Soot Remover Powder
SOOT REMOVER POWDER is a dry powder compound, with an active blend of mineral-based salts, containing slag modifiers and carbon oxidation catalyst. This product is best suitable for safe removal of soot deposits in boiler and diesel engine exhaust systems.
Product description
Applications
To remove unburned carbon slag deposits from boiler furnaces, superheaters, economizers, air heaters and exhaust path/stacks.
Directions for use
BOILER:
- Determine the quantity of SOOT REMOVER POWDER required by quantity of fuel consumed per boiler per day.
- To do this please see the below dosage chart.
- Introduce the appropriate amount of SOOT REMOVER POWDER into the boiler, using either a portable soot blowing injector or fixed soot blowing injector.
- Ensure that the product is spread evenly throughout the flame path, towards the back of the combustion chamber.
MAIN ENGINE:
- Inject the SOOT REMOVER POWDER directly into the exhaust system upstream of the area to be treated.
- We recommend using a VECOM MARINE soot dosing system for this purpose. But if there is already a soot injector system installed, this will also work.

Features & Benefits
- Neutralises acids in the flue gas
- Reduces soot fire from occurring
- Reduces soot and slag deposits by transforming them into dry, powdery ashes that are easily removed
- Reduces cold end corrosion by neutralising sulphuric acid deposits on surfaces where the temperature is lower than the dew point of the exhaust gas
- Improves the condition of combustion gas passes in boilers burning heavy fuel oil
- Improves heat transfer
- Aids soot blowing due to reduction in deposits
- Increases boiler efficiency
- Reduces cleaning costs by decreasing maintenance and frequency of cleaning
- No need to shut down boiler or plant when dosing
