Boiler Cleaning
Optimizing Boiler Performance and Longevity Through Professional Cleaning
AEKS provides specialized boiler cleaning services designed to enhance the efficiency, safety, and lifespan of industrial steam and hot water boilers. Our services cater to various industries, including power generation(HRSG, Coal-fired, Gas and Biomass), Oil&Gas, pharmaceuticals, food & beverage, and maritime sectors.
Importance of Boiler Cleaning:
Over time, boilers accumulate deposits such as scale, rust, and other contaminants that can:
- Reduce thermal efficiency, leading to increased fuel consumption
- Cause overheating and potential tube failures
- Result in imbalanced steam production and compromised steam quality
- Lead to costly downtime and maintenance issues
Regular and thorough cleaning of both the water and steam sides of boilers is crucial to maintain optimal performance and prevent such issues.
AEKS's Boiler Cleaning Services:
- Pre-Commissioning Cleaning: Prior to commissioning, we perform chemical cleaning to remove mill scale, welding residues, and other construction-related contaminants, ensuring the boiler operates efficiently from the start.
- Post-Commissioning (Maintenance) Cleaning: During the operational phase, periodic cleaning is conducted to remove scale buildup and other deposits that accumulate over time, thereby maintaining efficiency and preventing unexpected failures.
- Chemical Cleaning Methods: Depending on the boiler's condition and the nature of the deposits, we employ various chemical cleaning methods, including:
- Steam Blowing: Following chemical cleaning, steam blowing is performed to remove any loose particles, ensuring the purity of the steam and preventing damage to turbine blades and other downstream equipment.
- Preservation Services: After cleaning, we offer preservation treatments to protect the boiler's internal surfaces from corrosion during storage or downtime.
Supporting Services:
- Heat exchanger and economizer cleaning
- Steam trap and condensate line flushing
- High-pressure water jetting for mechanically removing heavy deposits or carbonized buildup in fire-tube or water-tube boilers
Deliverables:
- Comprehensive cleaning plans tailored to the specific boiler type and operational requirements
- Execution by experienced professionals adhering to strict safety and environmental protocols
- Detailed reports documenting the cleaning process, findings, and recommendations
- Certificates of cleanliness and compliance with relevant industry standards
