Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for providing corrosion protection to a water-steam circuit having both internal surfaces made of aluminium or aluminium alloy and internal surfaces made of steel.
  • aluminium and aluminium alloys in the construction of power plants, in particular in the construction of water-steam-circuits (hereinafter WSC), is gaining in importance.
  • WSC water-steam-circuits
  • aluminium and aluminium alloys are increasingly used in the construction of tubes in air cooled condensers such as Heller towers and jet spray coolers.
  • the use of aluminium and aluminium alloys offers both construction and economic benefits.
  • aluminium and aluminium alloys are more sensitive to corrosion than steel or non-ferrous metals which are commonly used in the construction of components of WSC. Therefore, the means conventionally taken for corrosion protection of conventional WSC constructed of steel cannot be transferred one to one to WSC having components made of aluminium or aluminium alloys. In fact, the means for corrosion protection have to be adequately adapted in order to meet the requirements of aluminium and aluminium alloys. What is more, corrosion products of aluminium may distribute in the WSC and form deposits on the turbine blades. Further complicating the matter is the fact that other components of water-steam-circuits such as boilers may still require to be made of steel for construction reasons, which have other requirement with regard to the optimum corrosion protection.
  • Aluminium is an amphoteric metal.
  • International standards such as standards of the International Association for the Properties of Water and Steam (IAPWS) require that WSC having components made of aluminium or aluminium alloys are operated at pH levels of approximately pH 8.0, e.g. in the range of pH 7.7 to 8.0 (see IAPWS Technical Guidance Document 3 10(2015)).
  • WSC corrosion protection is usually achieved by oxygen treatment (OT) at these pH levels. While oxygen treatment at pH 8.0 and a stationary oxygen concentration of about 50 ppb may provide sufficient protection of both the aluminium and the steel components of WSC during continuous operation, steel components will suffer corrosion under these conditions during shutdown or cycling mode operation, because it is not possible to achieve a stationary oxygen concentration under these conditions.
  • WSC made of steel components are usually subjected to an all-volatile treatment (AVT) at elevated pH level, e.g. at pH of above pH 8.7, preferably at least pH 9.2 and up to 10, according to the VGB guideline VGB-S-010-T00 or IAPWS Technical Guidance Document 3 10(2015), in order to avoid corrosion of the steel surfaces, especially when the plant, and thus the WSC, is operated in cycling mode.
  • AVT all-volatile treatment
  • VGB-S-116-00-2016-04-EN “Conservation of Power Plants” recommends an AVT treatment at elevated pH of 9.2 - 9.5 prior to a wet conservation. Following this regime under cycling mode conditions would mean a frequent change of operating modes which would be extremely difficult to realize, if possible at all.
  • cycling mode i.e. discontinuous operation with frequent short-term stand-by periods (off periods)
  • the WSC will lead to difficult challenges for plant operators, because every time the WSC is turned off and on, the boiler, steam lines, turbine and auxiliary components go through unavoidably large thermal and pressure stresses, which may cause damage.
  • the WSC comprises both components made of steel and components made of aluminium, in particular because of the different demands of aluminium components and the steel components to the quality of the circulating water.
  • Film forming amines have been suggested as feed water additives for providing improved corrosion protection of WSC made of steel or copper components.
  • Film forming amines i.e. long chain alkyl fatty amines and long chain oligoalkylamine fatty amines adsorb to the interior surfaces of WSC components and form a tight protective barrier against corrosive agents.
  • film forming amines sharply increase the protection of aluminium against corrosion at elevated pH levels of at least pH 8.8, e.g. at pH 8.8 to pH 10, in particular at least pH 9.0, e.g. pH 9.0 to 9.6, which is similar to the protection level at neutral or almost neutral pH of approximately pH 8.0.
  • pH 8.8 e.g. at pH 8.8 to pH 10
  • pH 9.0 e.g. pH 9.0 to 9.6
  • the steel parts are almost inert to corrosion because of an insoluble magnetite layer formed on the surface of the internal steel parts.
  • no noticeable transport of aluminium is observed under these conditions.
