A. Hi Mohammad. I'm not sure if your writing is just too brief for me or if we are having a language difficulty, but I do not understand your question?

Are you concerned for personal safety? No chlorine gas will evolve from degreasing tanks or their rinses.

Are you concerned that too much chloride (salt) is in your incoming water for proper operation of your cleaning process?

More words please :-)

Luck & Regards,
