Phosphate Production

Nalco Water Scale-Guard™

Scale-Guard Helps Phosphoric Acid Plant Increase Annual Production by 54%

En las operaciones de procesamiento de fosfato, las incrustaciones de sulfato de calcio son un costo diario en las actividades de la empresa. The scale results in lost evaporator efficiency, lost production time due to cleanings, increased cleaning-related expenses and cleaning-related safety challenges. 

Nalco Water se asoció con una planta de ácido fosfórico estadounidense para reducir la acumulación de incrustaciones. Al implementar SCALE-GUARD EP310, Nalco Water ayudó a la planta a aumentar un 54 % la producción anual, así como una reducción del tiempo y la intensidad de la limpieza.
