Abstract
The operation of thermal devices and installations, in particular heat exchangers, is asso-ciated with the formation of various deposits of sediments, forming the boiler scale. Theamount of precipitate depends on the quality of the flowing liquids treatment, as well asthe intensity of the use of devices. There are both mechanical and chemical treatment meth-ods to remove these deposits. The chemical methods of boiler scale treatment include thecleaning method consisting in dissolving boiler scale inside heat devices. Worked out descal-ing concentrate contains phosphoric acid (V) and the components that inhibit corrosion,anti-foam substances, as well as anti-microbial substances as formalin, ammonium chloride,copper sulphate and zinc sulfate. Dissolution of the boiler scale results in the formation ofwastewater which can be totally utilized as raw materials in phosphoric fertilizer production.As a result, both the preparation produced and its use are entirely free from waste.
