Gradually lifts existing scale, prevents the formation of new deposits, and improves the condition of the system’s internal surfaces.
Aquafilm-V’s film-forming agents protect the entire steam network against corrosion by forming a protective film on the metal surfaces. This protection extends from the feedwater tank, to the boilers and condensate return lines. Neutralizing amines are not film-forming and their role is to simply neutralize carbon dioxide (CO2) to prevent acid corrosion in the condensate; this function is limited and therefore does not protect the entire network.
The protective film is of molecular size and has no negative effect on the energy transfer in a boiler. In fact, the heat transfer coefficients observed are higher for the tubes treated with film-forming agents than for those treated with conventional techniques.
Several factors impact the energy performance improvement of the steam system. Improved heat transfer and purge reduction significantly influence energy consumption.
If the purge is controlled to maintain the same level of conductivity in the boiler as with conventional treatment, the anticipated purge reduction typically ranges from 20% to 50% of the volume prior to the application of Aquafilm-V.
The technology is compatible with conventional treatment products. The sulfite concentration must not exceed 50 ppm at the time of Aquafilm-V’s application.
This is not recommended. Most scale deposits may be dislodged by treatment, but debris released may cause localized fouling that can lead to overheating and tube breakage. It is therefore recommended to clean the boiler, mainly with water tubes, before applying the Aquafilm-V treatment.
Aquafilm-V products must be injected with an electromagnetic diaphragm metering pump made of Teflon and EPDM with Teflon seals. This pump must be connected and controlled by a device to measure the flow of makeup water.
