I have been trying to find info on soot blowing optimization. I get fed up coming to work to find that the boiler has had a full boiler sootblow ....thinking they are doing me a favour but I end up battling with superheater and reheater temps the whole shift. What signs and indications are there for selective soot blowing.
 
there aren't many short of doing a real time material and energy balance on the superheater, it can be done, but even then you have to fall back to a timed cycle as a fall back

some boilers require continuous soot blowing equipment. Does that work, well you still need to wash the car at the end of the shift.
 
We use Taber knowledge based sootblowing (KSB). It selectively runs blowers based on operating conditions. It has minimum cycle times so that blowers are run eventually even if conditions don't require them. It includes a messaging system for alerts, works very well...
