Boiler Water Treatment

CESTCHEM 2348

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
CESTCHEM 2348 is a concentrated blend of liquid phosphate. The phosphate is used to remove calcium hardness in feed water and boiler water by precipitating it as desired sludge. The desired sludge is dispersed in boiler water by other polymer program to prevent it from adhering to the metal surfaces. Blow down removes the desired sludges.

PRODUCT APPLICATION
CESTCHEM 2348 can be fed continuously as neat or diluted solution to the preboiler section through a chemical fed pump.
