REAGENT FOR CHEMICAL CLEANING OF MINERAL DEPOSITS COLLECTED IN STEAM BOILERS

Abstract

The correct selection of “water-chemical reagent” standards for the water treatment system of thermal power stations, the main - turbine, condensers and secondary -compressors, pumps ensures efficient operation of the devices - prevents the accumulation of mineral salts, eliminates corrosion. For each type of circulating cooling systems, an individual approach to the selection of “water-chemical reagents” is required, and this is primarily related to the material of the components in the system and the type of reagents. Adding concentrated hydrochloric acid, sulfoamines, and phosphates to the environment is considered a traditional method and does not allow complete elimination of accumulated mineral salts and corrosion. Mineral salts collected on the surface of heat exchange devices affect vacuum weakening in technological systems, including heat exchange processes, which are considered the main economic indicator of energy devices. At the same time, special attention is being paid to the determination of effective components for “water-chemical reagent” correction-circulation cooling systems, production of competitive products based on organic synthesis from available raw materials, and determination of their properties.
