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
Kraftvärmeverket Block 6, Västerås Sweden
Boiler 6 at Kraftvärmeverket in Västerås is today the world’s largest WtE boiler. The fuel consists of sorted waste (RDF) imported from Great Britain. Content of glass and aluminium is relatively high. The boiler is base load at the plant and cheapest production line so priority is high.
TPK-EPO, Sevnica Slovenia
A case study and results from our infrasound cleaning installation on a biomass boiler at TPK EPO. Before the installation of the Infrasound generators at TPK-EPO, the multi cyclone and the fintubed economizer were cleaned every 6-8 weeks due to increasing flue gas dP. The economizer is also cleaned with steam soot blowers. After the installation the eco and multi cylone are cleaned once per year.
HEW Tiefstack, Hamburg Germany
Initially there were 4 layers in the catalysts at HEW Tiefstack. No soot cleaning equipment was installed from the beginning, since the boiler manufacturer Steinmüller was convinced, that by guiding the flue gas in parallel, the cat stones would not become dirty. The catalyst reactor was also built by Steinmüller.
Värtaverket, Stockholm Sweden
A case study and results from our infrasound cleaning installation at Värtaverket, Stockholm. The purpose of installing the infrasound generator on Värtaverket was to remove ashes stuck on the inner walls of the silo.
