High Pressure Boiler Pipe Rust Remove

There are different methods to remove rust for the high pressure boiler pipe:

1. Cleaning

Using solvent, emulsion to clean the surface of high pressure boiler pipe so as to achieve the removal of oil, grease, dust, lubricants and similar organic matter. However, this cleaning process can not remove the high pressure boiler pipe surface rust, scale, welding flux, etc. Therefore, the cleaning process is only a adjust process for anti-corrosion processing.

2. Remove Rust by Tools
Use a wire brush and other tools for high pressure boiler pipe surface polished. It can be removed loose or tilt of the oxide scale, rust, welding slag. Hand tools rust can reach SA2 level, power tools rust can be achieved SA3 level. If the high pressure boiler pipe attached to a solid surface oxide skin, tools rust effect is not ideal. This method can not meet the anti-corrosion construction requirements.


3. Pickling
General use two methods to do chemical and electrolytic pickling. Chemical pickling applied on pipeline corrosion can descaling rust, old coatings, and sometimes used as a sand-blasting after re-processing. Although using chemical pickling can clean the surface and to reach a certain cleanliness roughness, but it is easy to pollute the environment.

4. Spray Radio Rust/Throwing Radio Rust
Spray radio rust is driven spray shot by high-power and high-speed rotating blade motor. Under the steel pipe surface spray radio processing, the grit, sheet shot, wire segments, minerals are under the centrifugal force. This process can not only completely remove rust, oxides and dirt, but also can achieve the required uniform roughness due to the influence of high pressure boiler pipe severe abrasive impact and friction force. After the spray radio rust, it can expand the physical adsorption of the steel pipe surface, but also can enhance the mechanical adhesion of the coating and the surface of the steel pipe. Therefore, spray radio rust is an ideal method for pipeline corrosion. Generally, blasting is mainly used for high pressure boiler pipe surface treatment and for the outer surface of the tube processing. Use spray radio rust should pay attention to several issues.

With the development of economy, long distance oil and gas pipeline is an very important liquid transportation method. While in the oil and gas pipeline area, the pipeline corrosion construction process is the key to ensure energy security in the oil and gas industry. For high pressure boiler pipe, the surface rust is one reasons affect the steel pipe application time. Rust removing method can ensure the quality of the steel pipe surface, based on the same equipment, rust removing can greatly improving the level of technology and reduce production costs.
