Who has any good solutions for the frequent clogging of pipes in ammonia vaporization towers?
Thread Content
The ammonia water pipeline leading to the ammonia vaporization tower is constantly clogged – the section from the tee where the alkali is added to the point where the ammonia vapor enters the tower gets blocked every 2-3 days; it’s filled with a white, muddy substance. Does anyone have any good methods or suggestions? Thank you in advance
Check for any leaks, such as in the primary cooler.
This method isn’t very good; it’s available in 3-2 days. How should we proceed?
What does the leak in the primary cooler have to do with this?
If it isn’t handled properly, then it’s necessary to address the issue at its source, solve it fundamentally, and reduce blockages.
The circulating water has a high hardness (it may also be other types of water with high hardness), and when it reacts with sodium hydroxide, salts are formed that precipitate, causing blockages.
