Heat ExchangersHeat Exchangers
The oil and gas industry uses heat exchangers for varied applications such as oil
stabilization, gas compression, waste water treatment,, gas desulphurization,
crude oil desalting and closed loop cooling

Fouling is a significant problem with heat exchangers. Fouling occurs when
impurities or scale accumulates on heat exchanger elements, reducing the
effective surface area and thus low efficiency.

High Pressure CleaningHigh Pressure Cleaning
Cleaning of Heat Exchangers has been painstaking and expensive task.
Conventional high pressure cleaning can use in excess of 20,000 gallons of water
per exchanger and this waste water requires treatment.

Ultrasonic CleaningUltrasonic Cleaning –– Thickness modeThickness mode
Ultrasonic cleaning particularly with thickness mode ultrasonic transducers provides a much
more efficient way to clean heat exchangers. Sound wave implosions, called cavitation that
separates the contaminant from the surface without damaging a component.

Cumulative effect of millions of continuous tiny implosions in a
liquid medium, provides the necessary mechanical energy to
break up the physically & chemically bonded contaminants.

AdvantagesAdvantages
• Effectively removes all forms of hydrocarbon contamination and
refinery-grade by-products from any surface compared to conventional
cleaning processes.
• Able to clean components and equipment once deemed not cleanable.
• Cleaning process can be done in a fraction of the time required by
conventional methods.
• Conventional high pressure cleaning can use in excess of 20,000 gallons
of water per exchanger and requires waste water treatment. The waste
ultrasonic produces is contained in a tank and changed out only every
few months, a very environmental friendly approach.
• Water usage in ultrasonic cleaning is greatly reduced.
• No surface damaged.
• Ultrasonic cleaning reduces safety concern compared to high pressure
cleaning method.
