Consulting About Steam Blowing A few days ago, we were consulted about a very interesting case that I would like to share my opinion as it would be useful for engineers involved with commissioning: Can carryovers and/or water droplets affect the target plate during steam blowing? Yes indeed. Carryovers can affect final results, specifically magnetite […]

FAC Corrosion When a steel surface is in contact with water under specific chemical and thermodynamic conditions, an oxide protective layer of magnetite (Fe3O4) is developed. Controlling the growth mechanism, the morphology and the solubility of such corrosion product it is possible to minimize the risk of failure and extend the life-time of the plant.
Kraft Recovery Boilers The Kraft process is a conversion reaction in which wood chips are digested in a batch reactor, at high alkaline water solution of NaOH and Na2S, to break up the lignin that holds the wood fibers together while obtaining almost pure cellulose, the main component of paper. The waste stream produced from
