Infrasound cleaning
Improve the Efficiency, Lifetime and Availability of you asset
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.

The IPCC report from August 2021 and the results from COP26, making it clear that the energy-producing industry needs to focus even more on reaching its suitability goals. We have to look for new innovative ways not yet pursued.
Statkraft, Kungsbacka, Sweden
Statkraft Kungsbacka has two 14MWth smoke tube boilers, supplying the city of Kungsbacka and surrounding areas with district heat. The boilers are in operation for the whole year, except during revision and when the need for heat can be fulfilled with only one boiler.
Ljungträ AB, Köping, Sweden
Ljungträ AB is a sawmill in Köping, Sweden, who’s main business is to saw, sell and distribute fir. The sawmill has a 3 MWth Danstoker boiler which required manual cleaning every time the flue gas temperature raised above 230-240 °C.
