Thermochem - Chemical Process Treatment Equipment- Brochure

Scaling and corrosion is a common and costly problem for geothermal operations. Scale can accumulate in wellbores, gathering systems, in the plant and reinjection pipelines, derating generation and causing regular plant shut-downs. Corrosive fluids damage equipment and present significant safety issues, from well blowouts, burst pipelines to turbine failures. With the correct process design and chemical treatment, corrosion and scale problems can be effectively mitigated. Often this can be done with inexpensive commodity chemicals rather than high-priced proprietary inhibitors.
