Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for cleaning a container, in particular a boiler of a conventional power plant.
- Containers especially power plant boilers, must be cleaned, especially before operating the power plant.
- Such boilers often contain fatty residues and deposits of magnetite and lime that are to be removed.
- a method for pickling metallic inner surfaces of closed vessels is known from the Austrian patent specification 281 541.
- This process consists of three process steps.
- wetting agents are introduced into the container. Before the main treatment begins, these wetting agents should degrease the surface so that they can then be directly wetted with a cleaning solution during the main treatment.
- the main treatment involves introducing a mixture of complexing acids, hydrazine and cyclic amines. A pH between 3 and 5 is set by the amines and optionally by ammonia. The main treatment therefore takes place with an acidic solution. Only for a subsequent aftertreatment is a pH between 8.5 and 10 adjusted using volatile alkalizing agents. poses.
- a thin protective magnetite layer forms on the surface of the container.
- the invention has for its object to provide a simplified method for cleaning a container with which both fat, as well as magnetite and lime can be removed from the container in a simple and inexpensive manner.
- the object is achieved according to the invention in that the container is degreased and pickled with an alkaline cleaning solution in one process step.
- the pH of the cleaning solution is, for example, 8.5 or higher. According to another example, the pH of the cleaning solution is 10 or less. A favorable pH value is therefore between 8.5 and 10. This makes good cleaning, without the risk of a base metal attack.
- the method is used, for example, at a low temperature, e.g. below 100 ° C.
- a low temperature e.g. below 100 ° C.
- Such a method is energetically favorable and is possible because it has surprisingly been found that such a low temperature is sufficient for good cleaning success.
- pickling removes magnetite deposits and lime deposits at the same time, provided magnetite and lime are present in the container at the same time. There is advantageously no need for a separate process step to remove limescale deposits.
- a solution of ammonium EDTA salt, hydrazine and surfactant is introduced into the container as a cleaning solution.
- This solution advantageously enables degreasing and pickling of the container in only one process step. No hydrofluoric acid is required.
- the cleaning solution for cleaning in one process step consists, for example, of 40% to 50% ammonium EDTA salt, 0.1% to 2% hydrazine, 0.1% to 0.5% surfactant and the rest water.
- a particularly favorable composition of the cleaning solution provides: 45% ammonium EDTA salt, 1% hydrazine, 0.1% surfactant and 53.9% water.
- ammonium EDTA salt is, for example, triammonium EDTA.
- a suitable surfactant is, for example, the surfactant sold by BASF under the trade name Plurafac. These agents result in optimal cleaning success. This applies in particular to the percentage compositions of the cleaning solution mentioned.
- the method for cleaning a container according to the invention has the particular advantage that only in one nem process step and not only without the use of dangerous hydrofluoric acid, but even with a non-acid cleaning solution, grease, lime and magnetite can be removed. Dangerous hydrofluoric acid is neither necessary, nor are complex rinsing steps to be performed. Finally, the process can be carried out at low temperature, for example below 100 ° C., in terms of energy efficiency.
