On-line and off-line explosive deslagging

For decades, Graycor Blasting Company has used explosives for deslagging, cleaning and opening clogged areas for the power generation industry. With our expertise, we are able to perform explosives work both on- and off-line, depending on boiler conditions and access to problem areas.

Highly technical on-line explosive cleaning services have become increasingly valuable in recent years, due to the reduced outage schedules and need for uninterrupted power in the U.S. It’s the most effective and economical way to avoid lost megawatt production caused by excessive slag buildup.

We have a proven track record with this extremely sophisticated service, helping to avoid slag-fall damage, improve airflow and keep flue gas emissions under control. Explosive deslagging is used for the following:

• Fire box
• Reheat and superheat pendants
• Backpasses/economizers
• Slag tank throat/lower slope

Hydroblasting and industrial vacuum services

Hydroblasting is a cost-efficient way to clean both the interior and exterior of almost any industrial surface, including piping, storage vessels, walls and tanks. We believe the most effective method in most hydroblasting situations is to use only water, eliminating the need for additional chemicals.

We also provide expert services for removal of industrial material buildup utilizing powerful and highly efficient vacuum trucks.
