Research of Corrosion and Protection on Boiler and Pipelines by Condensing Water
Boiler and pipeline that using steam condensation water will be eroded when the steam condensation water absorb dissolved oxygen and carbon dioxide in the production and recycling process. In order to solve this problem, a preferably management flow and process were developed to slow down the Boiler and pipeline corrosion process by analyzing the microstructure of corrosive Boiler and pipeline with a Electrochemical method. Firstly, rinse the Boiler and pipeline with 5% citric acid at about 90 oC, after that process adding 4~6mg/L anti-filthy corrosion inhibitor to the steam condensation water and adjusting pH at 8.0~9.5 by 30% sodium hydroxide or 50% sulfuric acid. At the same time maintenance water conductivity below 1200μs/cm by discharging condensation water. This method will play an import part in managing Circulating cooling water.
