The invention provides a cleaning method of a boiler. The cleaning method comprises the steps of impurity removing, flushing, soda boiling, flushing, acid pickling, acid liquor jacking and draining and water flushing, rinsing and passivating. According to the cleaning method of the boiler, a soda boiling solution is utilized to react with oil stain on the inner wall of the boiler, the oil stain isthoroughly removed, the soda boiling solution does not contain inorganic phosphate, and the dirt discharge amount is reduced; acid is utilized to react with incrustation, copper scale and iron rust on the inner wall of the boiler in the acid pickling process, the incrustation and the iron rust on the inner walls of the boiler and a pipeline are dissolved, polyaspartic acid in an acid pickling solution has a good scale inhibition capability, and calcium salt can be effectively prevented from being generated; and etidronic acid has a dispersion effect, calcium and magnesium ions in water can bestabilized, on one hand, a corrosion inhibitor can effectively disperse and inhibit the scale, on the other hand, impurities are not introduced into a boiler system, and the dirt discharge amount ofboiler cleaning is reduced. According to the cleaning method of the boiler, a passivation solution is an organic passivation solution, chemical reaction can be generated on the passivation solution and the inner wall of the boiler to generate a passivating film, no ammonium ion is generated, and ammonia corrosion is prevented from being generated to the boiler.
