Tube cleaning of exhaust gas boilers (EGB)
Many different types of vessels have exhaust gas boilers on board. These boilers recover the heat from the exhaust gas of auxiliary diesel engines to generate steam and/or hot water, or useful heat for process heating. It is therefore very important that this system functions optimally and therefore achieves a good efficiency. The tubes of exhaust gas boilers generally become fouled quite quickly, which means they need to be cleaned frequently.
Mechanical tube cleaning with brushes and tools
Goodway Benelux offers a cleaning system that allows operators on board the vessel to clean the tubes themselves. A brush or scraper tool rotates at high speed in the tube, creating friction. This friction quickly releases the deposits on the tube wall. Mechanical cleaning of boiler tubes is always done dry, no water is used during the cleaning process. The cleaning system can be used for both light and heavy fouling. It is also possible to open clogged tubes by using special cleaning tools.
Use by (large) shipping companies
Goodway Benelux has several (large) shipping companies, such as DFDS and Hafnia, as customers that use these cleaning systems for their vessels, such as container ships and ferries. If you are interested in hearing the experience/feedback from these shipping companies, we would be happy to help you. Please contact our sales department.
