REVIEW ON CHEMICAL AND MECHANICAL CLEANING OF HEATING WATER TRANSFERRING PIPES: ANALYZING THE EFFICACY OF VARIOUS METHODS
Original language description
The maintenance of heating water transferring pipes and heat exchangers is critical in the energy sector to ensure optimal system efficiency and longevity. Over time, these systems accumulate deposits such as scale, rust, and biofilms, which impede heat transfer, increase energy consumption, and risk operational failures. This review explores various chemical and mechanical cleaning methods used to remove these deposits, focusing on hydrochloric acid, acetic acid (vinegar acid), the commercial rust remover "Antiržavin," chelating agents, and alkaline cleaners. Additionally, mechanical techniques such as pigging, hydro jetting, rotary brush cleaning, and ultrasonic cleaning are examined. Each method's mechanisms, advantages, and limitations are discussed in the context of their applications and effectiveness. The review highlights the importance of selecting appropriate cleaning strategies based on the type of deposits, material considerations, and environmental impact. It concludes with a discussion on best p
