BioChem Systems

BioChem Systems is a recognized leader in formulating safe solvents used in a variety of industries to remove hydrocarbons from metal. Since the day BioChem was founded in 1984, the primary focus of the company has been to replace hazardous chemicals in the workplace with safe and effective alternatives. Unlike many chemical companies that simply sell their products, BioChem serves as a resource for detailed cleaning strategies. The company has a strong presence in the tank car repair and maintenance industry where its patented VaporX® cleaning process is utilized to reduce the cleaning timeline versus traditional methods, without the necessity of placing employees in a hazardous tank car to dig, scrape, shovel and jack hammer out an oily heal. Upon entry to remove the inorganic solids, the tank car will be oil free, gas free and water wet. The Patented VaporX ® Cleaning Process for Railroad Tank Car Cleaning will: 1. Enhance safety 2. Reduce labor expenses 3. Reduce wastewater (1-2 drums on average per crude oil tank car cleaning) 4. Reduce duration of each cleaning 5. Overall, enhance bottom line margins. 6. Attract more railcar maintenance and cleaning projects based upon the ability to increase throughput.
