Ultrasonic equipment for petrochemical cleaning
Ultrasonic cleaning of heat exchangers and other components in the petrochemical sector
Ultrasonic cleaning is a highly effective and efficient tool for cleaning exchangers and other components in refineries and other companies in the petrochemical sector. It is carried out by immersion in a bath applying the physical principle of thermosonication together with certain detergents to clean dirt and rust.

Heat exchangers - Petrochemical cleaning
The process of cleaning heat exchangers is a manual process that consumes many human, energy and water resources. This process is carried out with high pressure washing equipment, using very high quantities of water. The Ultrasonic cleaning process reduces labor, water and energy used, increasing the productivity of the process, achieving much shorter maintenance downtime.
Before cleaning


After cleaning


As can be seen in the images, ultrasonic cleaning by DCM Ultrasonic leaves the heat exchangers as newly manufactured with a performance close to 100% after the first cleaning.

As can be seen in the histogram, you can see the performance of a heat exchanger after several cleanings and you can see how by cleaning it with a DCM Ultrasonic machine the performance is maintained at almost 100% despite the number of cleanings. Not being the same with manual cleaning.
DCM Ultrasonic, specialists in cleaning the petrochemical sector.
Heat exchengers cleaning triggers
1. Restore heat dutyCon el tiempo, los intercambiadores de calor pueden acumular incrustaciones y incrustaciones en ambos lados del tubo y en el lado de la carcasa del tubo.
2. Inspection of exchanger
Scale and fouling in the exchanger would prevent the proper inspection application, hence cleaning will be required.
3. Advantage of downtime
During TA or unnplaned SD to take advantage of down time and enhance the exchanger performance.
4. Restore differential pressure
To be scheluded before fluid flow is obstructed inside or outside the tubes.
Thats why, the ultrasonioc cleaning method is the most efficient on the process of cleaning heat exchangers. Because ultrasonic cleaning accelerate the entire process doing it more efficient, faster and with best results.
Ultrasonic cleaning for heat exchangers
Ultrasonic cleaning techniques depends on the microjet resulted from the collapse of the formed bubbles in the bath during the rarefaction of the ultrasonic waves.The ultrasonic cleaning used successfully for cleaning plugs and trims of valves and used successfully on larger scale for cleaning heat exchanger bundle.
Sound are transmitted in longitudinal waves with compression regions and rarefaction region:
- Compression: a region ing a longitudinal (sound) wave here the particles are closest together.
- Rarefaction: a region in a longitudinal (sound) wave where the particles are furthest apart.
