Scale and corrosion control with combined dolomite/calcite filter.
Water quality is a major operational issue for boiler operation and control. If the water is hard scale control is required and if it is soft then corrosion control is an issue. Here a two stream boiler test rig has been used to test the effect a fixed bed filter has on the scaling and corrosion properties of both hard and soft waters. The filter effectively controlled the pH, hardness and alkalinity of both waters leading to significant decreases in scale formation and effective control of corrosion.
