Conventional cleaning methods to remove foulants are often as time-consuming as they are ineffectual. Worse still, they can damage process equipment and pose a variety of safety concerns. With patented and proven sonic resonance technology, Hydrokinetics can blast through conventional limitations.
Our patented Hydrokinetics cleaning technology for cleaning the ID of industrial tubulars and piping is based on the introduction of sonic resonance into the cleaning water stream. The sonic resonance safely transfers to both the tube and/or pipe and the fouling material which resonate at different frequencies thus breaking the bond between them. This process will be repeated as needed until the entire length of tube/pipe is cleaned with the Hydrokinetics tool.
In addition, we may use a projectile or plugging device to remove the film like substance from the tube or pipe wall as required. These plugging devices (similar to pipeline pigs) are made of materials that will not harm the integrity of the tube or pipe material.
