Dry Ice Blasting in Power Generation Industry

dry ice supplier

Dry Ice cleaning is widely used in various industries especially the power generation industry due to its safety on electrical apparatus. Performance and production of equipment get increased when dry ice is used for blasting purposes. Dry ice blasting is environmental friendly as it does not produce any secondary waste. It is non-conductive and allows the worker to clean the machinery without disassembly. Thus it saves time and increases the efficiency of the equipment. It is faster and saves money too. Due to these specific reasons Dry Ice Blasting is used in the power and electric industry.

Dry ice in Dubai

Dry Ice Blast Cleaning in Dubai does not damage the stator slots, turbine blades, rotors, compressors, transformers, substations, gas turbine generators, nuclear decontamination, insulators, motor control centers, power distribution panels, and system components. Moreover it prevents catastrophic failure, increase polarization indices and improve thermal dissipation. Complete maintenance of electric power generation equipment is ensured with this type of cleaning. Also it is the most cost-effective process used by all industry professionals.

Benefits of cleaning electrical equipment by the Dry Ice Blasting Process are:

  • It is safe for the equipment
  • It is safe for the environment
  • It is safe for the employees
  • Cleaning is done in the right place
  • Gets dry on contact
  • No secondary waste is produced
  • It saves time and money
  • It reduces catastrophic failure
  • It increases polarization indices
  • It improves thermal dissipation
  • It reduces outage time for cleaning
  • It improves readings
  • No cool down
  • No disassembly of machine is required
  • It is Non-conductive and Non-abrasive
  • Limited containment setup
  • Better cleaning results
  • It access and clean tight spaces
  • It improve operational efficiency
  • It is non-abrasive
  • No damage to delicate precision components

Dry Ice blasting is a quick, effective and safe method to remove contaminants from any type of equipment. It can clean all kinds of surfaces like metal, wood, brick etc. When dirt and other debris get into the machinery parts it consume more energy making the machines to work harder. So Dry ice cleaning is a possible solution for these problems as it clean even in tight angles. In electrical components it removes dirt, grime, tar, and bitumen. It is also used to clean electrical panels, variable frequency drives, and welded components. Without damaging the cable insulation or shielding it removes dirt and debris from electrical cable trays. With no downtime it keeps electrical equipment running at peak efficiency.

Dry ice blasting in Dubai helps power generation equipment to work at optimal efficiency. Catastrophic failures such as flash overs are prevented at such situations. It can improve the performance of transformers by removing the dirt and loose paint from them. It effectively cleans the rotor blades without damaging the metal surfaces. Ancillary turbine parts can also be cleaned removing deposits and fouling buildup using this method. By using dry ice high-pressure tube wall can be cleaned and it removes corrosion and gas deposits from the tubes and fins. When the boiler wall and heating tubes are cleaned using this method it improves heat transfer and flow. Dry ice blasting also clean hydroelectric power equipment reducing risk of downtime and system failure.

One of the most vital reason for the usage of Dry Ice Blasting by various industries is the zero waste it produces. Since dry ice sublimates no waste is produced for cleaning up and no drying-time is required. Below listed are some of the specific use cases of Dry Ice Blasting in Power & Utility Industry:

  • Water turbines
  • Impulse and reaction turbines
  • Coils
  • Windings
  • Electrical Power Generation Plants
  • Fin Fans
  • Electric Motors
  • Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs)
  • Electronic Components
  • Transformers
  • Stators and Rotors
  • Gas Turbines
  • Heat Recovery Steam Generators (HRSG)
  • Cogeneration Boilers
  • Decontaminating “Semi-Hot” Cells
  • Switch gear
  • Compressors
  • Substations
  • Pipework
  • Paint removal
  • Heat exchange pipes
  • Water scaling
  • Tank cleaning

 

Gas Turbine Cleaning Services Abu Dhabi

To clean gas turbine engines high performance dry ice cleaning services are used. It is better to adopt dry ice blasting as it consumes less time and expense than any other traditional cleaning methods. It can clean Generators, Turbines, Circuit Breakers, Compressors, Insulators, boilers, Switch Gears, Transformers, Rotors, Stators, Insulators, Diaphragms, Field Frames, Windings, Economizer Fins, Substation Isolators, Bushings and more.  Through dry ice cleaning the corrosion and gas deposits from the tubes and fins can be eliminated. Since the process is moisture free it reduces downtime. The main benefit of using dry ice for cleaning in the power generation industry is that it is does not require dismantling of equipment and approximately 65% saving in outage time for cleaning is achieved. Also a thorough cleaning of the gas turbine compressor is important to ensure peak performance of the engine.
