purposes. The bitumen was removed by using chiseling methods and was disposed of into the site IBC. The mixer tank was left free from bitumen and ready for use.

"I currently use Easy Clean for a lot of our cleaning activities across site, which can be high risk in confined spaces such as, mixers and silos where rope access is required.
All RAMS and certs are provided and always found to be job specific (Not generic). They are punctual, very professional and conscientious in their work. I will continue to use and would highly recommend."

I have also written procedures and risk assessments for confined space entry as well as being qualified myself, so it is without any hesitation I can thoroughly recommend Easy Clean Ltd. Mark and his team are curtious, polite and efficient, but most importantly safe."
