PressureWave+™ cleans safely and efficiently during operation

For more than 20 years, our customers have relied on the mobile PressureWave+™ process to clean boilers safely and efficiently during operation. Our patented, proprietary technology uses targeted and controlled gas explosions to generate pressure waves that efficiently remove debris in industrial plants. The mobile PressureWave+™ cleaning system is suitable for use in boilers, steam boilers, silos, hoppers, and other exposed parts of energy production systems. Examples include waste-to-energy plants, biomass, coal and gas power plants, paper and cement plants, and other industrial sectors.

Here’s how it works

After initial evaluation, our service specialists guide a water-cooled lance with a pre-assembled special bag through the boiler door or through an inspection hatch close to the surface that is to be cleaned. There, the special bag is blown up with a combustible gas mixture and is exploded. The resulting pressure wave dissolves ash and slag deposits on walls, pipe bundles and filter systems deep into the interior of the system. The loosened debris falls into the hopper and exits via the discharge system. The PressureWave+™ process is safe for both people and equipment, and operates at temperatures up to 1200 °C.
