  Industrial sectors like Automobiles, Manufacturing, Oilfields, and Processing facilities have huge involvement of metals and the most crucial problem they face is of corrosion. Heavy Industry metals are prone to acid cleaning and pickling for removal of rust, scales, stubborn dirt, stains, tough deposits from their surface. Owing to this, there remains high chances of acidic residues post cleaning, which in due course of time reacts with the metal ions, degrading them completely. The financial loss caused due to corrosion per year is estimated in the range of thousands of crores and even causing threat to environmental balance. Acid Corrosion Inhibitor prevents the corrosive reactions of acid when exposed to metal surfaces, maximizing longevity, minimizing the operational cost. It works by forming a protective layer on the metal surface, which acts as a barrier against the corrosive acids. This layer prevents direct contact between the acid and the metal, thus inhibiting the...

  Acid Corrosion Inhibitors are the most important inhibitor of any operation, preventing the impact of corrosion on exposed metal, tubular, downhole equipment, and surfaces and maximizing longevity, minimizing the operational cost. Corrosion is the chemical interaction with the environment that cause the deterioration of materials and it is unavoidable for all metals. When acids come into contact with metals, they initiate chemical reactions that lead to corrosion. Acid corrosion inhibitors work by forming a protective layer on the metal surface, which acts as a barrier against the corrosive acids. This layer prevents direct contact between the acid and the metal, thus inhibiting the corrosive process. Mechanisms of Acid Corrosion Inhibition Acid corrosion inhibitors work by forming a protective layer on the metal surface, which acts as a barrier against the corrosive acids. This layer prevents direct contact between the acid and the metal, thus inhibiting the corrosive pr...

  Industrial equipment like boilers, chillers, and condensers are important for any commercial system. To prevent heat exchangers, chillers, and condensers from scaling is important to get optimal performance. However, over time, these essential components can suffer from a build-up of scale and mineral deposits, leading to reduced performance, increased energy consumption, and even equipment failure. The numerous components enter this equipment with feed water as feed water contains dissolved solids and impurities, salts, etc. If it gets overlooked, the scale gets hardened due to continuous heating of the boiler. Characteristics of most common deposits •Carbonate deposits, large granules, and porous forms dense and uniform pitting and scaling over the surface •Sulphate deposits, crystalline, fine particles but a bit harder and denser than a regular carbonate deposit •Hard and not so easy to remove silica deposits, extremely small, forms a dense and impervious scaling •...

  Reverse Osmosis System is a revolutionary invention to treat water and provide an effective solution for purifying water in various applications. The performance of RO can be ensured by the formation of scale and deposits on the membranes, leading to reduced efficiency and increased operational costs.   To prevent this issue, antiscalant chemicals play an important role in reducing the formation of scale and maintaining optimal RO Plant performance. Reverse Osmosis is widely used in various industries to treat water and to remove impurities such as salts, minerals, and other contaminants. The dense, thin, and semi-permeable layer allows water molecules to pass through while rejecting dissolved solids, and other impurities such as salts, minerals, and other contaminants. But the major issue that surfaces in such systems is the formation of scales due to the build-up of dissolved minerals and salts on the surface of the RO Membrane. RO Antiscalant Chemicals – Cost-effecti...

  What is EDTA? EDTA or ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid is a weak acid used as a chelating agent. Ethylenediamine tetra acetic acid (EDTA) contains an amino carboxylic group with the formula C 10 H 16 N 2 O 8. The chelating agent EDTA is a compound of massive use worldwide with household and industrial applications, being one of the anthropogenic compounds with the ability to sequester various polyvalent cations, used to minimize metal contaminants and facilitate enzymatic reactions that could be inhibited by heavy metal traces.  EDTA is the most widely used chelating agent for the removal of toxic heavy metal ions in wastewater treatment. How does EDTA Work? EDTA is prepared from the compound Ethylenediamine and Monochloroacetic acid. EDTA grabs metallic cations such as lead or calcium from the process and forms a stable compound that is then excreted from the system. If the bond is weak, other chemicals can break this bond to form their own compounds. EDTA is the most ...
