Valves were sent to an outside vendor to clean using the Supercritical CO2 method.
SUBSTRATE MATERIAL: Stainless Steel (Supplied from client)
CONTAMINANTS: Salts, corrosive deposits
The method selected proved to be an inadequate means for cleaning the parts. In fact, the method caused the valve to become more contaminated.
Using Supercritical CO2 extraction to clean the valves would not be an effective method and should not be considered.
