Advantages
The main advantages of sonic soot blowers over other soot blowers are:
• Elimination of opacity spikes due to more regular, more efficient cleaning
• No structural damage to tube bundles or boiler structure
• Elimination of tube corrosion and erosion problems
• 360°cleaning of all tube surfaces – not harsh leading edge tube cleaning as with steam soot blowers
• Prevention of ash build up and sintering on steam tubes due to sonic soot blowers regular operation
• Extremely low maintenance or operational costs
• Eco-friendly – helps to combat global climate change and the effect of global warming
