Fired Heater Furnace Convection Section Fouling Removal

Improving Heat Transfer Efficiency of Fired Heater and Furnace Convection Sections using innovative techniques

The Only Technology Guaranteed to Achieve 90%+ Fouling Removal

Tube Tech’s fired heater/furnace convection section fouling removal service is recognised by world leading refining and petrochemical companies as the most effective technology to achieve OEM performance fired heaters.

Fired heaters are often difficult to remove fouling from as most fired heater fouling removal methods are only able to reach what the operator can see. Access deep inside and between the banks of finned tube rows has never been achieved until now.

Tube Tech’s fired heater furnace fouling removal service helps improve fired heater performance by significantly increasing feed throughput, and reducing stack temperatures and CO2 and NOx emissions.

Using robotic cleaning technology, we remove fouling from deep in between both square and triangular pitch rows of convection tubes. Delivering an unprecedented level of heat transfer efficiency in record times, Tube Tech’s robotic fired heater fouling removal technology replaces traditional fired heater cleaning techniques which include: chemical cleaning, abrasive shot blasting and dry ice.

Testimonial

The service they provide, in my opinion, is second to none. Technically and technologically Tube Tech’s knowledge surpasses any company I have personally come into contact with that supply this kind of service.

To stay ‘ahead of the game’ Tube Tech invest well in the latest technology to be able to supply a service which, to the refiner, is more cost effective as the equipment they use is better than the competition’s at providing the desired results.

I have personally used Tube Tech over many years on long term contracts for both hands on cleaning and consultation services and find them efficient, reliable and knowledgeable.
