Scale Formation, Corrosion Product Deposition, and Enhanced Water Degassing in Thermal Power Plant Heat Transfer Systems: Mechanisms, Kinetics, and a Novel Iron-Scrap Deaerator Modification
The major factors contributing to reduced efficiency and early failure of thermal power plant (TPP) equipment are scaling and corrosion product deposits on heat transfer surfaces. A mechanistic, thermodynamic, and kinetic analysis of scaling and corrosion processes will be presented, as well as an experimental demons...
