A green solvent, terpene, derived from natural and renewable sources has been utilized as an alternative to the conventional solvents for wax remediation. Terpene is abundant in renewable sources from pine plant and orange peels (d-limonene). Terpene has low toxicity, is less flammable, is rapidly biodegradable, and has high solvency for an organic deposit comparable to aromatic solvents. Terpene is a good surfactant that is environmentally friendly. Terpene can be blended with other co- solvents. Comparatively, terpene possesses good solvency and is biodegradable, less toxic, and less flammable compared to xylene, toluene, or naphthalene.
