Hydrocarbon-based vapor suppressants have a flash point. Foams knock vapor down for a while and then break. Hasten Cleanse is a water-based chemistry that bonds to the hydrocarbon itself, raises its flash point, and slows vaporization for as long as it is in contact, on a tank floor, a spill on concrete, a vessel wall, or a pipeline section before hot work.

Flammable vapor comes off the liquid hydrocarbon left in a tank. Ventilation dilutes the vapor. Hasten Cleanse goes after the source.
Surfactants and fatty acids attach to the residue and the free product on walls, floor, and in sludge.
Bound hydrocarbon vaporizes more slowly. Less vapor is generated in the first place, so LEL and VOC readings fall rather than being blown out.
The same wash that suppresses vapor lifts the residue into a water suspension for the vac truck. Cleaning and degassing happen together.
Water-based, no flash point. Nothing in the tank got more dangerous because of the product.
Lower readings during the wash, faster clearance under your permit procedure.
Pipelines and vessels before cutting or welding.
Knock down vapor on a fresh spill on concrete, soil, or water, then lift the product.
Customers report H2S readings dropping alongside LEL and VOC. Measure it yourself at the demo.
It is not a solvent and not a caustic. It will not dissolve, melt, or strip material that is physically bonded or baked onto a surface, scale, rust, hardened deposits, coatings. It lifts hydrocarbons, oil, grease, crude, sludge, and paraffin, by emulsifying them, and it needs agitation, circulation, pressure, or heat to do that work. If your problem is a stuck-on solid rather than a hydrocarbon film or residue, tell us and we will say so.
Most searches for a vapor suppression chemical are looking for a crew, not a chemical. Hasten Cleanse is the chemical that crew uses. We supply tank cleaning contractors, refinery turnaround crews, vapor control vendors, and plant maintenance departments across the Gulf Coast, and we ship the same concentrate to operators who run their own entry program.
Entry permits wait on LEL, benzene, and H2S readings. A water-based vapor suppressant that bonds to the hydrocarbon lets the readings fall without steaming the vessel for days. Turnaround planners order by the tote and stage it at the unit before the outage.
Transport tanks that switch products or go in for repair need the vapor knocked down before hot work. A 1 to 20 solution sprayed or circulated through the tank does it without a flammable solvent in the truck bay.
Pigging, flushing, and vessel entry all end with the same question, what are the readings. Hasten Cleanse goes in with the flush water and leaves a non-hazardous rinse that can go to the wastewater system.
Crews that clean crude, product, slop, and produced water tanks add Hasten Cleanse to their circulation or spray water so the vapor space comes down while the residue lifts. One product covers the degassing step and the cleaning step, which is why contractors carry it in totes rather than two separate chemicals.
Call us anyway. We work with degassing and tank cleaning contractors throughout the Gulf Coast and can point you to one that already runs Hasten Cleanse, which means the readings on your permit come down the way they do on every job that uses it. If you already have a contractor, send them to this page. The product is sold as a full concentrate so their price per working gallon stays low.
Standard freight from Houston, same-day pickup for emergencies.
No. It is a liquid concentrate diluted in water and applied by spray, circulation, or foam generator if you prefer foam application.
No. Water-based and non-flammable.
As long as the product is in contact with the hydrocarbon. It bonds rather than blanketing.
No. Test, permit, and enter under your procedure. The product lowers the readings; it does not certify them.
Yes. Dilute and spray. It suppresses vapor and lifts the hydrocarbon for recovery.
