dears:

we Have a 24" ball valve passing, I heard that there is a technique called " online flushing", in which a special chemicals are used to clean the valve from deposits, could any one provide more details? or provide any reference websites?
 
Dear Khalid

Valve having injection fittings or Valve body vent/drain can be subjected to online chemical flushing, Chemical cleaning and if still haven't got bubble tight seal or if you need immediate results, can go for online sealing(temporary- i.e till u operate the valve next time).

In the absence of injection fittings or body vent/drain, as per wt i have heard, you will have to hot tap and install a fitting.

For your reference you can visit They are one of the reputed online valve service providers.
