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.

Infrasound cleaning case studies
Renova, Göteborg Sweden
Renova Göteborg used shot cleaning in the economizer to keep the tube package clean. The customer made an evaluation of the shot cleaning and concluded it posed a major safety risk.
Stadtwerke Gießen, Gießen Germany
A case study and results from our infrasound cleaning installation on a WtE boiler at Stadtwerke Gießen. After 3 months the need for steam soot blowing was 8 times per 24 h and after 6 months 18 times per 24 h. The steam for the soot blowers is bought from the neighbouring plant operating a gas fired boiler so a reduction of the need for steam soot blowing was of great interest.
Versowood, Vierumäki Finland
Previously the boiler at versowood was stopped for manual cleaning every second month or six times per year due to that tube inlets were clogged by soot particles, leading to overstraining of the fan and increase of the flue gas outlet temperature from 150°C to 180°C.
Övik Energi, Bjästa Sweden
A case study and results from our infrasound cleaning installation on a biomass boiler at Övik Energi. From 2008-2013 the 3 MW boiler at Övik Energi was operated using 100 % pine oil pitch (tallbeckolja in Swedish). No automatic soot cleaning method was used and the boiler had to opened for manual cleaning of the smoke tubes once a month.
