Abstract: A device and process for cleaning and decommissioning used chemical jugs or containers of any size, including an upper positioned clean water manifold which feeds a pressurized inlet fluid to a vertically downwardly arrayed elongated and spike shaped component having a sharpened lower end, the spike shape component being downwardly actuated for successively piercing at least one wall of the container. The hollow spike shaped component also includes a plurality of laterally and/or angularly positioned pressurized fluid outlets for issuing fluid evenly across the inside surface area of the jug for subsequent drainage through a pierced bottom of the jug.

Abstract: A washer assembly for cleaning used chemical containers having a sealed chamber with a hingedly attached lid. A spray tube is supported in upright extending fashion upon a pan shaped basin of the sealed chamber. A fresh fluid inlet feeds pressurized fluid flow to the spray tube for spraying an inside of the chemical container placed over the tube, such that the fluid collects upon the basin. A drain is incorporated into the basin for removing contaminated fluid from the chamber.

Abstract: A combination cleaning and disposal assembly for safely cleaning and rendering unusable a jug containing a hazardous chemical residue. A body supports a receiving chamber for receiving the jug. A manifold is supported by the body and has a plurality of spikes arrayed toward the jug. A pressurized fluid source is communicated to the manifold such that, upon an inter-displacement occurs between the manifold and the container, the spikes are caused to pierce the container, the pressurized fluid being caused to issue from the spikes to clean an interior of the container. A floor of the chamber has irregular surfaces to assist in deforming the jug during puncturing and outflow of contaminated fluid. A drain is located underneath the jug receiving chamber which collects and segregates the fluid contaminated with the chemical residue for securing disposal concurrent with removing and disposing of the cleaned and punctured jug.
