⚠️ Performance had dropped off but no-one knew whether the tubes or shell side was fouled. 2749 tubes fouled with a layer of deposit, and traditional water jetting contractors had their limitations when it comes to removing fouling from the tubes.

IRIS inspection results depend greatly on fouling levels, with tube bores required to be very close to fouling free for accurate integrity data. TubeTech removes deposits down to the bare metal, preparing heat exchanger tubes for immediate IRIS inspection. Click the link in the comments section to learn more.

🛠️ TWISTED TUBE Heat Exchanger by Koch Heat Transfer was returned to bare metal after TubeTech™ applied a unique cleaning technique to remove shell side fouling and tube side deposits that traditional methods could not. The bespoke technology travelled the full length of the cleaning lanes, removed deep blockages, and restored cleanliness where previous attempts had achieved only 20%.

Two VCFEs in the Middle East were expected to have light fouling but were found to be approximately 60% blocked after 16 years without cleaning. Using a new multi-drill system alongside simultaneous shell and tube side cleaning, TubeTech™ removed severe coke and deposit build-up across 7,712 tubes and restored the units for inspection. The project was completed within a tight timeframe using a combination of established and newly developed cleaning technologies. Click the link in the comments section to learn more.

🛠A Middle Eastern refinery required cleaning of both the shell and tube side of a TWISTED TUBE Heat Exchanger by Koch Heat Transfer after performance had deteriorated 18 months after installation.

TubeTech™ designed a new bespoke cleaning technique that travelled the full length of the cleaning lanes and channels, removed blockages, and returned the TWISTED TUBE Heat Exchanger to bare metal. Click the link in the comments to learn more.

⚠️ One significant study finding revealed the underperformance of the convection coils, which hindered the unit from achieving its desired efficiency and led to radiant inlet temperature (cross-over temperature) being way below the designed value. Over more than 20 years of operation, the convection coils, primarily consisting of finned tubes, suffered from increased fouling due to inadequate inspection and cleaning practices.

🇵🇭 A Texas Tower in the Philippines hadn’t been cleaned since 2001, with 3,186 tubes heavily fouled and access limited to a 2-inch top nozzle and side manway. TubeTech™ completed the VCFE exchanger clean in just 5 days using bespoke remote cleaning systems, removing years of sludge, scale, and blockages ahead of the shutdown deadline.
