Can the high-temperature products from hydrocracking be washed with water?
Thread Content
We all know that hydrogen cracking reactors are made of chromium-molybdenum steel and cannot be washed with water. Is the material used for high-temperature sections also chromium-molybdenum steel, and can it be washed with water? Have any units in other departments tried it? And why can’t chromium-molybdenum steel be washed with water?
It can be neutralized and cleaned; pay attention to water quality analysis, especially chloride ions
The focus is on chloride ions, as hydrogen-related systems generally use austenitic stainless steels such as TP321. These types of stainless steel are most susceptible to chloride ions, which can cause corrosion and lead to problems
It can be washed with demineralized water; we have done that and there was no problem
Could you please let me know which unit it is?
