🚢 Commercial Uses of Caustic Soda in the Maritime Industry
Essential for Ship Maintenance and Fuel Systems
In the global maritime industry, caustic soda (sodium hydroxide) is an indispensable chemical used for ship maintenance and fuel system cleaning. Whether your vessel runs on diesel, IFO, or bunker fuel, caustic soda ensures efficient operations, safety, and compliance at sea.
At GF Bunker Trade, we supply high-quality caustic soda in bulk — available for immediate delivery in Panama, with flexible quantities tailored to your needs.
🔧 Why Ships Need Caustic Soda
Caustic soda is commonly used aboard vessels for:
✅ Fuel Tank and Pipeline Cleaning
Bunker and IFO fuels leave heavy residues. Sodium hydroxide breaks down carbon deposits and sludge in fuel tanks and pipelines, making it ideal for bunker-fueled and diesel-powered ships.
✅ Boiler Water Treatment
Maintaining the correct pH balance in ship boilers prevents corrosion and scale buildup. Caustic soda helps maintain steam efficiency onboard commercial vessels.
✅ Bilge and Engine Room Degreasing
Its strong degreasing properties make caustic soda perfect for bilge cleaning and engine room maintenance.
✅ Onboard Wastewater Treatment
Used to neutralize wastewater pH levels, supporting compliance with international marine discharge regulations.
