The company purchased a heat exchanger with carbon steel heat exchange tubes. These tubes have never been used, but after being stored for a long time, rust has formed inside them. Is there any way to clean them?

Clean with a rust remover, then rinse with high-pressure water!

After high-pressure water cleaning, the inside of the pipe should be dried with dry compressed air.

1. Generally, it is washed with a high-pressure water gun; 2. If pickling is possible, it can be pickled
