SootGone™ - a Unique Online Soot Cleaning System
for Industrial Boilers, Heaters and Incinerators 

SootGone™ is a detonation type of boiler cleaning system from fouling.

The main highlight of our patented technology is applying aerodynamic features of flame front instead of mechanics what makes SootGone™ system stand out.

Using the flame-front phenomenon as the operating mechanism makes it possible to generate powerful pulse waves from a low-pressure mixture of a combustible gas and ambient air. The flame front works both as a compressor and an igniter in a pulse generator which makes SootGone™ significantly less expensive and more reliable compared to other detonation type cleaning devices.

SootGone™ delivers powerful cleaning performance without compressors, high-pressure cylinders, pistons, seals, or other moving parts. This streamlined design enhances reliability, drastically reduces capital and maintenance costs, and provides the same high cleaning efficiency as conventional detonation systems—without their complexity.

The SootGone™ system can be applicable in the following areas:

  • evaporators

  • economizers 

  • superheaters 

  • air preheaters

  • ducts 

  • hoppers 

  • chimneys

INSTALLATION OF SOOT GONE SYSTEM ON THE BOILER

As well as being effective in hard-to-reach areas, the Soot Gone™ system can be used in corrosive environments. 

​ The SootGone™ system can be used for removal of the following sedimentation types:

​​

  •  ash

  • soot

  • slag 

  • cement ​

  • lime 

  • pigments 

  • additives 

  • fertilizers, etc.​

The SootGone™ system is characterized by the following attractive features:

​

  • maximal efficiency compared to the conventional steam soot blowers, rappers, air-blowers, etc.;

  • no moving parts, hence very reliable with minimal maintenance;

  • small footprint;

  • flexible, easy and cheap installation, can be installed in arduous places;

  • necessary utilities: atmospheric air and low pressure (3 Bar) fuel gas (normally Methane or LPG);

  • no need for electrical or instrumentation cables along the boiler itself;

  • no need for huge service platforms installed on the structure of steam generators;

  • minimal operation cost ;

  • user-friendly;

  • safe for the pipes, structure, refractories of the boiler and any burning equipment;

  • safe for personnel and the environment;

  • meets safety codes and standards.

Soot Gone Procedure Animation

SootGone™ System is similar to an octopus which has one head  and numerous tentacles.
 
The head of the SootGone™ is the control block (Flame Front Generator) and its tentacles are the numerous Pulse Generators that are stationary installed on the boiler.
 

The FFG is equipped with all the necessary instrumentation and can activate several pulse generators one after the other.

Filling the Pulse Generator No.1 with a gas-air  mixture provided by Front Flame Generator.

Stage 1:  Filling the Pulse Generator No.1 with a gas-air  mixture provided by Front Flame Generator.

SOOT GONE: Igniting the mixture and creating  the Flame Front.

Stage 2:  Igniting the mixture and creating  the Flame Front.
