HydrexTM Chemical Service Program Restores Pipe Condition, Prevents Corrosion, and Mitigates Scaling

PROJECT: Sulfuric Acid Plant 
LOCATION: United States

Challenge:

A Sulfuric Acid recovery plant was experiencing severe corrosion in their plant water supply piping. Two 2” galvanized supply lines feeding their production process were almost completely plugged, preventing water flow to the plant. The client was planning to perform a $1,000,000 CAPEX project to replace the failing infrastructure. Veolia was contacted by the client to see if there was a chemical services program that could mitigate the issue.

Solution:

After performing a comprehensive facility audit, a pilot test on sacrificial sections of the corroded and plugged piping, Veolia found that a 20% solution of Hydrex 2978 which was circulated through the piping for approximately 30 hours was an effective solution to restore the pipe's condition. After the pilot, a full-scale program was installed at the customer site.

Results:

  • Heat exchanger water flow and efficiency restored
  • $1M Capital equipment replacement eliminated
  • Long-Term Prevention of Corrosion and Scaling
