Condensate pH of the turbine
Thread Content
In our plant, the turbine is experiencing ph 7.2 in the condensate due to a leak in the waste heat exchanger. Will this cause corrosion of the turbine blades? What is the appropriate value for pH control? Are there standards? Thanks
Slightly alkaline, does not cause corrosion; it’s still best to address the leaks at an appropriate time
The normal pH range is 7.5–8.5
