Acoustic sound device for cleaning technological equipment.

The design and operating principle of acoustic cleaners produced by Primasonics International Limited (UK) and their use for cleaning cement production equipment are described. Acoustic cleaning allows, in particular, to prevent unplanned shutdowns of equipment at various stages of the process, due to material sticking and clogging of passages.
Within the framework of this study, a limited number of cement types and its main components were used. The results have to be confirmed in the course of further research.
