A ball circulation pump skid includes a piping manifold mounted to a base frame, having a first inlet and a first outlet each connected to a pump, and provided with a second inlet and a second outlet connectable to an external device. The manifold houses a ball collection capsule configured to permit flow of fluid and entrained cleaning balls into the ball collection capsule in a first flow direction and to permit flow of fluid and entrained cleaning balls out of the ball collection capsule in a second flow direction. Valves mounted to the piping manifold are operative to create alternately a first fluid flow path and a second fluid flow path through the piping manifold, to capture the cleaning balls in the collection capsule prior to fluid flow to the pump and to re-entrain the cleaning balls prior to fluid delivery to the external device.

An apparatus for treating an interior surface of a workpiece comprising at least three nozzles ejecting treating material, with a first one and a second one ejecting the treating material substantially along first and second collinear lines. A third one of the nozzles ejects the treating material substantially along a third line substantially perpendicular to the first and second lines. The treating material ejected from the first one intersects with the treating material ejected from the second one at a first intersection area to radially deflect to form a first radial spray. The treating material ejected from the third one intersects with the first radial spray at a second intersection area to form a second radial spray of treating material. The interior surface of the workpiece adjacent the second intersection area is treated with the treating material of the second radial spray.

A cleaning ball with a naturally derived material bonded to a surface of the cleaning ball for a condenser in a power plant is capable of performing efficient cleaning, and even if the material bonded to the surface of the ball is discharged to the ocean, the material does not cause damages to a marine environment. The cleaning ball includes a sponge rubber ball configured to deform and clean a heat transfer tube of the condenser; and a skin layer including crushed sand bonded to a surface of the sponge rubber ball. The crushed sand comprises sandstone containing granite particles, and the crushed sand has a particle size between 0.05 mm and 2.00 mm, and the skin layer is formed in concave and convex shapes on a non-deformed shape of the sponge rubber ball, and is configured to deform corresponding to deformation of the sponge rubber ball.
