WHRU - Waste Heat Recovery Unit Cleaning

WHRU - Waste Heat Recovery Unit Cleaning

The traditional approach to cleaning severely blocked WHRU’s often involves:-

  • Bypassing the fouled unit - results in higher operating costs
  • Doing nothing and accepting the increasingly inefficient burning of fuel
  • Removing/cutting off the bends to allow straight access to all tubes for cleaning - not only time-consuming¸ but sufficient access for welding cannot be guaranteed and is in any case best avoided in-situ
  • Replacing the complete unit - not only expensive, but also entails a six-month manufacturing lead time.

Tube Tech International has developed unique cleaning technologies which:-

  • Clean WHRU’s in-situ
  • Keep waste volume to a minimum
  • Consider safety and environmental factors
  • Custom designed to negotiate multiple bends
  • Cleaning is completed faster than traditional methods
  • Include a complete internal tube inspection all tubes/pipes including coiled

Tube Tech has extensive specialised experience in unblocking, descaling and cleaning the difficult bends that are peculiar to WHRUs in the oil and gas industry. Tube Tech teams have successfully cleaned a number of WHRU's in the past at competitive cost. Tube Tech’s methods do not involve cutting nor removal of any U-bends and the company develops specialised systems to solve access problems often encountered when cleaning WHRU.
