gas tips clogging problem

[pekos]

am a maintenance engineer in refining industry.
we have difficulties with fuel gas tips (furnaces) getting glogged
Is there any procedure to clean the gas pipe (since the dirt is getting from pipe deposits)?
would strainers on lines be helpful??
thank you

Do you know what is clogging the tips? Traces of liquids in fuel gas can coke in burner tips. If that was the cause, strainers aren't going to help.

Strainers would only solve the problem if the strainers opening is smaller than the solids that are plugging your tips.

thank u 4 replying TD2K
actually I dont know what ' s clogging in gas tips, maybe with further investigation I will know
cant strainer catch traces of liquids, it must be some type of strainer that does the job, no??
I think that part of the problem is deposit in the feed branches pipes, so am looking for solutions to clean them whenever un overhaul is planned.
but you are right process is to be considered to solve the problem, I theink i have to go through analysing some samples...
