Within the framework of a routine maintenance programme and with the aim of restoring an appropriate heat exchange for this kind of equipment, CTP environnement suggested cleaning the finned tubes using its Decamex® process.

Developed in partnership with numerous clients to best meet their needs, this process has proven significant gains to the performance of the units with yields of above 15 % compared with conventional cleaning. These gains have been confirmed by airspeed checks conducted by our clients’ process engineers.
