General info

Payback within 6-24 months after implementation

Our Infrafone cleaners (low-frequency acoustic cleaning) improves the profitability of boilers. This has been achieved thru more efficient soot cleaning in e.g. economizers, air-preheaters and catalysts (SCR’s), with a general payback time of about 6 to 24 months. Traditional soot cleaning technologies such as steam sootblowing, shot cleaning, sonic cleaning (high frequency), and manual cleaning are generally heavily reduced or eliminated in these applications.

Our range of products is the result of our unique knowledge and our customer focus. We calculate the optimal size and design of the acoustic cleaner for each customer’s particular need and the spatial possibilities of each installation.

Billerud Korsnäs Frövi Rockhammar, Frövi Sweden

A case study and results from our infrasound cleaning installation on a Recovery boiler at Billerud Korsnäs Frövi. The project motivation for Billerud Korsnäs Frövi was to keep the duct clear and eliminate the frequent water washing with resultant corrosion. Other benefits, such as elimination of steam consumption of the soot blowers, would be a bonus. An infrasound generator was installed to solve the problem.
