Corrosion, scaling and fouling will severely reduce the efficiency of boiler operations and compromise the associated performance of all the systems connected to the water/steam circuits. When these conditions impede heat transfer in the boilers, the operational costs quickly grow from increased fuel usage for the same production rates. Even small, thin layers of deposition cause increased costs and damage. To prevent the risks, KAS Engineering Solutions offers specific boiler water treatment programs leveraging different boiler chemicals from top manufacturers around the world including Hydrex 1000 Series from Veolia Water Technologies.

• Low – Medium – High pressure boiler chemicals for internal treatment programs
• Oxygen scavengers for feedwater treatment
• Scale and corrosion inhibitors
• Dispersants designed to condition sludge for easier removal
• Neutralizing amine treatment of boiler water to raise the protect the condensate return line
• Antifoams
• Steam line chemicals

• Optimization/restoration of boilers integrity and operating efficiency·
• Preventive solutions for constant water quality
• Safe and cost-effective operation·
• Focus on Water, energy and chemical savings

In cooling systems, corrosion problems are generally linked to aggressive water or low pH. Mineral fouling is caused by scaling water and/or high temperatures (heat exchangers), while organic fouling is generated by factors such as bacterial growth and suspended matter linked to atmospheric dust or process leaks.
To cover all these aspects and maximize cooling tower performance, our chemical solutions implement specific cooling water treatment programs. Selected by our on-site expert teams according to the specific operating conditions of your cooling systems, they include:

• Mineral scale inhibitors including: phosphorus and non-phosphorus based products.
• High-performance polymeric dispersants.
• Specialty metal corrosion inhibitors for both anodic and cathodic protection throughout the cooling water systems.
• Bio dispersants to aid in removing biofouling.
• Non-oxidizing and oxidizing biocides.
• A wide selection of cooling water system cleaning agents.
