Chemtex manufactures Descalents which dissolves, disperse or purge scales in heat exchangers & pipelines.



Heat exchangers & pipelines are an essential element in chemical industries. They are known to accumulate rust, scale & soil deposits from time to time.Descalants or Descaling Agents are chemical compounds that effectively dissolves, disperse or purge these scales, rust and soil deposits from by means of re-circulation method, fill and soak method or immersion method.


Proper Corrosion Inhibitors are added in descalants to avoid damage to system metals.After acidic descaling of system, it is important to passivate and neutralize the system with proper Passivating Agents for avoiding chances of flash rusting after descaling.


In some cases Scale Softeners and mechanical means like brushing and scrubbing of tubes is also required for heavily fouled systems.

The dosing of these chemical is a  labour oriented job & requires huge downtime.Due to this the use of alternatives such as Online Descalants and Antiscalants are getting popular.

Chemtex offers a wide range of descalants under its registered trade names of ALSTASCALE for:-

  • ·       Heat Exchanger Descaling Chemical (Condenser Descalant)
  • ·       PHE Descalant (Plate Heat Exchanger Descaling Chemical)
  • ·       RO Membrane Descalant Cleaner
  • ·       Inhibited Sulfamic Acid Boiler Descalant
  • ·       Boiler Online Sludge Conditioner Descalant

The Role and Importance of Demulsifiers in Oil and Gas Industry

  Demulsifier helps to extract oil and purify water, which is especially important in crude oil production and wastewater treatment.   It is a substance that separates an emulsion into components and destabilizes water-in-oil emulsions. In Crude production, Water-in-oil emulsions are typically produced, owing to the presence of emulsifying agents such as surfactants, slits, fine solids, drilling mud, clay, water, and other impurities. These impurities are undesirable need to be removed which would otherwise shackle the quality of the crude.   How does It work? Demulsifier consists of two liquids that are not mixed with each other and tiny droplets of one liquid are evenly distributed throughout the volume of the other. This kind of liquid is called dispersion medium, and the droplets are called dispersed phase. During the demulsification process, a demulsifier accumulates on the surface of the droplets and groups them together.   The process of separating a...

Hybrid Organic Acid Technology (HOAT) Coolant

Optimal use of machines is directly proportional to its engine performance. What an engine does is it converts the supplied energy into its mechanical form, driving the machine to work. Engines require one-third of total heat that is generated during conversion and the rest of the heat is needed to be evacuated from the combustion chamber which would otherwise lead to engine failure. Earlier, water was preferred as an ideal coolant for quite a period of time but the problem started to arise when the temperature would become extremely high or low, to be precise temperature more than 100 ° C and below 0°C. To get rid of this problem, coolants were formulated. Coolants are categorized chemicals that increases the boiling point of the fluid and decreases the freezing point of the fluid to make it suitable for use in extreme heat and freezing conditions. Coolants are a proportionate mixture of antifreeze and solvent, mainly glycol and water. Ideally utilized as a preventive in...

How RO Antiscalant works?

  Reverse Osmosis technology provides an efficient and reliable method for purifying water for various purposes). It can remove impurities such as salts, minerals, and other contaminants as well as microbial contaminants from the Membrane. Water molecules pass through RO membranes despite dissolved solids and other contaminants being rejected by the membrane. RO membranes are basically thin, dense, and semi-permeable membranes. However, the major significant challenge in Reverse Osmosis System is Scaling. Why does it happen? The formation of scales on the RO (Reverse Osmosis) membrane is primarily caused by the presence of certain dissolved minerals and salts in feed water. Scale refers to the accumulation of mineral deposits, such as calcium carbonate, calcium sulphate, and silica which can severely impact the efficiency and the lifespan of the RO membrane. RO Membrane scaling may lead to cause ·          Excessive Energy Consumption...
