Abstract Polyaminoamide dendrimers (PAMAM) surface-modified with anionic terminal groups (PIY) for use as scale inhibitors were prepared with the fourth-generation PAMAM and sodium acrylate (SAA), via the Michael addition reaction. The chemical structures of PIY were determined using Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectrometry and 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra. The influence of scale inhibitor concentration, Ca2+ concentration and bath temperature on the scale inhibition efficiency was researched. The study results signified that PIY can resist calcium carbonate scale as high as 92.8%. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns showed that amorphous calcium carbonate had generated in the presence of PIY dendrimers.

In this study, ultrasonication-assisted calcium carbonate scale inhibition was investigated compared with a commercial antiscalant ATMP (amino tris(methyl phosphonic acid)). The effects of varying ultrasound amplitude, pH, and inhibition duration were evaluated. The inhibition of calcium carbonate scale formation was measured based on the concentration of calcium in the solution after subjecting to different conditions. Scale deposits were also characterized using scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction spectroscopy. Inhibition of scale formation was supported at a pH of 7 for an ultrasound amplitude of 150 W. A 94% calcium carbonate inhibition was recorded when the experiment was carried out with ultrasonication. The use of 5 mg/L ATMP achieved a 90% calcium carbonate inhibition of ATMP. The result of the characterization revealed that the morphology of the crystals was unaffected by ultrasonic irradiation. Sample treatment was performed with two different membranes to evaluate the calcium carbonate deposition, and data reveals that, at identical conditions, ultrasonication provides less deposition when compared to the control experiments.

The performance of heat exchangers and water cooling systems is mainly affected by the major problem of calcium carbonate/sulphate based scale formation. Herein present paper, we are reporting synthesis, characterization and performance of novel aspartic-co-glutamic acid based polymer system as a green antiscalant. Aspartic-co-glutamic acid based polymer was developed using aspartic acid and glutamic acid as reactants and phosphoric acid as catalyst. Effect of different operating parameters viz. temperature, molar concentration of reactants, reaction time, etc. was studied thoroughly. The as-synthesized material was characterized by various physicochemical characterization techniques including fourier transform-Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectroscopy. The scale inhibition properties of the as-synthesised product were studied with respect to calcium carbonate at various pH and temperature range. Experimental results unveil that at 200 ppm concentration, the anti-scaling property of the as-synthesized material was found to be close to that of commercial antiscalant (KT-RO).

Drainage inlets at the Namsan #3 traffic tunnel in Seoul, South Korea were found to be clogged with calcium carbonate scale deposits. Officials were concerned the clogged drains would further stress the already deteriorating traffic tunnel and wanted to see if there were any practical and economical solutions in removing or preventing scale deposits. A tunnel drainage simulator was constructed to determine the feasibility of using magnets to inhibit scale precipitation and deposition. Test results from the simulation show 6.0 and 4.4 g of deposited calcium carbonate in pipes inclined at 2° and 5° respectively, while magnetically treated water resulted in 10.8 and 4.3 g of deposited calcium carbonate in pipes inclined at 2° and 5° respectively. Calcium carbonate scale samples from the tunnel drainage test underwent x-ray diffraction analysis and showed the magnetically treated water to precipitate more aragonite. The solubility product and crystalline structures of calcite and aragonite are able to help explain tunnel drainage test results and suggest water flow velocity to be a potentially important factor in calcium scale inhibition if magnets are used.

AbstractWe report a synthesis strategy for pure hydroxyapatite (HAp) using an amorphous calcium carbonate (ACC) colloid as the starting source. Room-temperature phosphorylation and subsequent calcination produce pure HAp via intermediate amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP). The pre-calcined sample undergoes a competitive transformation from ACC to ACP and crystalline calcium carbonate. The water content, ACC concentration, Ca/P molar ratio, and pH during the phosphorylation reaction play crucial roles in the final phase of the crystalline phosphate compound. Pure HAp is formed after ACP is transformed from ACC at a low concentration (1 wt%) of ACC colloid (1.71 < Ca/P < 1.88), whereas Ca/P = 1.51 leads to pure β-tricalcium phosphate. The ACP phases are precursors for calcium phosphate compounds and may determine the final crystalline phase.

Calcium Carbonate Scale

Multiple copper-zinc alloy was used to treat water in order to restrict the formation of hard scale during heating process. Trace amounts of metal ions were dissolved from the alloy under the action of tiny battery corrosion, which took part in the crystallization of calcium carbonate crystal. The ion migration rules and its effect on the crystal structure of water scale were studied. The ICP test results show that after immersion in the water for 20 min, the zinc ion concentration increased to 0.35 mg•L-1 compared with contrast group. The simulating experiment of the scale crystal growth demonstrated that the calcium carbonate scale after treated with the alloy showed a transformation from calcite to aragonite, and the ratio of calcite to aragonite changed from 1:0.125 to 1:2.30. Meanwhile, the heat transfer efficiency was increased to 2.19%.

A copolymer was prepared from itaconic acid (IA) and sodium allysulfonate (SAS). The structure of the IA/SAS copolymer was characterized by the means of FTIR. The performances of scale inhibition, dispersion and biodegradability of the IA/SAS copolymer were studied. The results showed that the IA/SAS copolymer had good scale inhibition and dispersing performance. The scale inhibition rate on calcium carbonate was 93% when the copolymer was 20 mg·L-1. The scale inhibition rate on calcium phosphate was 92% when the copolymer was 24 mg·L-1. The copolymer had good biodegradation performance and biodegradation rate could reach 69.5% after 28 days.