  • the present invention relates to a method for providing corrosion protection to a water-steam circuit having both internal surfaces made of aluminium or aluminium alloy and internal surfaces made of steel, which method comprises operating the water-steam circuit with water having a pH value, measured at 22°C, in the range of pH 8.8 to 10.0, in particular in the range of pH 9.0 to 9.6, especially in the range of pH 9.2 to 9.6 and containing a film forming amine.
  • the method allows for efficient prevention or reduction of corrosion of the internal surfaces of components made of aluminium or aluminium alloy under conditions which are also beneficial for the corrosion protection of the internal surfaces of components made of steel. Therefore, the method of the present invention facilitates corrosion protection of water-steam circuits containing both components made of steel and components made of aluminium or aluminium allows. Apart from that, the method of the invention also provides efficient corrosion protection of those components, which are made of non-ferrous metals, such as e.g. copper or copper alloys, such as brass, and nickel base alloys. Moreover, no significant transport of aluminium salts of formation of aluminium containing deposits within the water-steam cycle is observed under these conditions. Therefore, the process of the invention can be broadly applied to water-steam circuits under different operating conditions, i.e. under continuous operation but also under cycling mode conditions or for preparing a lay-up for shut down.
  • internal surfaces is understood as those surfaces of the water-steam circuit, which get into contact with the water or the steam circulating in the water-steam circuit und thus are principally subjected to conditions which may cause corrosion.
  • Typical components of water-steam circuits which have internal surfaces, include but are not limited to steam generators, also called boilers, condensers, coolers and pipes connecting the different components. As further components, they may also include feed water tanks, deaerating heaters for removing corrosive gases from the feedwater, economizers and flash tanks. If the water-steam circuit is part of a power plant it will also have one or more turbines for driving generators. Furthermore, a water-steam circuit may also include a pretreatment system for adjusting quality parameters of the water used for operating the water-steam circuit, such as concentration of salts and pH value.
  • steels types frequently used for the construction of components of water-steam circuits may be high alloy steels or low-alloy steels and include, but are not limited to, e.g. martensitic steels, in particular martensitic steels having a chromium content of 9 - 14 %, such as the martensitic steels T/P92 and VM12/VM12-SHC, austenitic steels and ferritic steels, e.g. low alloy ferritic steels such as T/P24, but also nickel base alloys.
  • Typical aluminium materials include in particular pure aluminium having an aluminium content of > 99 % and aluminium alloys such as aluminium-magnesium alloys, aluminium-magnesium-silicon alloys and aluminium-zinc alloys.
  • the average concentration of the film forming amine in the water used for operating the water-steam circuit is preferably in the range from 0.01 to 5.0 mg/kg, in particular in the range from 0.05 to 2.0 mg/kg and especially in the range from 0.1 to 1.5 mg/kg.
  • the film forming amine is dosed to the water used for operating the water-steam circuit in such an amount that at least during operation of the water-steam circuit the above concentrations are achieved.
  • the term “average concentration” is understood as a time average of the concentration, which means that during the operation time of the water-steam circuit the concentration of the film forming amine in the water used for operating the water-steam circuit is on average within the above ranges.
  • the concentration of the film forming amine in the water must not necessarily be in the above range at every point of time, when the water-steam circuit is operated. Rather, it is possible that the concentration may be outside the above ranges for a certain period of time. However, any period where the concentration of the film forming amine is outside the above ranges will usually not exceed 4 h, in particular 2 h. Moreover, during these periods the concentration will usually not exceed 2 times of the upper limit given above and it will not or only shortly, preferably for not more than 4 h, drop to zero.
  • concentration ranges given above refer to the concentration of the film forming amine in those parts of the water-steam circuit, where the water used for operating the water-steam circuit is in the liquid state.
  • concentration of the film forming amine in the water used for operating the water-steam circuit may vary within the water-steam circuit to a certain extent and not be the same at each and every point of the water-steam circuit. However, the deviation will not be very high and generally the average concentration ranges given above are maintained in any part of the water-steam circuit where the water is in the liquid state.
