Although often overlooked, it is important that plant systems are properly pretreated prior to service. This allows for removal of contaminants that inhibit the performance of a chemical treatment program. Pretreatment can remove oils from piping surfaces, allow loose debris to be removed, and begin initial passivisation that helps start-up of the chemical program. Without this, we often see bacterial fouling and corrosion activity along with iron contaminants.
Pretreatment Services
- Boiler boil-out products and procedures.
- Cooling water pretreatment products and procedures.
- Initial passivisation of plant piping and equipment to aid long-term treatment success.
- Specially designed start-up treatment programs to help protect zinc/galvanized surfaces such as cooling tower decks and basins.
