Boiler Water Treatment chemical addition to the boiler water, helps to control pH, prevent scale and corrosion, and dissolve other impurities to make soft formation of SLUDGE. DUBIchem Marine International is most popular Boiler Water Treatment chemical manufacturer supplier and stockist in Fujairah, Dubai, Sharjah, ajman, Abudhabi UAE.
Boiler Water Treatment Chemicals – Broad Classification
Boiler water treatment chemicals are broadly classified into the following categories, based on their function and the type of boiler system. A liquid boiler water treatment chemical product specialized and formulated with alkaline compounds, scale inhibitor, dispersant, volatile amines and many more.
1. Oxygen Scavengers : RXSOL Oxygen Scavengers: React with dissolved oxygen to prevent corrosion.
-
Prevent corrosion caused by dissolved oxygen in feedwater
-
Examples: Sodium sulfite, DEHA (Diethylhydroxylamine), Hydrazine, Carbohydrazide
2. Scale Inhibitors / Antiscalants : RXSOL Scale Inhibitors: Prevent scale formation by altering the properties of mineral deposits.
-
Prevent scale formation due to hardness (Ca²⁺, Mg²⁺)
-
Examples: Polyphosphates, Phosphonates, Polymers
3. Corrosion Inhibitors : RXSOL Corrosion Inhibitors: Protect boiler components from corrosion.
-
Protect metal surfaces (boiler tubes, feed lines) from corrosion
-
Often work by forming protective films
-
Examples: Amine-based neutralizers, Tannin, Morpholine, Cyclohexylamine
4. Alkalinity Builders / pH Boosters : RXSOL Alkalinity Builders: Maintain proper pH levels to prevent corrosion.
-
Maintain optimal alkalinity and pH to prevent acidic corrosion
-
Examples: Sodium hydroxide (Caustic soda), Sodium carbonate, Trisodium phosphate
5. Sludge Conditioners / Dispersants : RXSOL Sludge Conditioners: Help manage suspended solids and prevent sludge buildup.
-
Prevent settling and accumulation of sludge in the boiler drum
-
Keep suspended particles dispersed
-
Examples: Polyacrylate-based dispersants, Lignosulfonates
6. Condensate Line Treatment Chemicals
-
Neutralize acidic condensate and protect return lines
-
Examples: Neutralizing and filming amines (like Morpholine, Cyclohexylamine)
7. Descalants / Acid Cleaners
-
Used periodically to remove existing scale and mineral deposits
-
Examples: Hydrochloric acid blends, Sulfamic acid, Citric acid
8. Multi-Functional Treatments
-
Combine oxygen scavenger, dispersant, and alkalinity builder
-
Used in low- and medium-pressure boilers for simplified dosing
