Cleaning plus passivation
Cleaning is often the first step before passivation, so contaminants and free iron are removed properly first. We can clean and then passivate in one visit, which saves you downtime.
We clean process equipment, pipelines, vessels, glass-lined reactors, clean room panels, and polymer surfaces using safe, citric acid based CitriSurf chemistry. No NOx fumes, no hazardous rinse water in most cases, and service across India.
We clean process equipment, pipelines, vessels, and systems used in pharmaceutical, food, and industrial plants, along with the surfaces around them. We do this two ways. CIP, or clean-in-place, cleans the inside of equipment and piping without taking it apart, by circulating a cleaning solution through the system. COP, or clean-out-of-place, is for parts that are removed and cleaned in a dedicated tank or bath. Not every surface in a plant is stainless steel, so we work across six surface types rather than one.
A regulated plant is a mix of materials, and each one needs its own approach. Using a single method everywhere is how linings get damaged and panels get marked. We clean:
Tell us the material mix on your site and we will match the chemistry and method to each surface, rather than treating the whole plant as one job.
Glass-lined reactors are common in API and chemical plants, where the lining is there to survive chemistry that would attack bare steel. The catch is that the reactor is not only glass. The nozzles, jackets, agitator parts, and connected piping are typically stainless steel, so one reactor needs two approaches on the same visit.
We clean the glass lining with a method that suits the lining, and clean, derouge, or passivate the stainless steel surfaces around it. Doing both together, in one shutdown, is what keeps the whole unit in a known condition rather than half of it.
We pick the method that fits your equipment and your downtime window.
We use citric acid based CitriSurf chemistry as a safer alternative to traditional acid cleaning systems. It removes iron and iron oxides from the surface while being easier on your team and the environment.
CitriSurf 77 Plus, which we use for on-site work, is applied direct with no dilution by spray, immersion, or wiping, and helps you meet NSF, USDA, USFDA, EU, and cGMP requirements.
Cleaning is often the first step before passivation, so contaminants and free iron are removed properly first. We can clean and then passivate in one visit, which saves you downtime.
We schedule cleaning work around your planned shutdowns and maintenance windows to reduce downtime. Tell us your shutdown dates and we will plan the cleaning so your equipment is ready when you restart.
Rouging Solutions provides industrial CIP and COP cleaning across India for stainless steel process equipment, pipelines, and vessels, glass-lined reactors including their stainless steel surfaces, epoxy coated flooring, clean room panels, non-metallic components, and polymer based surfaces. Cleaning uses citric acid based CitriSurf chemistry, which removes iron and iron oxides without NOx fumes and, in most cases, without hazardous rinse water. Cleaning is often paired with passivation and scheduled around shutdown and maintenance windows.

We support cleaning for process equipment, pipelines, vessels, and systems used in pharmaceutical, food, and industrial applications, using both CIP and COP methods.
Glass-lined reactors, epoxy coated flooring, clean room panels, non-metallic components, and polymer based surfaces. Most plants are a mix of materials, so we match the method to each surface.
Yes. We clean the glass lining with a method that suits the lining, and we clean, derouge, or passivate the stainless steel surfaces on the same reactor, so the whole unit is handled in one visit.
Yes. Cleaning is often the first step before passivation, so contaminants and free iron are removed properly.
Yes. We schedule cleaning work around planned shutdowns and maintenance windows to reduce downtime.
CitriSurf-based chemistry helps remove iron contamination while being safer and more environmentally manageable than many traditional acid systems.
