Boiler and Piping Solutions

Importance of Proper Cleaning for Safe and Efficient Operation

Proper cleaning of boiler and piping solutions, including oil/steam piping and water systems in boilers. This is essential for ensuring efficient and safe operation. Over time, these systems can accumulate deposits and contaminants, which can result in decreased performance, increased energy costs, and even equipment failure. 

Chemical technical cleaning by circulation with appropriate chemicals is a proven method. This method ensures the effective removal of these deposits and contaminants. This process involves circulating specialised cleaning chemicals through the piping systems and boilers. Resulting in the breakdown and removal of any build-up.

Importance of Removing Protective Layers for New Piping and Plates

New piping and plates are often coated with protective layers such as Japanese Black or mill  scale. This is being used to prevent corrosion during storage and transportation. However, these protective layers must be removed before installation to prevent impurities from causing contamination or damage to for instance hydraulic valves or pumps.

Chemical technical cleaning is a highly effective method for removing these protective layers and any other impurities that may have accumulated during storage or transportation. This process involves the circulation of specialized chemicals through the piping and plates to break down and remove any build-up. This is one of the boiler and piping solutions Inox offers.

Necessity of Chemical and Technical Cleaning for Ships In Service

Chemical-Technical cleaning of steam systems and boilers is often necessary due to pollution caused by scale, cargo, and oil. This pollution can result in low heat transfer, leakages in the piping system, and even a high risk of explosion in the worst-case scenario.


To prevent these issues, it is crucial to regularly clean steam systems and boilers to remove any build-up or contaminants. Chemical-Technical cleaning is a highly effective method for removing scale, cargo, and oil from these systems.
