Tank Reclamation

In the previous phases, present and subsequent to the reclamation of tanks and pipes, the explosiveness and quantity of oxygen in tanks are checked with specific and approved equipment, in order to constantly monitor the presence of potentially flammable vapours.

During all the operational phases of tank reclamation, Exxro uses its own vehicles and equipment and highly specialised, adequately trained and updated in compliance with the provisions of Legislative Decree 81/2008 concerning the protection of health and safety in the workplace, and Legislative Decree 177/2011 concerning the rules for the qualification of companies operating in environments adjacent to or suspected of pollution.

During the tank reclamation operations, Exxro adopts cleaning techniques tested for many years that minimise the waste generated by the internal cleaning activity, obtaining a thorough and Gas Free cleanliness, for the benefit of significant economic savings and respect for the environment.

All the waste generated by the reclamation of the tanks are managed entirely by Exxro, through the analytical classification, the packaging according to law, the transport with authorised trucks, the approval according to the ADR regulation and the issuance of all the documentation proving the correct disposal according to law.
