Reviews on high energy fluid jet cleaning technologies with emphasis on applications in remanufacturing

Remanufacturing cleaning is an extremely important part in the remanufacturing process. With the expansion of remanufacturing to the field of high-end equipments and pursuing the goal of green manufacturing, high requirements for remanufacturing cleaning have been put forwards, such as low pollution emissions, environmental friendliness and in-place cleaning without residue. The high energy beam jet cleaning methods represented by high-pressure waterjet, wet ice blasting, and dry ice blasting have the characteristics of low foreign objects, low pollution emission and low processing damages, meeting the requirements of green remanufacturing cleaning. This article will review the latest technological progress of these three typical high-energy beam jet cleaning technologies in terms of jet cleaning mechanism, cleaning key technology processes, and typical application scenarios.
