DRYCLEAR.
Air-cooled Heat Exchanger - External Dry Cleaning
DRYCLEAR is an advanced dry-online cleaning solution engineered for the efficient and non-destructive cleaning of critical air-cooled heat exchangers. Using a controlled dry cleaning process, contaminants are effectively removed from finned surfaces without the use of water or abrasive high-pressure cleaning methods. The ability to clean equipment while in operation significantly reduces downtime and operational disruption, while eliminating the need for extensive access arrangements and wastewater management. By restoring heat transfer performance and maintaining clean exchanger surfaces, DRYCLEAR supports reliable operation, improved efficiency, and long-term asset performance.
DRYCLEAR
Clean Fins. Live Operations.
DRYCLEAR restores Air Cooled Heat Exchangers thermal performance while the unit remains fully operational. A controlled low-pressure cleaning method propels biodegradable sodium bicarbonate media through the air side of the bundle, removing fouling without damaging fins, motors or bearings.
Unlike conventinal high-pressure cleaning methods, DRYCLEAR enables safe online cleaning with minimal operational disruption and no plenum entry requirements.
KEY BENEFITS
Online cleaning during operation
No shutdown required – fans remain in service throughout the process.
No plenum entry required
Reduces personnel exposure and improves execution safety.
No high-pressure water usage
Elliminates risk of fin deformation, bearing contamination and motor damage.
Biodegradable cleaning media
Environmentally responsible with minimal waste handling requirements.
Restores thermal performance
Improves airflow and heat transfer efficiency on fouled bundles.
Tailored execution strategy
Cleaning approach adapted to bundle geometry, fouling profile and operating conditions.
