41results about How to "Minimizing corrosion" patented technology

Method for mitigating cell degradation due to startup and shutdown via cathode re-circulation combined with electrical shorting of stack

A fuel cell system that employs a process for minimizing corrosion in the cathode side of a fuel cell stack in the system by combining cathode re-circulation and stack short-circuiting at system shut-down and start-up.

Scale conditioning agents and treatment method

An improved scale conditioning composition and method is disclosed that results in improved dissolution and disruption of tube scale, hardened sludge and other deposits composed primarily of highly densified magnetite such as those found in heat exchange vessels, particularly steam generators. After treatment with the advanced scale conditioning composition, these magnetite rich deposits are more easily removed using known and commercially available high pressure hydro-mechanical cleaning techniques. The present invention further provides effective cleaning in a short period of time and at relatively low temperatures, while reducing the amount of waste produced and reducing the resulting corrosion of carbon and low alloy steel components within the steam generator during the cleaning process.

Processes for removing hydrogen sulfide from refined hydrocarbon streams

A method for reducing the amount of hydrogen sulfide present in refined hydrocarbon streams and reducing the amount of corrosion in processing equipment contacting the refined hydrocarbon stream. The method includes adding a corrosion inhibitor to the refined hydrocarbon stream in contact with the processing equipment to protect the processing equipment and adding glyoxal to the refined hydrocarbon stream in contact with the protected processing equipment. The corrosion inhibitor includes an organic soluble compound having a nitrogen-containing ring.

Recovery and re-use of anode oxygen from electrolytic cells

A process and apparatus for recovering a metal from a feedstock containing a compound of the metal. The process includes an electrowinning step in which a leachate comprising a salt of the metal, dissolved in an aqueous acid solution, is subjected to electrowinning in an electrolytic cell, wherein elemental metal is deposited on the cathodes of the cell and oxygen is generated at the anodes. The oxygen generated at the anodes is collected and is then at least partially consumed in an oxygen-consuming step of the process. Preferably, the oxygen-consuming step comprises an atmospheric or pressure leaching step in which the metal compounds in the feedstock become dissolved in a leachate in the form of metal salts, preferably sulfates. The recovery and use of anode oxygen in a leaching process encourages the use of mist-reducing technology in existing and new electrowinning facilities.

Photoresist removing compositions

A photoresist polymer remover composition for removing photoresist residuals generated from etching or ashing sub-processes. The disclosed photoresist polymer remover composition includes: (a) 5% to 15% of sulfuric acid based on the total weight of said composition, (b) 1% to 5% of hydrogen peroxide or 0.0001% to 0.05% of ozone based on the total weight of said composition, (c) 0.1% to 5% of acetic acid based on the total weight of said composition, (d) 0.0001% to 0.5% of ammonium fluoride based on the total weight of said composition and (e) remaining amount of water.

Crossflow air heater bypass

A boiler system includes combustion air conduit for directing the flow of combustion air through a first air heater (e.g., A-side heater) to a boiler and flue gas conduit for directing the flow of flue gas generated by the boiler to a second air heater (e.g., B-side heater). The combustion air conduit is configured to direct the majority of the combustion air to the first air heater, and the flue gas conduit is configured to direct the majority of the flue gas from the boiler to the second air heater.

Corrosion control in and selenium removal from flue gas wet scrubber systems

A method and composition for the reduction of the emission of selenium into the environment from the burning of fossil fuels with the use of two chemistries, either individually or in combination with each other. The method uses polydithiocarbamic compounds, including polydithiocarbamic compounds derived from a polymer produced from acrylic-x and alkylamine in conjunction with a scrubber process to capture selenium and reduce its emission in aqueous phase blowdown. The method and composition also helps reduce corrosion in the scrubber process.
