Rusty fronts: Battle for the boiler

When waste is incinerated, the chlorine it contains vaporises. The boiler functions like a distillery and condenses the corrosive chlorine compounds. The presentation briefly shows the processes involved in combustion, the formation of deposits and corrosion under the deposits. Examples from the boiler on evaporator and superheater with the materials Alloy 625, Alloy 686, Alloy 31+ are shown, as well as the comparison of cladding made of Alloy 625 welded with arc and laser.

Wear caused bei corrosion, erosion and abrasion and by their combinations

In order to combat the wear of tubes and ducts, the root causes must be correctly recognized. The article shows examples from practice.

Einfluss von Eisenaufmischung und Wärmestromdichte auf die Korrosion von Schweißplattierungen aus Nickelbasislegierungen

Die Aufmischung von Eisen wird beim Auftragschweißen als kritischer Parameter für die Korrosionsresistenz gesehen (Cladding mit Inconel). Für die Lebensdauer sind aber auch andere Einflüsse entscheidend, vor allem die Wärmestromdichte. Der Beitrag zeigt ausschließlich Beispiele aus der Praxis.

So test therefore, which joins forever

The quality of the cladding depends on how you specify it in advance and check it from the start of production.

„Stirb langsam“ – Cladding noch widerstandsfähiger machen

So wie die Korrosion in den Kesseln nicht totzukriegen ist, müssen metallische Schutzschichten noch widerstandsfähiger werden. Es werden Cladding mit Lichtbogen und Laser, Spray & Fuse Coating, Galvanische Nickel-Dickschichten und Energetic Cladding beleuchtet. Auch mancher Korrosionsmechanismus ist nicht totzukriegen, so die wieder auftretende Sauerstoffmangelkorrosion.

Influence of iron dilution and heat flux density on the corrosion of weld claddings made of nickel-based alloys

The dilution of iron is seen as a critical parameter for corrosion resistance in overlay welding (cladding with Inconel). However, other influences are also decisive for the service life, especially the heat flux density. The article exclusively shows examples from practice.

Improve boiler reliability

The reliability of a boiler can be compared to a donkey: If you put more load on it, then it has to drink and eat more, then the wear and tear increases and the service life decreases.
