They Use EXPLOSIVES to Clean This Boiler

[00:00:00]This worker just inserted explosives deep inside a boiler. Like, why would you blow up the inside of a giant furnace? Well, waste to energy plants burn trash to make electricity. But over time, the ash turns into rockh hard slag that coats the boiler tubes. This slag acts like an insulator, blocking heat transfer and forcing shutdowns. Manual cleaning takes weeks and only removes 30% of the buildup. So, they use small explosive charges instead. The shock wave travels faster than sound, shattering the brittle slag without damaging the steel tubes. One blast cleans an entire section in just 4 hours.
