Case Study SummaryThis case study examines how Apex mitigated iron and copper transport during boiler startup at a power generation facility by implementing a film-forming corrosion inhibitor program. By stabilizing metallurgy during cycling and startup conditions,...
Author Bruce Ketrick, Sr CWTThe boiler condensate return line system is the system where the selection of a program can easily result in failure. When failure occurs in the return line system, it carries over into the feed water and the boiler water system, as...
AuthorMadison AuneProper maintenance of equipment and systems during periods of inactivity is crucial to prevent damage and corrosion. By treating the system during a layup, you can prevent corrosion, avoid biofilm formation, and extend the lifespan of the equipment....
AuthorMike Bertrang – VP of SalesClosed industrial water systems are essential in various industrial applications where water is used for cooling, heating, or processing. Unlike open-loop systems, where water is continuously replenished from external sources,...
AuthorMatt LaBrosse, Ph.D.Copper and copper alloys are critical to industrial heat transfer processes due to their excellent heat transfer properties (e.g., thermal conductivity). It is often more noble and resistant to corrosion than other metals, but it still...
