Metso Outotec demolition methods rely not only on commercially available demolition machines, but also on our special line of machines, tools, and methods that have been designed, developed, and refined over 35 years of demolition projects.
At Metso Outotec, our first priority is safety. We use advanced safety gear and methods to protect our people and your property. For example, Metso Outotec Versa XO2® lances cut build-up of solidified slag and metal up to five times faster than ordinary lances. We do not use blasting and explosives for demolition, which can cause collateral damage to surrounding equipment and systems, or worse.
Metso Outotec demolition experts are famous for their ability to remove furnace hearths and bottoms faster than anybody in the business. Our experienced machine operators can rapidly descale and remove refractory material without causing damage to steel shells.
Metso Outotec VersaHoe® shaft scalers and spiders are specially designed machines that fit inside reaction shafts, uptake shafts, and top submerged lance (TSL) furnaces for rapid refractory removal.
